I have a piece of software called “Woodstock Chimes SereneSaver” that I picked up some years ago. Apparently it’s still available here and there online — see here, for example<\/a>.  The software very accurately duplicates the sounds of the famous Woodstock Chimes<\/a>, and also has a screensaver element (not of that much interest to me, as it’s a fairly basic slideshow image player, and I have a fair number of those already). <\/p>\n

Anyway, what I’m interested in doing is recording extended chunks of the chime sounds for use as background in podcasts. Does anyone know of any audio software that could straightforwardly capture this sound, while the program’s running, and save the output as an .MP3 or whatever? (I need something with a very shallow learning curve, as I just don’t have time to spend right now wrestling with something complicated.)<\/p>\n

For reference purposes:  my computer has what would have been a moderately high-end audio setup a couple\/few years ago (Creative SB Live!Platinum, I think it is, with the Live!drive jack “console” — the guts of it being a Creative EMU10K1 processor). <\/p>\n

If anyone has any thoughts on this, I’d love to hear them…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
