Echos???  Make sure that any microphone device on your computer is turned off while you're recording, just in case.  Check for that in volume settings & audio settings.

I thought it was the built in microphone, but it turns off when something is in the jack. My computer is just shitty at recording I guess. And I turn down the gameboy and turn it up in audacity. I do this just to avoid static at really loud or congested areas.

Don't turn down the volume knob on the gameboy itself. That volume should always be maxed out cause of the noise floor issues I mentioned previously. You should however be able to adjust system input volume in like a device or control panel somewhere.

Yeah, my microphone makes it sound all static like in loud areas so turning the Game Boy down fixes that. I just need some legit equipment so none of this would be an issue.

yeah, try to evolve away from using a microphone. Direct sound from the jack is what you need to eventually be doing.

No, I am using the jack. That's just how terrible it is!

Invest in a proper soundcard. Most integrated ones are no good for recording.

the cheap way out: little sony voice recorder. plug headphone jack of computer to mic of recorder set it to the highest quality and set computer master volume to 3 or 4.

Logic is what I've been using lately.
Reaper is also nice.

I also want to add: http://forum.cockos.com/showpost.php?s= … stcount=10

You should be able to plug in another known audio source that sounds LOUD and play itback to a result that is also LOUD. That's the beginning of getting a good result  the software and gear are beside the point otherwise.
