I had this same problem. Independent of which programme I used to record sound; same problem when recording from line-in or direct from the PC (e.g. internet radio). Couldn't find any settings to change on the sound card relating to sound effects applied whilst recording. However, following advice on another forum, I simply updated the drivers for my sound card and all now seems to be fine (I suppose it could simply be that settings are now restored to factory settings, and that's fixed it!)

Thanks for the feedback andyturner.
Yes it could have been a driver problem and yes it could have been that settings are now restored to factory settings. Anyway, good that it's fixed.
Driver problems are very common on Windows 7 as it is still relatively new, so in the event of any sound card problems users are advised to check that there sound card drivers are up to date.
