I'm trying to record from a cassette player into my laptop using Sony Acid Music Studio 7.0 but the recording is horribly maxed out distortion wise. The recording is competely in the red, although underneath it, I can still hear what I'm trying to record, so I know it's coming through. I've done cassette recording once before with the SAMS 6.0, a different laptop, a karaoke machine, and the same cable (a simple same-end TRS jack). I doubt it has anything to do with the equipment I'm using, but I don't know. Anyone have any suggestions as to setting that need to be changed on my laptop or in SAMS? I'm not doing anything professional, so it doesn't have to be perfect. But I would like to get it as clean as possible without buying any other expensive equipment to do so. If I need a better cable or something that's relatively inexpensive, I'd love to hear any suggestions. Thanks for the help!
