Hello,
I wish to record my vinyl using MAGIX and the red and white USB magix device. I have plugged the cable correctly, Plugged the USB device into my computer. It is recognized and up and running (device manager)
But when I wish to record a vinyl no sound is recoded.... When I check in de windows (windows 7) Mixer the USB device is present but indicated no sound in entry....
WHy do I have to configure to get it working ???
THanks

Hi,
As far as I know, the Red and White USB device is designed for line level audio and video and does not include a phono pre-amp. So if your turntable does not have a line level output (many do not), this device will not produce enough output for the audio to be recognized
You either need this device which does include a phono pre-amp
or you could try hooking up your existing device via the headphone output on your receiver/amplifier using an adapter cable such as this one
If you use this approach, make sure that the single connector (the black one here) is the same size as your heaphone connector. Also, when you go to play back your audio through your amplifier, start at a fairly low volume and start turning it up to a point where your device can recognize the signal at a level where you do not get distortion or "clipping".
Good luck,
George
