I have a simple little usb-thingy that I want to record sound from. It shows up just fine in audacity, but when I press record with it set as the input device, audacity freezes completely, and I have to kill it. I've tried ecasound and qarecord, but I couldn't really make any of them work. Anyone have any experience with this? Should I just try an older version of audacity? Just looking for some hints before I start the whole downgrading process (the older, "stable", version of audacity comes with the thingy, so that's supposed to work). Arve
