Missed one. Grab the right-hand edge of the sound meters and pull so they're very much bigger. You can undock them, too.

I'm a complete newb when it comes to all this, So you're not shocked if you don't sound like Marshall Mathers/Lady GaGa right away. We have posters that are shocked and upset they can't just press record on their iPhone. I know this isn't the ideal way to do things... I should really practice playi...

Audacity to clean up and make the recordings sound really good.

Digitize a typical sample of one tape and post it. Include a second or two of silence. Export FLAC instead of WAV or use a really high quality (320) MP3.

I have one mixer with selectable 80, 100, 120 filters. You can even buy a stand-alone 100Hz filter. http://www.s...

It should work without any of the analog connections. Pull them out because they're just confusing things. Plug the turntable system in and then start Audacity. Not the other way around.

Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Devices. Do you see your turntable in that list?

Dig in the instructions and see if it requires ASIO driver software. Audacity doesn't support ASIO. The device does show itself in Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Devices > Recording, right? Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Quality > Recording 44100, 16-bit should connect to almost anything. You also...

Audacity > Edit > Preferences > Devices > Playback. Select your soundcard or whatever you're listening to. Windows likes to scramble that setting when you plug a USB sound device in.
