I have connected my mike and used the Wizard to test it. It is OK and the
sound is also ok. I just would like to know where it does record now?

I have a number of drives, internal and external, plus 2 CD drives (read
only and write/read), and I am using WinXP Pro.

What I eventually want to do is take a CD with songs, then use the mike to
introduce the song, then burn that selection with NERO. Then go on to the
next song, etc.

What software do you use?

In your sound card or windows control panel
Sounds/multimedia properites, and windows mixer, set the mic
as the recording device.

Choose the audio application you want to use for recording-
there are many, and if your system was OEM, it may have come
with one, otherwise choose one (Google will find some).

After opening the audio application, depending on how it's
designed you will either choose a destination for the
recording initially (which hard drive folder, for example),
and filename, OR with others you would just start recording
and when finished, specify where to save the file.
Generally you would save it as a WAV file, then later use
your CD Authoring application to drop those wav files into
the appropriate order in the CD compilation dialog just
prior to burning the CD.
 
Thanks. I downloaded Audacity SW program but found a Dutch program,
PolderbitS Sound Recorder and Sound Editor much easier to use and it has all
kinds of filters too, if desired.

It converts all tapes or vinyl records to Digital sounds, even to MP3 if
desired.

I have played with it now for 2 days and like it so much that I purchased it
for $ 32.95, a steal.

It can also be downloaded and tried for 14 days with all functions enabled.
I can now highly recommend this tool.
 
Inexpensive software is often well worth the price. The noise filters should be able to remove noise from records and tape. Not all filters are created equal. I have used WinOnCD to remove clicks from records and random noise from tapes. It does an excellent job without affecting sound quality. Much better than an old version (3.5) of Easy CD Creator.
