Howdy AJ,

First, let me re-iterate the main issue. The recording seems to be very "dry" and doesn't sound full like I'm hearing it as I record it. Even the reverb that I add seems to be missing and the accompaniment is missing the "fullness" that I hear when I'm listening to the sound as I'm recording it. There is no "interference" or "static" or anything like that, it just sounds like it was recorded on a portable cassette recorder with only the condenser mic.

Now for the rest of your questions:
Power Tracks has Vu Meters and I'm definitely not overdriving the input. I have it set so that my max is less than the "clip" limit. As far as cables, I'm using a standard "double RCA to Mini 1/8 plug. I'm using the "out to tape" connectors on the UB1002FX and connecting directly to the "microphone" input on the laptop. There is no "line in" on my laptop.

How do I check to see if I'm recording at 44Khz and 16 bits?

Thanks,
Charlie
