Hi Guys,

my sample sorce sounds distorted when recording in, its like its spazzin out from the bass line, but the levels are not over modding, I cant seem to work this out, its real horrible mayne,

Anybody have any ideas what the problem is,??

my speakers are fine, when playing cd's , so its not a speaker problem

yeah those are the basics right there.. make sure your signal going IN is not to hot.
make sure your record gain is low obviously.
and just for kicks, make sure any Direct record features aren't enabled.. like fx, a compressor, filter.. anything.
