Hello Chuck, Welcome to the G3 forum, I'm sure you will like it here as the folks are so helpful. I'm rather new here myself....and came here with this same question. I too have a Wings card and was with the same question.
I have found some programs I'd mention to you. Freeware: Coaster 1.1.3 is available here: http://www.visualclick.de/products/coaster/ Pro Tools http://www.digidesign.com/products/details.cfm?template=overview&product_id=2040 Audacity (third one down on this page) http://www.digidesign.com/products/details.cfm?template=overview&product_id=2040 Audacity doesn't come with a Mp3 editor due to it being freeware. They would have to pay royalties for Mp3 and therefore wouldn't be able to offer it as freeware. Audacity suggest "Lame" for PC's and "Lamelib" for Mac's, as it is an opensource encoder. Some people don't like Lame but there are many free Mp3 encoders. Lame http://www.digidesign.com/products/details.cfm?template=overview&product_id=2040 http://www.mp3-converter.com/encoders/lame_encoder.htm all this stuff is freeware and would get you started. The Audacity has some good help/tutorials. We have been discussing lately the merits of the Wings card and the basic personality card which used the special Apple "whisper mic" We've used "Music Match" to go from WAV to Mp3 and back with a 10:1 comprssion. Nearly 20 hours of albums/tapes burnt to one disk with space left over. So, if you wish to check this stuff out...it'll get you started. I got started into audo by wanting to make books on tape. Later to record my albums and old tapes onto disk. Good luck, Joel --- Chuck Martins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi listers, > I'm new to the beige g3 and have a "wings" a/v card. > I would like to > transfer some old cassette tapes onto cd.
