There are bits like this (zoomed in very close) that are producing little clicks:
These discontinuities in the waveform are due to digital errors, most likely to have occurred during recording.
What is the "phone to Jack line in" that you speak of?

Thanks. Seems WASAPI is not available for Windows XP. No it's not. I missed that you said XP. If that is your only computer I would highly recommend upgrading the operating system as soon as possible - XP is no longer supported by Microsoft, which makes it a dangerously insecure system. If you can'...

You Turn on SyncLock, cut the old clip, turn off SyncLock, cut the new clip, reposition the cursor between the now adjacent tracks, turn SyncLock on one more time, and then paste the new clip back in (possibly to the same track). Thanks for posting the solution (useful for search purposes as you sa...

Default playback device is SPDIF-Out. You have Audacity set to play back through "Speakers (Sound Blaster Z). How are you listening to computer sound? Where/how are your headphones/speakers connected? For "input" devices you need to be on the "Recording" tab of the control ...

I am using a Mac. That's important for any detailed instructions, so topic moved to Mac forum. I am attempting to remove the instrumentals from a video soundtrack (.mov). I understnd the process of lining up, inverting etc. and do you understand that the process usually does not work? Will I then g...

Check in the Windows Sound Control Panel to see if the device is working.
Note that for SPDIF you generally need to ensure that the sample rate is set the same everywhere.
