Hi Anyone and Everyone who wishes to respond to this post....
I received a Sony 24x 10x 40x internal burner for Christmas. The problem is I have absolutely no idea how I'm supposed to use it. I won't even attempt to install it myself. I'll leave that to someone with expertise
Here's my question(s) and thanks in advance for enlightening this 'rookie'. I posted a thread in another forum and by the about the fourth response my original question had gone off in a totally different direction so I'm asking for a little guidance here.
1.) I'm a choreographer/dancer and need to 'cut and splice' music onto cd's. Other than the burner, what other "tools" do I need to accomplish this.
2.) I've been reading and trying to understand what mp3 and wave files are and what they do but am just having a hard time with it. I do know that mp3's somehow compress lengthy files. Could someone explain it to me in very simplified terms. And, when it comes to burning cd's can I burn straight from MP3 or do I need to do something different.
3.) Also, I know I'll need some editing software. Any recommendations on something that is not too expensive and doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles.
4.) I been searching in my computer to see if I meet the minimum requirements and am having difficulties with finding the size of my soundcard. This burner requires a 16bit card and I'm not sure if my current one meets those requirements. I have enough ram to support the burner and I'm running win98 as well. How do I tell which version I have becuase this burner requires win98 second edition and how do I find out the size of my card?
Sorry for making this post a lengthy one and again thanks for the help.
