Did anyone listen to the samples? Is it ok that I delete them?

I did, but I can't help you much. I've had a weird problem with similar noise (but much, much less severe) when I tried to record audio and video simultaneously from my VCR using SCART adapter->S-Video->Easycap device -> AmarecTV program for video, and RCA (separate audio out on the VCR) -> Line In on Xonar DG -> Audacity for audio. Merely having the adapter connected to the VCR added continuous static sound to the capture for some reason. Nothing terrible, but ultimately I had to record audio and video separately to get best results.

Word of advice. Don't contact Corel Support. I've been going for the last week or so with someone who is absolutely clueless. All I was trying to figure out if there was anyway at all if I could record my tapes with Pinnacle Studios (2016 version) with Dazzle doing the video while capturing the audio with VIDBOX. He asked me about the DxDiag text which I sent him, he asked about my speakers which I told him is not the problem. On Friday I sent him a response about screengrabs I had sent that I thought may detail the problem and asked if he received them. His response today was something like 'we are still awaiting feedback or a response for your ticket. Has the problem been resolved, etc.' and I'm like 'you didn't answer my question. Is there someone who CAN help me or can I break this off now??'. Big waste of time.

Seems as if the support is just to resolve problems, and not to help being creative...
I listened to your samples. Did not seem to be a problem with the loudness itself, complete different kind of missound.
Next weekend at home I may try to make one of the "better" samples louder, like the worse samples, because I think the missound is also in the more silent samples, just lesser noticiable, because the whole sample is not the same volume level.
Normally I would advise to use not the hardware branded software, so you may use a different input hardware device, then the video input.
I have soem cheap Video Grabbing USB stick, but I never was happy with the audio quality, so I just used my normal Sound Card as input device, just using the USB for video.
I stick on VirtualDub, because it saves the most raw version of the input, leaving all decisions of filtering such to myself, and not an automated process. Maybe thats why your virtualdub results seem to be such "not so well quality", because it has no kind of post processing done.

I have a USB Dazzle that doesn't have any of these issues when using VirtualDub and I've used it with Windows 7 numerous times. I wish I could explain your noise and help you fix it. The only way I could do that would be to actually be there to watch you go through your process to diagnose the issue in real time.
