Hi Tony, I think most WAMUG members who did convert some of their Vinyl Records to Digital (like me) did so years ago ;-)
Are you using the latest version of Audacity - v 2.0.6? I think perhaps you don’t have Audacity set up correctly. Also need to check Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup The Manual is here: <http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/ <http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/>> Mac OS X - You should find this helpful <http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X <http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mac_OS_X>> Download v2.0.6 here: <http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/mac <http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/mac>> Ok I won’t be able to help you anymore today, but other members might be able to.
