They're just different. There's a spirited discussion about how to get the posters to tell us the computer they have before they get to the problem. We were on the fourth message before we could narrow the conversation down to be useful. Don't lose the commandment that thou shalt record in a quiet r...

And you're putting a preamp in there somewhere, right? Or are you going to go with the software solution? I don't entirely trust the software preamplifiers. To take the RIAA curve out of vinyl music it is required to boost the low frequencies some 20 dB. It needs to dip the highs, too, but the probl...

Y'all are in OS-X. Have you tried trashing the Audacity preference file?
