Hi guys
I have an Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor that I use for video editing, but apparently it's a fairly decent sound card in there as well.
I want to start using my computer to record. Currently I get my vinyl and record it to my Sony CD recorder deck.
Then rip the resulting CD-RW
I know about Audacity, and how good it is for editing / recording.
I want to be recording at equivalent CD audio volume - how do I get that??
The creative recording software with the sound card has replaced the windows volume control.
Then there's the recording volume in audacity.
Is it just trial and error to get the right volume level, or is there an easy way?
I often find the volume of my records varies, and when recording to my Sony cd recorder, there's a decibel display and a recording level indicator so I can match it up with a similar volume as a CD playing through my amp.
What's the best way to get this right?
Thanks
Ben
