ROGER... Okay....I like the Polderbits Sound Recorder description....Will wait to sign up till I am ready to roll with recording! I went to musicforte looking for your "examples"....what am I looking for actually??? If I have to eventually pay for it...then I will have to pay for it!

PHIL/JOE....Thanks for your idea of the mini-disc recorder & fine instructions for using it.... Somewhere in my "stuff" there is a cassette recorder/player....I think. As my Sony ONLY has a CD burner....I think the Polderbits thingy will be about the best alternative..(I want to call it Poltergeist) :-) Getting additional equipment does not appeal much as my home is a Motor Home....space is limited.

WALTER...Audacity....looks good too! I will spend some time on all these great ideas "soon"....

Thanks for your good help!
