You guys are talkin some kind of fancy tech talk and I think I may be missing something useful and interesting.... Is this thread basically asking "How can I sample from a CD without going through the analog sound card channels?" Is this possible? Can one turn a cd track into a WAV file directly? I've done this using the line out to line in on the sound card with mediocre results. What's the scoop (without too many acronyms, please!). -CF Various people wrote:
