Since we're talking about line in recording, then yes you must check the listen to this device box, check the leval of volume just to be safe and make sure you aren't distorting, and there's not much in the defalt format dialogue box. What it will do though if you down arrow to the last choice is tellyou what the highest sample rate and bit depth your line in recordings can be at. For instance, mine will onlydo 96 thousand KHZ which is fine, but at 16 bit. My laptop on the other hand can do full HD 96 thousand KHZ at 24 bit. That's Blu-Ray quality. So there you have it.

I'm about to start trying to record on my PC, and I've got a couple of starter questions for the list. I'll be using Goldwave to record and edit, but my question concerns the settings within Windows 7 itself. Basically, do I need to make any changes to the settings within Recording Devices, or do I just plug in my Line-In cable and only concern myself with the various options in Goldwave? Need I do anything in the Listen tab or the Advanced tab for example? Should the Listen to this Device be checked or unchecked, and what about the Default Format settings when Running in Shared Mode? And, what is shared Mode come to that! As you can tell, I'm seeking a guiding hand! Any advice on which options to select in the Recording devices tabs would be much appreciated. Regards.
