Dear folks,

I must be stupid but I looked around and nowhere I seemed to find this information:

If I play a MIDI track using a sound card, can I record the sound thus produced onto the same computer as a .wav file?

The reason I asked is because I tried the simple thing, connecting the input of the soundcard to its output, and what I got was a screech of feedback (the noise from the analog cable just got multiplied).

Do I *have* to have an external expander? Or do I need two soundcards? Or is the solution so obvious and has escaped me?

Thanks in advance!

Giovanni
