Windows 7. I accidentally deleted the recording icon for the USB Codec. I didn't think it would immediately delete it but it did (didn't need APPLY). How do I get it back?

If you are talking about the "Sound" applet in the Windows control panel, right-click anywhere while you are on the Recording tab and check "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices". If the USB codec does not reappear, make sure the USB cable is properly connected at both ends.

You can read how to set up and record from USB devices on the Wiki.

That worked. Thanks. I never would have thought of doing that.
