Nope, you're absolutely right, Diki. I just used software and the OEM sound card to make all my recordings, many of which can be found at PSR Tutorial. Never really found the need to spend the money on a high-priced sound card, faster PC, and lots of other things, particularly when no one seemd to know the difference. Granted, some recording engineers and folks such as yourself would likely have hear those noises you spoke of, but I couldn't hear them, so I assumed my clients didn't hear them as well, especially while driving along in their cars and listening to the CD.

In my case, the songs were used for both fun, and of course, promotional purposes on giveaway CDs.

Cheers,

Gary
