Problem with Cubase

[heybulldog]

The other day I plugged my guitar straight into my computer using a Big jack to Small Jack adapter. Now when I record anything, all the other tracks bleed into the tracks I'm trying to record on. Have I damaged my soundcard?

It also records any audio that might be playing on a different program, like i-tunes. Can anyone help?

#1 Newby Question.

Search for "bleed" and you'll find the answer is in a control panel setting....

you are recording on the output of your soundcard, not the input. if you have a low level soundcard, this is fixed in the advanced tap of the volume control or in the control panel i presume...
