Probaly a stupid quesiton, but....how do I record a piano song, and stick it on my computer?

My piano's downstairs, and my mics up here, and I want to record the song down there, and transfer it to up here.

If your keyboard has MIDI in/out you could just use the MIDI cables to connect with your computer, and use a recording software and add realistic piano sounds. (Yeah, 99% identical actually)

As for the piano, I don't know.

Yeah, I know about that, but....I need the piano. Keyboard too small and not efficient enough.

I have a laptop, so I just carry it downstairs to where the piano is. I spent about two hours doing that today, heh. I think you have a desktop? Well, to me it looks like you have no choice but to set it up over at your piano, although that would be certainly time-consuming and a big fuss. *shrugs*

If you think cassette tape is good enough, then record yourself with that. Then carry it upstairs, and use a double-ended analog cable. Hook one end to recorder's phones port and the other end to your computer's mic port. Turn on sound recorder then your tape recorder. This could be useless though since I don't know if those cables even exist. I need one.

Anyone have a good suggestion of a program I can use to record? Preferably free, if at all possible. I need one, and quick!

Sound Recorder or Audacity(it's on SourceForge)
