I've read the FAQs, but seem to have trouble recording from the unit. I set it up for recording, but when I press the rec (play) button, nothing happens. According to the faqs, I should get a "Preparing Recording" prompt. Nothing happening, but the light on screen lights up. Any help will be greatly appreciated. :(

We need to know more. For starters:
- What other gear are you using, exactly, and how is it hooked up?
- Are you running mic-in or line-in or optical-in?
- Please detail the specific steps (on-screen in the menu, buttons, etc.) you follow to initiate the recording
- What source are you trying to record (LOUD stereo, someone talking, etc.)?
- After you try to record, are there any new files on the JB3 that were not there previously?

I recently got the unit and I am a complete noob. I'm trying to test it before recording a show. I plan to record loud rock and funk shows if I can get it to work properly.
I'm using a Church preamp (St-120B) and Church mics. I've got the mic plugged into the input on the preamp and from the output on the preamp, I go to the Line In on the JB3. ( I tried reversing this hook-up sequence also).
I set it to record by menu> record audio> monitor recording. I press the rec (play) button but nothing happens.
In the record settings, I have "line in" selected as recording source, syncho set to "off" and continuous set to "on" and "wave 44" as the recording file type).
*** I should note that there is a signal coming in because the vu meters are reacting to sounds while in "monitor recording", but nothing happens when I hit the record button.

Never mind, I figured it out. I wasn't pressing the record button long enough. The tests are going good, soon I'll be ready to record concerts.
