Whatever you say.

Regardless, the recording is going poorly. My microphone sucks, and it sounds like a cat getting thrown into a lawn-mower. >_<

Bah. I may end up just doing instrumental.

if you have a audio program like adobe audition or Sound booth you can clean that up

Yeah, try adjusting the equalizer and check to see if your program has a feature called "noise reduction" or "noise gate". Those will get rid of any minimal volume buzzing in the background. Also, if you're mic isn't that great it may react strange to different volumes and pitches, keep your mouth a certain distance from the mic and don't move it untill you are done, also, put some sort of cloth over it to soften the sound (sounds weird, i know, but something like a sock or cloth actually helps ...). If it's too quiet just turn up the volume a bit.

also make sure no other devices like cellphones and such are running interference with the microphone they usually make that kind of noise, so keep them away!!

Thanks for the tip. My editing thing is the CS3 equivalent of Soundbooth, and I'll mess with it accordingly.

Although I've been attempting to get rid of the BG noise, and it's just not sticking too well.

use the lasso tool (i have Creative Suite 3 as well) an highlight the bg noise then go to capture noise print i think then reduce the noise haven't had to do that in a while..
