Hi again Lenny,
You know the procedure, give us the details :wink:

My Turntable - make/model
What sort of output from the TT?
Phono pre-amp?

Do you get anything on the recording meters in Audacity?

hi steve…


ok the turntable is technics sl-bd22
yep a preamp (rolls brand)

output from my turntable?where would i look for that info?i think its a usb turntable.

theres nothing going into audacity nothing on the meters…no waves…

lenny

ps i tried using the on board recorder…it works but again no sound on playback…going in yes coming out no.

Is there a USB lead or a USB socket on the turntable?

So how have you got that connected? RCA plugs from the turntable to RCA sockets on the pre-amp?
How is the pre-amp connected to the computer? An audio lead to the line-in on your sound card or a USB lead or something else?

hi
its got socket and lead usb on the turntable.i have the turntanle connected to the preamp…then out to the line in on the exterior sound card…i dont think audacity is compatable with windows 7 which is on this new computer.
