Jun 01, 2008 12:47 pm If you're using a stock sound card, just run a cable from the main outs of the 802 to the blue input on the PC. You'll need a cable that has two 1/4" male phone plugs on one end and a 1/8" male stereo plug on the other.
Rrradio Shack.

If you're going to be getting into recording on a regular basis, you might want to consider going up to a better sound card than the 'stock' on on the PC. There are as many cards out there as there are opinions, so do your homework (it's worth checking old threads in HRC).
If you do decide to beef up your soundcard, you'll need to consider how you'll be recording (i.e. will you be a "one man band" - one instrument at a time, or will you be recording bands - drums etc.).
Good luck.
BTW Many people here have Behri mixers linked to their soundcards. There's a lot of different signal paths in use too. For now, Herb's got you covered. When you get a different sound card, check back with us.
