I'm New ! HELP!!!

GtrPlyr4u	Date: May 10, 2005 @ 10:34 PM How do I record myself playing guitar? What do I use to record myself? I have no idea how to get started or what to do! HELP!!!!!!!
Shackleferd	Date: May 10, 2005 @ 10:57 PM Perhaps the absolute crudest method would be to plug in to your computer's mic input while using some kind of freeware like Goldwave or something. Personally I use a Fostex MR-8 that records on a flash card that can slip right into the front of my pc, or through digital line out. Then I'll mix and polish using Cakewalk's Guitar Tracks Pro.
GtrPlyr4u	Date: May 10, 2005 @ 11:19 PM Goldwave? What other freeware is available? From reading around, it seems like using the Windows Recorder and a dud mic plugged into the computer is like dinosaur technology. Is there recording freeware available that I could save as a file, then upload onto DMusic? Am I understanding all this correctly? I feel stupid not knowing the right questions to ask.Are there any step-by-step instructions anyone can offer to get my music up on DMusic? I just got turned on to this site tonight and I need to know what to do to start recording and posting my guitar playing. Thanks!

GtrPlyr4u	Date: May 11, 2005 @ 9:12 PM A lot of information, but, not exactly what I was inquiring about. Anyone else have any suggestions?
Shackleferd	Date: May 12, 2005 @ 1:48 AM Yeah, I realised after reading into it deeper that wasn't exactly what you were looking for, but how's this: http://mp3.about.com/od/homerecording/ If this doesn't answer enough then I'd suggest sending the site admin an e-mail and/or starting a thread in the help forum.
Shackleferd	Date: May 12, 2005 @ 2:00 AM Or I just found this...(I'd say I've earned a listen to my tunes) http://www.wholenote.com/default.asp?iTarget=http%3A//www.wholenote.com/cgi-bin/page_view.pl%3Fl%3D6868%26p%3D1%26a%3D0
