help needed: can't record
Posted: Wed Oct 29, 2003 6:05 pm
I ran a cable from the Main Left of my Alesis QS 7.1 Synthesizer to the mic input on my PC, using a Stereo 1/4" Phone (F) to Stereo 3.5 mm (M). For whatever reason, I could never hear my keyboard coming through my computer speakers. If I plug my synth into the Line In on my PC, I can hear it. So I want to record an audio track. I double clicked on the Track and can select from three inputs: Left Realtek AC97, Right Realtek AC97, and Stereo Realtek. I've tried all. I've tried all three possible outputs, too: A Realtek..., B Realtek..., C Realtek. In every case, I arm it to record, but when I play on the keyboard the meter doesn't budge. It isn't the Alesis's volume and I have the Audio Engine button depressed. What could be wrong? Thanks for any help.
