I am happy that it's working well enough now to consistently make masters with my tape deck, the same Sony HVR-M15U you use. I can't help you with Vegas since I am not very familiar with it, but if I was you Redshoe, I would post this in one of teh Vegas forums and see if any other Vegas power users have any advice for you.
