what do you call that thing you use so that you can plug your guitar lead into your pc's microphone input thingy? (sorry if all my terms are wrong.) i wanna record my guitar playing properly instead of using a cheap mic, hehe. so yeah, i need to know what it's called so that i can buy one.

you dont use any "thingy" to plug into a microphone jack on the PC. go get a proper guitar interface such as the Line 6 Guitar Line that uses a USB interface on the computer to record guitar. not only will you able to record guitar, you can jam to backing tracks, uses effects, and record a good guitar signal to use as a building block to make music on the computer.

really? :shock: i swear i used one back in music tech in college but i forgot what it was called... it was this little thing i plugged into the pc's mic jack and then i plugged my guitar's cable into it so that i could record. but anyway, ok, around how much is that thing you mentioned? sounds expensive, haha.

there are a lot of choices floating around - check yoour local guitar store for an idea on how much these units cost brand new - if you can find one used, those might work out better for you if you go that route.

You just need a DI box.
GUITAR-->D.I. Box-->PC SOUNDCARD LINE-IN
Now what will you use as your amp? If you do VST instruments then try these free stuff:
