Whats up guys,
I just ordered a creative audigy2 ZS for my laptop, primarily for the logitech z5500's i'm ordering and to use it with my dvd player. (i got it from zipzoomfly for 86.99 plus $30 mail in rebate) However, I realized that I might as well take advantage of the new hardware and do some recording for fun.
Whats the cheapest way to record my bass/guitar onto my laptop? Is it possible to use the software that creative provides and just get a 1/4'' to 1/8'' adapter and plug a guitar straight into my laptop and record some stuff? or can i plug my bass into my bass amp, then use the line out into the laptop? here is a list of software they provide:
* Creative Audio Console
* Creative Diagnostics
* Creative Speaker Calibrator
* Creative MediaSource DVD-Audio Player
* Creative Speaker Settings
* Creative Smart Recorder
* Creative SoundFont Bank Manager
* Creative THX Setup Console
* Creative Surround Mixer
* Creative Graphic Equalizer
* Creative WaveStudio
* EAX Console
* Sound Blaster Performance Utilities
* DTS Neo:6 Settings
* Windows Drivers
What do you guys think? Any help is appreciated.
I also have a $10 generic brand microphone that I could just put infront of my guitar/bass amp, haha.
