MC noting recording!

sorry error in title!!

Thanks for that, my sound card (audio capture)is external so is connected via usb to computer. Which means a lot of the normal volume controls aren't available on computer, because you can control these with the dials,etc on sound card - edirol sort overrides the computer sound control so to speak.

I recently made the error of saying yes to upgrade my itunes with a pop up window which stuffed all my audio devices. I had a guy come in who reinstalled everything, got computer sound, speakers and edirol working again - before he left I opened music creator to make sure this was still working and it played back perfectly and still does, but didn't think to check if record would work. I hope the sound card hasn't been stuffed. I also have Sonar LE and the same thing is occurring. It just weird that I can play everthing through the sound card computer sounds, music files, cds, etc. but not record.

One thing I want to know is whats the difference in drivers when both have same name but one has MME in front. The MC accepts the driver without the prefix, but does not support format for one with MME in front.

With more a background info, can anyone shed some light for me.

Problems fixed, I unplugged and replugged the USB sound card. Then went to start button, then selected RUN typed in MSCONFIG clicked OK. Menu came up and selected NORMAL START UP, computer went through loading all device drivers and then restarted. Went back into music creator after system rebooted, and to my joy when enabling the record button I saw green lights finally come up on the audio register. Amazingly I had shut down the computer, done system restore and everything before. But this time bingo baby it worked. I hope the above helps some else when confronted with this problem.
