Brent,
Basic rule about soundcards (inside a computer housing): NEVER use
the mic input.
NEVER. It sounds like crap. And right now you were giving way too
much input to the soundcard, thus the static-like sound.
You should use line out or phones out of the MD and connect them with
(analog) line in of the soundcard. This way the recorded wave files
will not be as loud as you had before when connected to the mic input.
If you want to go digital, buy a MD deck with SPDIF output ; Kenwood
had a cheap model for 200 dollars with optical and coaxial digital
inputs and outputs (Kenwood DMF-3020). Optical transfer is better
IMHO.
Regards, Evert
