I wouldn't call CoolEdit2000 (at $70, I think) "inexpensive" but I
suppose that's subjective.
My suggestions for truly inexpensive solutions:
* use the built-in Sound Recorder applet (there's still one of these
in winXP, right?)
* try Total Recorder from http://www.highcriteria.com/
the standard edition should be more than powerful enough to record
simple .wav files (which can then be turned into CD audio with any
CD mastering software) from a microphone input.
The standard version of Total Recorder is $12.

Sound Recorder applet only records 60 seconds of information. I'll take a
look at Total Recorder. Thanks.

I haven't tried 2000, but older versions of Cool Edit would work for
most stuff without being registered. You just couldn't use all the
functions at once. Since all you need is the ability to record and
save, that should be enough. I have CoolEdit 98, and when I start it it
gives me some checkboxes to choose what subset of the functionality I'll
get to have for that session.

Sorry Mick $70 is inexpensive ;-) But it does have 30 days of free use
or some features are turned off...I forget which. I use Cool Edit Pro
for some things, it's $250...and I use ProTools for other things, it starts
at $400 and goes up to about $10k. So what was that about expensive? ;-)
I use the $1000 version of ProTools at home, the $10k version at a couple
of the studio where I do work.
Get Cool Edit 2000 while you can (at least the demo version) as Syntrillium
was bought by Adobe and some changes are coming down the pipe, and they will
likely be dropping CE2000. CEP is becoming Adobe Audition (bad name)

Oh, and a short question: Where can I get something electroplated (1 piece,
not 1000 pieces) in the ann Arbor area? I'd buy a kit, but it looked to be
about $500 (and that's expensive! okay, not as expensive as buying plating
equipment like Marsh Plating has, but still...;-) )

Bad news. Adobe will no doubt suck up what used to be a pretty nice
software package.

Well, we're hoping for better than that, but the track record......
as for now however, as I understand it, Adobe is using the whole Syntrillium
team, so things might be okay.

You can still get CE2K for free, but like previous versions, you can
only choose two features to use at a time. Also, there's a free
version of ProTools called, well, ProTools Free (go figger!) You can
DL it at www.digidesign.com/free. Another good audio editor for free
is Audacity. You can get that from audacity.sourceforge.net.

Thanks. I'm still trying to find the right bits and pieces to do what I want
now, plus give me a bit of growth room for future creativity.

Well, I'm no expert, but I've been doing a lot of reading and
experimenting. Maybe I can help.

I see that Adobe Audition is now available from adobe.com...so there's
probably little more than cosmetic differences from CEP 2.1 at this point.
Also, CE2k looks to be gone....did anyone here grab a copy of that? I wouln't
mind having one in the archives....

Whew! I'm glad I got ahold of CEP. I didin't even know about Adobe's
takeeover until I read it here. I've been using CE since they started
as shareware.

I've got copies of CE95 and CE98. Nothing newer, though.

There used to be a finger address for them, before the World-wide Web was
launched. I _thought_ they closed it down a long time ago. The URL
http:/www.wunderground.com
doesn't work for you?

following telnet address:
telnet://rainmaker.wunderground.com

Okay, what's not eating the Box Elder Bugs? I have seen
quite a few around here. Some brave enough to come into the house.
I don't recall this as a seasonal thing, like the late autumn
buldge in the ladybug population.
