and set cool edit to record at 16bit 44.1Khz, your cheap ass soundcard probably doesn't support 48Khz playback

Yeah...it's sound like rice crispies if you're trying to play back 48K. Same thing if you're trying to play back 32 bit with an older card. Just digital shit.

Okay, so where are we...did you get left and right to work? I got the sense from one of your posts that you DID get it to record in stereo...but that the level meters disappeared on record and you were getting a lot of distortion. Should be fixed by the "show levels on play and record" thing mentioned earlier, as well as by setting everything to 16bit/44.1 -

If you still couldn't record after that, I assume you threw your computer out the window and won't be posting back.
 
Well, this is ironic. Hey man, did you ever figure out what your problem was?

I just installed a new soundcard on one of my computers, and it is doing the EXACT same thing, I think. Everything is running through the line in....when I play a DI'd guitar through a preamp into the line in, I can hear it fine...when I double click on the meters, I'm getting good levels...

....BUT AS SOON AS I HIT RECORD, THE LEVEL METER GOES TO NOTHING AND IT'S NOT RECORDING?!?!?!?!?!!?!

WTF?
 
Hey whats going on chris? The problem isnt fixed, no. But my step dad came in last night from a trip and its 7:15 in the morning right now. Once he wakes up ill bitch to him...it always goes like this. I get a problem, I run downstairs and tell him somethings up. And he comes up and tries it out and it works perfectly and I look a) nuts or b) just simply inept. But I have faith that he'll figure something out, and if I get any adaptable info, ill certainly pass it along. The problem with computers is that they seem fragile to me, something that might work and might not. When when it doesnt work, you cant just take it apart and look inside.
 
Hey man...let me know if you're still having problems...I learned a LOT about CEP on Friday, lol. Maybe I can help....probably not, but MAYBE, lol.
