Don't bet the ranch on that working--or working over the long haul. Many, many people have troubles with USB turntables and almost without exception they have different symptoms from each other. That's what's so darn much fun about this. It doesn't matter in the slightest what your symptoms are. You...

Do me a really big favor before you push all the fancy software back in, plug your iPod into the Line-In of your deskside with a simple male-to-male 1/8" stereo cable and try to record its playback in Audacity. Remember to play the iPod after you plug it in or it will stop. Comfortable listenin...

<<<I still have remaining space for over 100 min. recording.>>> That's not always a good number to regard. When you do a Drive > Properties, does it say you have at least 10% of the space left?
