Page 1 of Basic PC recording software

I need some basic PC recording software to record from Line In. The Windows recorder will only record for 60 secs. I`ve just realised my new soundcard that I had to buy for XP does not have a reocrding suite. Anyone know of a good free download?

Give Audacity a try. I used it earlier this year to record a radio show & it worked for me

Thanks Labman, will do.

I also use Audacity but mainly to edit and modify sound files.

For simple recording I use the "Absolute MP3 Recorder" software and it`s free as well.

Available here:

Absolute MP3 Recorder

PS. You can also programme it like a video recorder to record at set times.

Thanks also, Inkitin

Audacity worked a treat.

David Gilmour now on cd for the car.

Thanks again Inkitin.

If it was Audacity, I think you need to thank Labman!

The main thing is that you got something that worked for you.

i personally find audacity a little cumbersome for basic recording (its more geared towards multi-track pro recording)

goldwave is OK for two/one-tracking... nagware tho`...

Yes, sorry, thanks again Labman.
