Could one, with an old cheap laptop bought on Ebay, or potentially with an old one I already have that needs repair from Dell, turn it into a good sound processor for my stereo using winamp and sound solution? I want to be able to cut down the harsh S problem I hear in music that doesn't come from FM radio, keep levels more constant, and protect the speakers against those deadly loud blips that you can get from burning stuff on CD.
I am lucky to have a stereo with the required tape loop connections that the tape button will toggle on and off, so the stereo would send and receive the audio the right way. I was planning to put the winamp linerec playlist in the startup, so if it locks up I could just power it off and restart, since I'd like to put the laptop out of the way once I get it sounding good. The problem I see is that since the system plays the audio coming in to the line in without the help of winamp, when I process through winamp, I would have the mixed signal. How could I mute it so I have just the processed signal? Or is it just a bad all-around idea to save old hardware this way? _______________________________________________ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.
