Thank for the referral to tech. I now have the system fully working and have recorded several test auditions. One slight issue, though. On reviewing the tracks (I record in Mono for narration work), they play back normally upon review. After saving, though, and opening for editing and on the same laptop, the audio is distorted, as if I'm speaking from the bottom of a well.
Oh, sure, it lends all kinds of dramatic mood, but I'd really like to avoid this. I've made no setting changes from default, other then to select mono as the recording option. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Until then, I'm smiling mindlessly at my wife and pretending nothing's gone wrong. I think she's getting suspicious.
