right first of all have you installed all the drivers?if not get line6 monkey from line6.comand install gearbox the drivers and the newest firmware if there is one.Don't install the software from the CD it's seriouslyt outdated.I use Adobe audition 1.5 to record.All you have to do is set up the tone how you want using gearbox then in your recording program set the toneport as the sound input then set that track for recording and hit record and away you go.Hopefully that helps if it still doesnt PM me and ill add you on msn or something so i can guide you through it one part at a time.Tony
