Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Byron,

     Thanks for the advice.  I checked out the sound recorder that comes with my sound card and it
records a whopping 60 seconds.  Short of limiting my piece to this time frame, does anyone have
any ideas as to how I can get analog line in from my XL-7 to a .wav file on my puter?

Yes, that would be a wav file you need. You don't need any fancy program's
or virtual studios just to record a single stereo track....just run the
stereo main outs of your xx7 into the line-in of your sound card (you'll
probably need a stereo rca to 1/8" jack audio cable with 2 mono 1/4"
adapters for the rca side...or something that equivelates to the same). Then
use an audio recording program to record the line-in input. Your sound card
surely came with at least a simple one. Since we're only doing raw direct
recordings, no pre/post mastering, you don't need any extravegant programs.
Then take the wav file the recording produced and open it up in LAME and
compress it into a a 44khz mp3, was 192kbps the highest rate of encoding? If
so, use that setting for best quality results.

I'd be happy to help you convert your XX-7's output to an MP3 for the contest 
if your in need as were both Seattle based. I have a M-Audio Delta 1010 
audio system on my Mac that has great A/D converters +SPDIF, as well.

NOTE: For any interested, the M-Audio (Formerly Midiman) hardware sounds 
great if your looking for audio hardware for Mac or PC.
