When recording music from vinyl, I want to create wav
files. The recording goes well, however, when I listen to
the wav file the music sometimes stutters.

Any suggestion?

Davy,

Because we animate the waveform and many Video Card drivers
use system resources improperly, our Scroll Smoothly feature
causes glitchs to occur in playback on some systems. For all
the technical details on this you could visit: http://www.zefiro.com
and read Greg Hanssen's "VGA Kills Audio" post under the "New" link.

Ways to fix this include

1. Uncheck Scroll Smoothly under the Options menu.
2. Turn down Hardware Acceleration in Start|Settings|Control
Panel|System|Performance|Graphics. Usually the 1/3rd up setting will
relieve this. You will need to reboot for this to take effect.
3. Change from however many colors you have selected to 256 colors
under Start|Settings|Control Panel|Display|Settings.
4. Try a updated video driver for your display adapter from the
manufacturer.
