The biggest issues are the the drums and bass far overpower the guitar and vocals You can reduce the amount of bass (low frequencies) and boost the mid range (middle frequencies) using the Equalizer (in the effects menu). and that there's an ungodly amount of static accompanying the drumline Nothin...

As I explained in my original post, I can use (record in) 1.2.6 with no issues but for the sake of argument I did try sound recorder and I had no issues there either.
