Hi all, I have been able to record guitar parts in audacity. It weems to work real fine so far. However I still can't get anything to come through stompboxes2 other than a hissing sound. I guess it just wasn't meant to be. What I intended to do with stompboxes2 was to just play through them at first, with the option of recording through them later. The way I usually record guitars is to tun them through an amp, and mike the amp, the mike going to a mixer, or more preferable the br-008. I'm not too heartbroken over the stompboxes2 being broken because I still have the br-008, and I can always record through audacity ( pretty good ladspa effects there too!). Thanks all who tried to help. This is one "Kick Butt" forum! later, james -- airbrush(a)sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
