Dazzle

Has anyone used this device with SIA?
I have an old Marantz that has the audio cables built into the turntable. It is plugged into the phono jack on my Sansui reciever. I have audio jacks running from the tape rec (Sansui) to the Dazzle. The Dazzle is an USB device.
I cannot record or recieve any audio when I do the recording level wizard. I do believe that all settings are selected correctly and nothing is muted.
Any help out there?

I had dazzle a few years ago, and boy was it nothing but a pain.

There is no preamp in the dazzle unit, so your turntable probably will not provide a strong enough signal even if dazzle worked.

Can't you just get a cable that has two rca's on one end, and an 1/8 jack on the other?

Here is a link to a nice and inexpensive preamp.
