For those wondering what ever happened to SoundCap, the sound digitizer, it has
been bought out by Impulse; it is now called Sound Wave.  I borrowed a friend's
SoundWave equipment once, and was quite impressed.  It was fun to play with.

But 2 days ago, the computer store in which I work received a copy of Mac
Recorder, by Farallon.  It is superior to Sound Wave.  You must see it to
believe it. It includes a microphone, into which you can plug a line in (which
you'd use to record from your stereo).  Also, they give you a cable to hook up
the Mac to external speakers.  And, of course, the sound editing software
(SoundEdit) is included. You get an appplication and 2 HyperCard stacks.  You
can do AMAZING things with Sound Edit, the music editor.  Add echos, change to
backwards, adjust envelopes, flange it, change the pitch, etc.  It samples
sounds at 4 speeds: 5, 7.5, 11 and 22 KHz.

The HyperCard stacks allow you to record and playback sounds, and then paste
them into any of your stacks.

Other features: It has a 4-channel mixer, which will mix up to 4 tracks into
one.  If you have a Mac II and 2 of these pups, you can record in stereo.  Or
on any Mac, you can record each channel separately, and mix them to achieve
true stereo (which could only be played back on a Mac II.)  And it uses color
on a Mac II.

MacRecorder lists for $200.  I can ship anyone (with Visa/MC) a new copy for
$150.  Let me know if you're interested or have more questions.
