My recording quality from external sources has a foggy, low-quality sound compared to what I would expect. It doesn't matter WHAT external signal I use, whether audio mixer, CD player, cellphone, microphone, the recording sounds very low grade and a foggy distortion-like quality. The exact same recordings attempts "check done" on my Tascam CD recorder is significantly better...

I have a difficult time believing that should be the case.

.

Also, this does not happen when using other DAWs to record. However, I do not want to switch to another editor, as I really enjoy editing with Wavepad and would like to be using it for recording as well.

I am recording in 44100Hz in Stereo.

Perhaps I have some setting incorrect?

Hope someone can help....

I came here to answer same question:

Same...I came to this forum for same problem. It doesn't matter WHAT external signal I use, whether audio mixer, CD player, cellphone, microphone, the recording sounds very low grade and a foggy distortion-like quality. The exact same recordings attempts "check done" on my Tascam CD recorder is significantly better... I have a difficult time believing that should be the case. Perhaps a basic setting I'm missing or is wrong?

I'll post my question on another thread as well...Feb 6, 2015 and no replies may be too old. :/
