When I try to record from line input to my soundcard, I don’t get anything – any ideas?
Bring up your Windows audio controlls (double click on the little yellow speaker in the tray) and select Options / Properties and then click on the Recording radio button… also make sure that in the window at the bottom the checkbox beside Line is selected – now click OK. You should see a mixer for your recording inputs. Things vary a bit depending on your Windows version and your sound card drivers, but you may need to either select or un-mute the Line source, and set the slider for Line to a reasonable level. *Then* try your recording – hopefully you should get something this time.
