No other version ever on this new computer (About a year old)
Question, Should I be able to plug in an MP3 player into all 4 of the ins in my Delta breakout box and use Windows Sound Recorder to confirm that I’m able to record to all 4 channels at the same time?
I just did a test and if I try to record I’m able to using INS 1 & 2 but not 3 & 4

does windows sound recorder record more than 2 inputs?  I thought it was 2 inputs only as well, but I could be wrong about that.

Ok, I did a system restore from the 1st of last month and did all my Windows updates one at a time to see if I could figure out what broke MC4. As of now, all my updates have been applied and I have rebooted about 10 times and MC4 is working like it did in the past. I have attached a screen shot of what I now see under Track Properties. When it wasn’t working I only had the top three.

Thanks to all who offered advice. If it breaks again I will update to Sonar X1
