<p>That was exactly it... I did some vinyl on the road, but recorded it live
through my laptop to Ogg Vorbis.  The stupid cable had black and red
connectors.  The amp had red and white.  Okay, so I plugged red to red and
black to white... only to find out AFTER my flight arrived in Puerto Rico
(where I live) that the violins where on the right side and the brass was on
the left. DOH!  So it was red to black and white to red... who'd have
thought it.

I'll probably look through libvorbis? and see if there's anything I can
figure out.  I hear is very well documented and thought out (or well thought
out anyway).
