turnable to PC

[chazzo]

I know I need to connect the turtable to a mixer then the mixer to soundcrad. But with what wires. Also can I use my stock sound card or do I need to buy another one.

What you need is the RCA at one end and 1/8" inch at the other end (to go into the soundcard). You're using the regular soundcard that came with your computer? That should be fine for now.

Is the quality going to be bad with the sound card i have now?

Well the quality should be fine for basic recording. If you want to get into good quality sound, then you would need to get a good soundcard. For that it's best you search around here for that. Lots of members have asked about which is a good soundcard.

Any soundblaster is tight. If ya gonna go for hi-quality, then they have the different variences,,,,(128MB,256MB, or higher,,,,all the way to 3Gig I hear now,,,

so for just sampling my stock sound crad is OK right?

Yeah it's fine. But like Stresswon said, a regular Soundblaster Live will work even better than the one that came with your PC. And it's really cheap too, you can get a brand new one online for probably $25-$30.
