It needs to read the audio coming in from Dazzle...since it spikes and causes the static effect on the actual software given (it only has Max and Mute...lazy bastards).
I already tried Audacity, and that couldn't take in the audio from Dazzle for some reason...
Help?
Audacity is the best free one you're gonna get. I know there's also SoundForge, but I don't believe that's free.
Try Goldwave.
I'm not sure if it will help you with your problem, but it is free and worth testing out.
unmute stereo mix and turn down recording volume to the second notch or less on your computer's recording control?
REAPER isn't free, but it has a pretty long trial.
USB TV Tuners often have messed up sound things.
I would personally suggest getting a RCA->TRS adapter (TRS is the connector used for standard headphones, RCA is what video game systems output) and connecting the games' sound to your computer's Line-In port (should have a blue color). When it's connected that way, Audacity is sure to recognize it. That's what I use for my TV tuning.

Uh...elaborate a bit more please... that sounds like it should work...

The cord you need has RCA connecters on one side (white and red plugs used by game systems) and a TRS connector on the other (the same kind of connector used with headphones, 1/8 inch)
On the back of nearly all computers, there should be three sound ports: Speaker-out, Line-in, and Microphone-in. Your speakers should be connected to one of those, unless you're using a laptop with built-in speakers. Typically, speaker-out has a green-colored label, line-in has a pale blue label, and mic-in has a pink-colored label.
The kind of connector that those three sound ports should be what I specified earlier: a 1/8 inch TRS connector
Connect the TRS side of the adapter cord into the pale blue-labeled line-in port on your computer, connect the other side to your game system's audio-out.
With that connected, open Audacity. On the input source drop-down menu, Line-in should be an option, so select it. And record or whatever.
Those TRS-RCA connectors are relatively common, I found the ones I use around my house without having to go out and buy them. I believe one was included with some wireless headphones I have, another was included with a video camera (to connect it to a TV), a third was included with my bass/surround speaker system, and a fourth was included with my piano. It should be fine if the cable you find happens to have not only white and red, but also yellow RCA connectors, but you just would need to make sure that the metal parts of the yellow connector either do not touch anything or are connected to an unused cable (or else you'll receive static noise). A cord without a yellow connector is of course preferred.
Oh, you can also use something that isn't a cord, like the image below, if your computer's back actually has the space for that thing to stick out or if you have an extension cord:

I use a laptop...so....yea... X_X;;
Goldwave is pretty powerful, try it out.
Would that switcher plug work if I plug it into my headset jack or something?
Wait, there is another plug next to the headsets, I assume that's the one I'm looking for...
I'll try it out if I have some time...
Silver, it doesn't seem to be a program problem, it seems to be a Dazzle problem...

There should be a microphone jack on your laptop somewhere, so that converter or whatever should do the trick.

Yeah, microphone jacks work jst the same as line-in, I believe.
The only difference I think it might have is that it might be mono, instead of stereo, but even then there's a good chance it'll take stereo.
Okay, I'll try that next time I get the chance to go to someplace like RadioShack or something...
Thanks guys.
