I'd recommend setting Audacity to 32-bit 44100 Hz (44100 Hz sample rate is ideal if the final show is going to be CD or MP3). Adjust the record level so that the highest peaks in the Audacity track are about half the track height. If you''re recording from a USB turntable, yes you can connect the RC...

After adding a label, ensure that you press the Return (Enter) key so as to close the label text, otherwise when you next press the L key it will simply add an "L" to the label text.
