Paddy,

Chances are the audio driver is not set up correctly. Press Ctrl + F5 or got to Options > Preferences to open preferences. Click on the Audio tab.

Most people select ASIO as it has the smallest latency during recording. Mine is set to MME in the screen shot.

It would be helpful to see a screen shot of your program's audio settings.
