For any of you guys who are wondering what happen to this project...
My old computer died on me about a month ago, so I bought a brand new one, but the Standard Windows Vista does not have a recording input (or a computer sound input; not talking about a mic input) so I couldn't record anything. Long story short I got the boot, but I finally managed to get it to work by plugging one side of a jack in an output plug and the other in the mic input. So, the computer can record itself now. (Hoorah!
)
