Audacity Forum

Problem appears to be resolved---it was the gain level knob, which is now set on minus or zero. I wonder if this
is normal and if it affects the quality of the recording----hard to tell with old vinyl.
Anyway, thanks for your helpful suggestions.

Thanks for those suggestions, which I've printed out and will follow.
Everything worked fine with the old Windows XP set-up.....................

In Windows 7 my turntable recording levels are way too high, with distortion coming through speakers.
Settings in Sound---microphone, speakers, etc---appear correct. What setting in Windows or
Audacity still could be incorrect?
