Sounds like you need a preamp...

I'm making a PC recording from Mini-Disc right now, myself.
(The Dementors concert from ConFusion 2003).
LIne in of the Vaio PC sound card is doing good enough, but
I do use a DJ mixing board to control volume. It goes into the
SoundForge XP sound editor from Sonic Foundry. The full suite
(which I don't have) can be an expense program. I think this editor
would be about $90 if you find it by itself. Very percise editing
is possible. I can shape fades (in and out) within whatever time
frame. By placing markers in a big file (such as taking in concert),
a double click to select between two markers allows me to copy and
paste to a new file. Which is what I will want to do on this one,
so I can have the tracks on the CD touch each other without
silence between the tracks.
It also has pitch control. But instead of me wanting to
make something double speed, I have to increase the pitch by
12 half steps of an octive. It thinks in music more than I
do. Swap tracks, mix to mono, volume changes, dynamic expansion,
and more stuff than I seem to be able to learn.

Hmm, I misremembered Tim's response above as an endorsement of Cool Edit,
which is a product he doesn't mention at all. I'll have to look up
SoundForge now.

I'll endorse Cool Edit Pro. It's an amazing program for $249.
The noise removal algorithms are quite good, lots of other features,
although a bit of a learning curve of you've not used similar editors.

I'm currently setting up a Linux box to try out a bunch of the Linux
audio tools that have cropped up as of late....actually not so much cropped
up as matured to the point of solid usability.

I'm definitely curious about Linux audio these days - I had put together a
pretty nice set of programs to do basic stereo stuff (mostly moving vinyl to
CD) but never took it any further.
