presets recording radio broadcast ?
I want to link my radio tuner seperate to my desktop Mac to record an opera broadcast. I have a Belkin RCA Audio Cable, and I also have an iMic.
Would I get the best results connecting the cable directly into the 'audio in' port, or into the iMic and connect the USB end in of the iMic?
In GarageBand I have gone the route of New Project / Voice ; then +(create a new project) at the bottom left of the new GB window, and highlighted 'real instrument' . . . what options in 'instrument setup' should I select ?
In the 'browse' tab there are a number of selection options at the bottom ; likewise in the 'edit' tab there are a number of selection options.
Is it important to make specific selections prior to recording, or does it not matter, and one can tweak post-recording ?
I am also confused by the numerous audio level controls there are in the window : as well as one top left and one at the bottom, there is also one in the 'browse' tab, as well as an 'automatic level control' check box ! Which do I need to actively select ?
Grateful in advance for any help offered.
