I suspect you are using Windows xp or earlier. Go into the properties of your sound card and choose play. In that dialog, you may find options to check or uncheck what channels play. Make sure line in is unchecked. Also, in the recording properties, make sure line in is checked, not anything called What you Hear or Mixer.
I often digitize tapes using Goldwave, in both Xp and Vista, and never hear the tape playing, so the problem can be solved.

However, I have to sit and listen to it while this is happening. This is very annoying, especially if I'm trying to get on with work. Is there a way to digitize the tape without having to listen to it? I am using a Sound Blaster Audigy 2ZS, Goldwave 5.25 and the cassette machine is plugged into the line-in on my soundcard.
