I need to record off the internet radio

[JAMS]

I Like the varity on internet radio,they popup a little player box with no option too record that i can find!
What would be the best recorder to use recording from a pc headphone output?
A good dual cassette recorder would seem ok but what else records anologe audio well or better than cassette?
THANKS FOR ANY IDEAS !!!! JIM

I use cool edit pro... I use a patch cable from the headphone out to the microphone in.

Cool edit also allows you to record whatever is playing I believe.. Its always just been easier to use the mic in.


use a mini to mini patch cable and you're all set. You could record in the background and separate songs later if you wish... whatever...

Ive invested in a hard disk recorder to start replacing my DAT for feild recording, internet radio, xm/sirrus, and pbs speacials the one i use is overkill for you but one like this is pretty handy, great or some on the fly recording of live music also.

I Might Try This

The Alesis tapelink usb dual cassette digital archiver for $199.99 a musiciansfriend item also!
It can record from rca inputs then incodes in digital form to the pc with included software at redbook cd bit rate so you then can make a cd from anologe!
I will look at the hard drive unit you mentioned, user friendly items get a harder look!!
The alesis also takes a cassette and encodes digital,so its an archiver for old music,phono too i think can be done !
well see ,thanks again
Y.T. Jim

Tascam Dr-07

bandphan,ive checked out the info,reveiws,specs.and its really a fine versatile unit,i like the tascam anyway,ive a multi ch live music recorder for years now,tascam has good stuff!
Might get this one,it has stereo inputs and mic inputs for recording so its does anologe to digital at a higher quality than a cassette by far!
Display will require reading glasses though,my reading eyes suck!

Some soundcards have a recording option usually labeled "What You Hear", which allows you to record any sounds produced within the system. Then you should be able to use pretty much any recording software.

hope mine does record

The sound device realtec/97 has options but even advanced menu didnt have the option to record what you hear,or anything like that?
My 250ohm beyerdynamic 880 pro phones are loud enough now without the headphone amp,thanks!
The pavillion pc should do this,maybe a free software for this is around the net?
The pc could be very good quality recording!

SUCCESS I DOWNLOADED PCWin speaker record

PCwin speaker recorder,records anything you can stream that goes thru your spkrs!
I recorded internet radio @ 1411kbps wav files ,and the station was 128kbps and its quality was way good like cd quality!
1.8hrs equaled 1.2GB of memory so i played what i recorded and re-recorded only the songs i liked and recycle binned the original huge file!
Great right,well after putting a playlist of songs on windows media player to burn, it said 11 files had errors but i could continue so i hit burn!
Only one entire song burned,so that sucked real hard!
The dialoge box on try #2 said permission problems also!
Next time i will do it while online and give the player option to seek missing data on files,it might find theres no issue doing these little files!

Seems ive hit a copyright gas pocket,causing backflash on the burner!
ANY IDEAS ARE GREAT IDEAS AT THIS POINT
Maybe i could zip compress the files together ,then ,i dont know!
