Shouldn't really. I have the Technics ST-X902L from my wife's old component system (now the only surviving member of the system!) connected to my external soundcard and thennce to the USB input of my PC. This setup produces excellent off-air recordings - the external soundcard has a gain/volume cont...

I am exporting as WAV. And yes, I am able to play them in the media player, and that's where I discovered that certain tracks weren't playing. Do you mean that you can "open" them in WMP but they produce no sound when you press play? If so, do the silent ones play for the expected amount ...

Gale, does this mean that DirectSound shoul...

In 1.2.x go to Edit > Preferences > Audio I/O and check the box that says "Play other tracks while recording new one".

Or if you are using 1.3 (you don't say) Edit > Preferences > Recording and check "Software Playthrough ..."

WC

did you try the loopback cable that was suggested in that article?
