How do they sound? If they're mono, do you want to immortalize them on CDs? I just made that mistake . . . 6 times. I don't know a lot about, just what I've managed to pick up in the past week or so, but I wonder if the file headers are correct for what you want to do. gramofile's extracts, for example, makde cdrecord/cdrdao complain, but once they're processed/filtered, all is well. I'd suggest gramofile to capture the audio unless there's a compelling reason to use audacity: you can always edit in audactity later. -- Paul Beard: seeking UNIX/internet engineering work <http://paulbeard.no-ip.org/paulbeard.html>; 8040 27th Ave NE Seattle WA 98115 / 206 529 8400 "Why are we importing all these highbrow plays like `Amadeus'?
