Well, I just use the little digitizer that came with HyperStudio. If I want
to record a sound off of the VCR or TV, I do this:

1. Hook up my tape deck to the TV (via a little box that splits the sound
into two wires).

2. Record the sound I want to digitize onto the tape.

3. Hook up a wire going from the earphone jack of my stereo to the microphone
jack in the back of the computer (The wire and the microphone jack both came
with HyperStudio!).

4. Use Sound Shop (came with HS) to record the sound.

5. Then, if I want, I can use Sound Studio to change it into a normal BIN
sound file, and then compress it with ACER.
