While converting an LP to digital using a turntable with USB output, the recording works fine...but I can't here while recording is happening, so separating tracks is impossible. I can hear the recorded digital file fine.

Check to see if your mute button in the application is not depressed.  Also, look under advanced options to see if mute system sound while recording is checked if you are using the LP and Tape assistant.

Actually, that's not uncommon.  You'll probably need to use the application that came with your turntable in order to be able to hear the recording as you capture it.  My guess is that you're using LP & Tape Assistant, or Sound Editor?  Neither of those applications knows that you can't hear the sound from your speakers.  The program that came with your turntable will probably re-route the signal out through your sound card as it records, so you can hear it.

Once you have it recorded, you can use the EMC tools to process it.

Hope that helps!

Having to go that route here with the Ion TTUSB turntable I bought. Record through Audacity, then process in EMC. No sound through speakers when using EMC to record, but there IS sound while recording in Audacity.

I think that's what he's saying he's doing, as a reply to mlibman, saying that indeed, Audacity works for listening whilst recording while the EMC tools don't.
