Yeah, I think I'm gonna try and get one of the Pro sound cards that Keith mentioned - perhaps at Fry's tomorrow. Then I should be able to hook it up no problem. Still not sure about my pc though with all the tons of fans I put in it so I could overclock and keep it cool. Truthfully I have like 12 fans in there. It sounds like a big air cleaner when it runs, and well, I did put filters in it to keep the insides clean and dust free so I think it actually doubles as an air cleaner.
I was also hearing some background hum off my headphones plugged into the speaker jack. So the hum, and the fan noise could be a problem for recording. I think it may also be a little weird / different to sing with the headphones on. I tried that downstairs for a little while on my existing setup with wireless headphones, and I never felt quite right. Seems there was a split second delay that always distracted me from singing the songs as well as possible.
