    lower the mic level on your soundcard, get a 3.5 to 3.5 jack cable from the earphone out on your hi fi to line in on pc and do a few test runs, oh and the volume on your hi fi should be lowered as well.

    1- What's your kit ? - Laptop or Desktop?
    2- Is your soundcard built in or is it external?

    DO NOT USE THE MIC INPUT - Most systems record in 'Mono' when you use it.
    Always use the 'Line In' AND 'Mute' the Mic input (click the checkbox in your mixer)
    Set Audacity to record at 44.1Khz Stereo, 16bit, and ALWAYS record to *WAV format.
    Do Not Record     in *MP3 format, you can encode the *WAV to *MP3 @ any bitrate later (it will only take about 10 minutes).

    The less circuts the audio has to travel through means the less noise.

    Eliminate any external mixer and directly hook up your Tape Players Audio Output (or Headphone output) to your computers Audio Input (remember use Line In NOT Mic In). The line-in volume slider on the mixer-input on your computer should be set to about 7.5.
    Run Audacity and set to the specs above then hit play on the tape player (the volume on your tape player should be set at 'zero' to begin with) then slowly increase the volume till you find a sweetspot that does not distort the loudest point in the audio track your recording, (Keep an eye on the led levels on your pc, do not go into the redzone / clip) Settings vary on most all cassette transfares as they are never consistant, you just need to do a couple of tests which will only takes a few minutes.

    The fact that you have already got audio into your computer means your half way there anyhow, you just need to tweek a few setting to get a really clean recording. - Hope that helps :)

    Mmmmm, I was thinkin the same meself, the title sounds familiar. Just can't recall the dj - (or cover, assuming there was1 done).
    Neuron RE-Activators provided below. (Take 2wice Daily - If symptoms reside, consult your DJ ;))

    Team Deep - Morning Light
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WpLZpLnrJE

    (Ahhhh Yes, This hits the spot at about 4:00am)


    SJ - Fever
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GfiPiRnci0

    (There's a nice 'Dominator' hoover sample in this & a cracker TB303 that starts to peak at 2:48, the Vox is kak, as is the last 2mins.)


    Rachel Auburn - Machine Man
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dshMgWLKQM

    (Again, that hoover style sample, this time it's Ramirez, Orgasmico, and there's a cool percussive cowbell type loop / but that JB sample is silly)

    (PS) I've just retrieved them 3 tunes above from my browser cache, - dont bother with them 3rd Party on-line encoders lads. ;)
