Once the wizard starts, click the "Start" button and follow the instructions. (It will have you play the loudest part of the record or tape.) If you see a level, but don't hear anything and are recording off of a USB device, click the "Monitor" checkbox.

If the recording has lots of clicks and pops, select a built in cleaning preset. Once you are satisfied, click "Next"
Step 5: Tag / Name Your Recording
Enter in the artist, album, genre and track names. This will affect how the individual MP3s are named and tagged.
Click "Next" when you are done.

If you want to put it on an MP3 player, make sure it's plugged in and then click "Choose" and select it from the list. Otherwise, choose a folder on your computer. You can also choose a format (MP3*, OGG, WAV or WMA) and click "Details" to change the bit rate and other advanced settings.
