:if that thing is a tapedeck why do you want to record all that hiss?
if it's a minidisk check this out.
soundblaster just came out with a great new card, yeah soundblaster!
it's called the live VALUE, not the live, but the live VALUE.
it's about fifty bucks, but it has an option that works great for us musicians, a digital I/O daughter card that has optical and rca!
you have to get this upgrade through soundblaster.
if you want to do 4 tracks just record 8 clicks up front
transfer 2 tracks then sync the next two to that.
remember, this way you are only using one set of DACS, and it ain't the $50.00 SB, it's just an I/O port.
