How to record sound directly from output

audioaudio recordingconnectionmicrophone

I'm not sure if I'm asking the question right, but I want to record sound, by connecting its output to my pc's mic input. Is this possible ?

I have a Line 6 POD 2.0 guitar processor, and a big jack to small jack adapter (see the image) , but I don't have any external audio card, so is there a way to record sound from it, without an external microphone, which causes noise ?

Will this work ?

You get what we call a line-in input. It is much less sensitive that the mic-in port and every motherboard should have one (the port colour is blue) by default. You can go to sounds options > recording devices to enable this port. Then go to your recording application (like Audacity) and select the line-in for recording.
