Can someone help me understand why I'm getting such poor quality on a
tape I'm trying to transfe to CD?

The software I'm using is Free Sound Recorder. I'm feeding the output
of my Technics tape deck to the Line jack of my PC, and I'm recording
it as a WAV file. When I listen on headphones, plugged in to the tape
deck, or on the speakers connected to the Output jack of my computer,
the tape sounds fine. But when I use Windows Media Player to play it
back, I hear a *lot* of distortion.

The file size looks OK, i.e. the sampling rate is at least 44Khz.

What am I doing wrong???
