I just purchased one of the new aluminum, 13" 2.4 GHZ Macbooks. I have tried recording my acoustic guitar on it and it will sound fine for about 5 seconds, but after that the sound kinda tones down and has this distorted, underwater sound to it. I looked in the help section and it said it should do this if I'm pushing the computer real hard (i.e. lots of tracks, not much power behind the computer, etc.) but it's the only application I have open and it's the only track I have recorded. I've messed around w/ the different levels of input on the mic, mono, stereo, the gate feature, they help a little but still after 5 seconds the sound distorts. Anyone who can help I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks.
