What about your computer's mixer settings? Do you have Microphone checked off under Record?
Click on the speaker icon in your system tray, then when the mixer comes up, click Options>Properties>Recording and make sure Microphone is shown in your list. Click OK, and make sure Microphone is checked off where it says Select.

U DA MAN FADE!! U DA MAN!! shit! why didnt i think of doin that? anyway, now i got that settled. now another problem has arrived!!! when i record on cool edit on one channel, it only records to one side of the channel. to give you a better picture of what the tascam us 122 is. it has 2 mic inputs. L and R. but does that mean that if i needed to record on both left and right id have to plug in to both ports??

Hey,
If you've only plugged something into one of the mic inputs on the 122, you only need to record a mono file in CEP. Otherwise, it will record silence on the other channel, which is unnecessary.
Take care,

Ok! i tried to change the recording settings but i cant seem to find it. everytime i right click on the channel i want to record in it always says stereo. the other two options are "left only" and "right only". where can i change it to just mono?? PEACE. thanks for all the help btw! this site rules!
i figured it out. ima post this just in case someone else has this problem. i plugged my mic into the Left Mic In on my Tascam us 122. so on the multi track channel, i picked Left only on the Recording properties. that way it only records one side. it seems pretty good to me. thanks for all the help people. PEACE
