| 885247 | 2010-05-16 05:06:00 | Want to use my Asus web book to line-in from an output on a record player. I tried to do it through the MIC-IN and reset the properties of the mic input to a line-in condition. There is no LINE-IN. So far - it isn't working. get the pop-up telling me I've inserted a device, although it doesn't know what it is in all likelihood prolly. I can get the built-in mic to hear me and 'listen' too as I talk, but the music isn't there. I get the inputs grayed-out in Audacity and when I click the "RECORD" button, it says there's a fault in a driver. Huh? I thought the jack works with the legacy system in the mobo - right? |

| 885249 | 2010-05-17 07:19:00 | Which model and OS Joe? Is the output a Line out? Or a phono signal? Sorry - I wuz gone a while today and missed your answer . Asus 1005-HAB Netbook- Win 7/Starter The jacks on the Asus are 1/8" T-S-R and they are icon'd as headphones and mic . I can run headphones or a stereo preamp or regular stereo speakers out of the headphones jack . The instructions say I can make the mic-in act as a line in as a setting - yeah sure! . Tried it/did it and it fails to do anything as a line-in - BUT here's the strange part::: In the mic settings I can tell the built-in speakers to 'hear' the built-in microphone and they do! So - if I am running the legacy mic, the speakers repeat everything they hear - but with something plugged into the line-in, nope! I've got a record player (see where this is going?) and it has RCA-outs that are line level . All I want to do is shove the output into the input and create MP3s with all the records I have . Yes - the record player dual RCAs are LINE OUTS . But No-o-o-o-o-o-o! (thanks Steve Martin) |

| 885251 | 2010-05-17 09:17:00 | Have you tried the mixer. Right click the speaker icon bottom right of screen and select open volume mixer. Are all the sliders up? |

| 885252 | 2010-05-17 10:26:00 | You might need the manufacturers' driver not the generic Windows one (if that's what you have) from the look of this. (what audio chip does it have?) wiki.audacityteam.org Softpedia reckon this is the latest one. drivers.softpedia.com Wait! read this from the Audacity page! In a similar way, Windows Vista and Windows 7 always treats recording sources as "devices", so on this operating system the selector will always be greyed out and input sources must be chosen in the Audio I/O tab. So try that before changing drivers. |
