I've used RecordPad with a PC in the past with no problems. But I just got RecordPad 2.10 and loaded on two separate Macs running Mac OS X (10.4.10) and a different computer running Mac OS X (10.3.2). After about 30 seconds I get constant ticking in my recording. I have tried everything from different microphones (internal and external USB--Samson C03U), different MP3 recording settings, recording as a WAV or AIFF file. The only thing that sometimes works is if I put my recording levels down to nearly nothing then there is no ticking, but then I don't get what I paid for: a way to easily record files that can be heard. Anyone else had this same problem? I guess I made a mistake in buying 15 copies for my school to use to record music lessons. I should have tried before I bought. On top of it, I didn't think I'd have any problems so I have no tech support---so no answers to my problems. (I accidentally wrote WavePad instead of RecordPad. I edited my original posts to reflect my original questions.)
