Thanks to everybody who helped. The last problem I fixed was that the speakers were plugged into the mike in instead of the line out jack. (Not the original problem -- I'd been playing with that a lot recently.) I'm sure lots of the other problems were necessary to fix, too. -- Laura (mailto:lconrad@xxxxxxxxxxxx , http://www.laymusic.org/ ) (617) 661-8097 fax: (501) 641-5011 233 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02139
