Am I missing a cable??? SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

I have a Xenyx.
Without knowing exactly what you have plugged into where, it's a bit difficult to diagnose. I will say though that faffing about with the CD/TAPE TO CTRL and CD/TAPE TO MIX may be the solution. If ever I can't hear something that I should, it's usually due to one of these buttons being in the wrong position.
Watch your ears though - you can get some nasty feedback when messing around with those buttons!
Maybe you could draw a diagram of what you've got plugged where?

CD/TAPE in is going to GREEN or PINK on the soundcard
CD/TAPE out is going to BLACK on the soundcard
Mic in mic, headphones in headphones
When I click on cd/tape to mix AND cd/tape to ctrl i can hear the music and my voice, but my voice is NOT picked up on the pc...when I click cd/tape to ctrl OFF, the music gets quieter, I can still hear my voice but its still NOT picked up on the pc....

One question for you and you did confirm this with me at one point....
Open Audacity - look on the toolbar top right and see the dropdown list - what does it say there? I really hope it says "Line In" there or I will be most upset

The dropdown bar has the following choices....Wave - Microphone - Analog Mix(LIne/Cd/aux) - Cd Digital - what U Hear - Midi Synth.
I have assumed that analog mix is another term for line in as it has Line in brackets...please tell me im right, or smack me across the face....
