Hey Allison!I'm not sure which sound card you're using, but I've got a sound blaster Live Audigy 2 and it's got a feature called What You Hear. Without getting too technicle, the upshot is that if you have it turned on, you can record everything going through your sound card and have it either broadcasted or recorded somewhere. So, I'm wondering if maybe you couldn't use that type of feature to just sing over the top of your tracks and save them as mp3 files in either goldwave or sound forge? You can find out what kind of sound card you have by going to your windows volume control. Then, go to properties. Tab around in the dialogue there and then you should hear something like, "mixer device combo box", and then it'll tell you which one you have. For example, mine says SB Audigy Audio FF80, and it's the only one in the list. So if you have that kind of sound card, or something very similar to it, what you'd want to do is to stay in that particular dialogue, and then you'd find the radio button that says, adjust audio for recording. then if you tab over, you'll see a list of components you can possibly control. Not all of them may be checked, but I'll betcha most of them probably are. So look in that list there, and if what you hear is there, and it's not checked, it's as simple as checking a box and then pressing the ok button. Now you'd be in a series of controls, so you could just tab around and when you find the what you hear option in the list, if it even exists this is, but if it does, this is where you can make fine adjustments. This way you could get your volume levels perfect. Then if all goes well, you *should* be able to start Sound Forge or Goldwave recording, and then play your music and then sing over the top of it and save it as an mp3 like you wanna do! Hope this helps. if you need more help, write me offlist and I'll try to help you more if I can!
