I'm new to manipulating sound files. I'd like to input my dad's oral history and some ethnic music from cassette tape into my eMac. I have the cord that goes from the output of the recorder to the audio input of the eMac.
What do I need on board to record the sound? Please stay relatively inexpensive. I'm a media specialist. Thanks kzwy |

I've been using SparkME available here: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo...fo/macosx/12586
It is a nice application designed for OS X and best of all, it's free.... Audacity is also good and free as well: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo...fo/macosx/15063 |

As for the input quality of an onboard soundcard it should be sufficient for voice recording (and of course recording will work). You might want to look for the Griffin iMic. A USB-powered audiocard on a cable and it provides better input than the onboard audiocard. And it's only 35 dollars (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic/index.html). As for recording software I've been using 'Coaster' lately. A simple app with not a lot of options and does what it is supposed to do: recording. The downside is that it is a Mac Os 9 app so you do have to boot into 9 (if you have installed it).
