Fail!

Any track over four minutes gets terrible warbling and skipping on it - and not from the turntable, as the playback sounds fine. Problems arise when the software takes the recording. I'm suspecting an issue with the processor speed (it's only 866 MHz), or the software.

Sorry to hear it, after all that work.

Processor speed? Nothing doing. I used to be able to pull wave files from my Walkman via the line in jack on my family's old 486 when I was a kid, skip-free. There's practically zero load at all for something like that. If you're recording straight to a compressed format, you might be hitting a processor speed issue then. Try capturing to raw .wav first and then transcoding THAT into your final format.

Could be the time it spends writing the file. Could be a memory buffer issue. Have you tried defragmenting the drive? Maybe try a lower quality?

Have you tried re-routing the zip drive through your transwarp inducer?
