Ardour recording

[Wesley Stout]

I will give that a try when i get home thanks again for all the info.
I have been researching this today while "working" :) should have just
brought the blasted laptop with me. I'm pretty sure the connection
should be good. I switched over to Vista and used Audacity to record a
little guitar track and it worked very well. I am guessing just need
to play with the input source until something works?
