the only other thing I would check is your environment vars (your path
etc).
create a script
--- <cut-here> ---
#!/bin/sh
. /etc/profile
/location/to/analog >>/some/file 2>>/some/file
--- <cut-here> ---
To ensure that you have the same environment vars that you have when you
are logged in as root.
If this STILL doesn't work. Your cron may be messed up.

ps. you also may want to change /bin/sh to your root's shell.
