Andrew, The user's manual has a very easy to follow, step-by-step list of instructions for doing this. Actually, it is for recording records, but the procedure is the same for just about any type of recording. The manual is very well written. It is a fully linked HTML document and is in the Goldwave directory. I think you can get to it through the help system, but I prefer to open it in a separate window so that I can alt-tab between it and the actual program when I'm trying to learn how to do something so that I can experiment.
The only thing I don't like is that I can't figure out how to monitor the recording, e.g., hear what's going on. I don't know if this is a limitation of the program, my sound card, or what. This makes it difficult to know, for example, when the part of the tape, album, etc. you're interested in is over. I currently do it by timing. The editor is so easy to use that trimming off unwanted material is a snap. I just let the tape, album, etc run longer than I know the piece I'm interested in is and then stop the recording and trim off the unwanted parts. Also, it makes it a little difficult to set the recording levels. But that can be done by experimentation.
