I have a Lenovo with Windows 10 Home v1709 OS Build 16299.248 and Audacity 2.2.1
Recording options are
MME - Microsoft Sound Mapper | Microphone
Windows - Direct Sound - Primary Sound Capture Driver | Microphone
Windows WASAPI - Speakers | Microphone
I downloaded this Audacity version as, recording from radio, the 3rd recording in the file, was only about half the amplitude of the previous ones. I can’t remember which setting I had, but I doubt it was microphone as I tend to record with the speakers on mute. Whichever option I choose, the recording now has barely any amplitude (5% of screen, maybe) and sound distorted and VERY quiet.
I can’t see this problem in the forum, so help, please.
I also have a lesser problem with an older HP Windows Home computer, also with Windows 10 - with this, recordings can only go through the speaker system (i.e. I can’t record with speakers set to mute, and all extraneous noises get picked up!). Any ideas?
