I appreciate the help. I've stopped recording because this problem is bugging me.
Okay, first off, my onboard soundcard does not work. Which is why the M-Audio Mobile Pre acts as an external soundcard. I don't know if this has anything to do with my problem. The m-audio interface(external soundcard) is powered completely by the USB bus from my computer.
I am using Cool Edit Pro 2.
Okay, I have my piano hooked up to channel 1 on my board. Then, I run a "RCA to 1/8" inch jack" from the rca "rec out" on my board, TO the M-audio interface's stereo 1/8" input.
I use the headphone output on the interface for playback.
Thanks guys.
