Question 2

Does the Audacity software include the Lame program so that wave files can be exported as mp3?

Accepted Answer

To m Joseph who said there’s no volume correction, that’s incorrect. You can boost the sound level in a number of ways. There are tons of effects including a graphic eq to maybe punch up a recording, or lower the high frequencies to silence hiss. It has an amplifier effect too. However you can’t do it as it’s recording, you have to wait until once it’s all recorded and you see it looks/sounds too low in volume.  If the whole recording looks/sounds too low, you hit select and “choose all” then go to “Effects”, which drops down a list of all the effects. You want “amplifier” and click it and it will recommend the highest it can go without clipping (overloading), I always go with a little lower than they say as it can distort very easily.

Do it right and you’ll be amazed at how easy it all was and how much better your stuff sounds, Digitally!

Also to get the input connected, plug in a sound source to test it out. If you hit pause and record you should see the sound meter moving. If no sound and you’re absolutely sure there’s audible content coming across those red and white cables and you’re sure you checked everything is plugged in and you have the mic input set to 100% - and no sound - you just may have to select the input from the drop down list. Just under the red dot record button. You should see a pic of a mic next to the box.

When you find; “Microphone Array USB PnP (Audio Device”).  - that’s it! This device! So click on that and you should now see the sound meter picking up the test material you’re playing. Works best with line level inputs. Like don’t use a headphone out jack and into the V-TOP Device bc you can raise and lower the sound but it may make it too loud for your recording.

Myself, I used the “line out” on the back of my stereo, and it works flawlessly. I originally tried the line out directly from the cassette deck and the sound was not as good, but the Onkyo receiver was giving it a smoother sound so I recorded out of the “line out” jacks on the back of my Onkyo Amp.

Thing works great. Also Audacity for Windows is now called Audiotonic and yes this works with that too.

Great product. Great price. And fast shipping.  Also besides Mp3, you can save it in WAV, ALAC, and FLAC.

Question 3

what plugs into what?

Accepted Answer

For example: usb2.0 plugs into PC,  white and red audio connect with DVD,  or 3.5mm Audio plugs into cassette recorder

Question 4

will this work with USB 3.0?

Accepted Answer

I am not sure but would think that the USB standard for 3.0 would itself be backwards compatible with devices for USB 2.0.  My experience is that your PC and the software you are going to use to capture the audio with (I used GarageBand on my MAC PC) is the most complex and important area to master.  Good luck!
