Hi Rick , What's up??
 From the deepest of his mind, Rick Mcbroom dare to say to Cameron Hall:
 RM>  With a line-in recording, it's even worse. To get good transfers with
 RM> my OmniWriter, I use this routine;
 Let's see.. :)
 RM>  1. Record the line in source to the hard drive as a .WAV file, using
 RM>     CoolEdit software. Note that each song must be a seperate .WAV
 Yeah, I use Cool Edit too.. It's a great program..
 RM>  2. Listen to the .WAV file, to verify that I didn't get any buffer
 RM>     under-runs. You can dispense with this if you're brave.. while not
 There's no need for this.. If you have enough memory and enough buffers you
 will be sure that there's no clicks/chops in the audio file.
 RM>  3. Convert the .WAV file to .CDR format. This takes place at aprox.
 RM> 6x to 8x speed.
 I don't understand why you must convert to that format. It's only with
 your CD-R? I have a Panasonic writer and I just grab the wav files and
 burn them to cd audio tracks..
 RM>  4. Burn the .CDR files to the CD-R at 2x, with "test-before-write".
 RM> So it's real-time, in effect.
 I never use test-before-write and never had problems.
 RM>  As you can see, it's a time consuming process. It takes me 3-1/2 to
 RM> 4  hours to make a CD-R with 60 minutes of music content,
 It takes me 60 minutes to record in real-time in wav format, about 10 more 
minutes for spliting tracks and then +/- 17 minutes to burn it to a
 cd at 4x. Four hours is insane.. :)
