This was the method i used many years ago when i started home recording, but it was with a desktop instead of a laptop so my experience may be different from yours. My soundcard was onboard with the motherboard so i was always getting hum from the cooling fans and weird chirps and buzzing noises from the mobo (especially when it accessed the hard drives). The noises were always quiet yet perceivable by anyone listening. I dont recall the specifics but i think the noise was right around -35db. This made noise gating problematic and its was loud enough to hear in any quieter recorded tracks. I tried notch filters but they always seemed to carve away more good stuff than bad.
The long and the short of it is: give it a try, but dont bet any money on it. --Brett On Mon, Nov 15, 2010 at 10:58 AM, Fábio Magnoni <fabiohmagn...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hey guys, > > I have a Line 6 X3 Live and I posted here sometimes about how to record > using USB cable.
