Re: 2.1.2 (from .exe) Windows 7; monitor active; does not re

If you want to record cassettes, the only "correct" input to choose in Audacity is Line In. It is also possible to record with stereo mix if you can enable "Listen to this device" in Windows Sound for the Line In input. Mic in would be the worst choice. In Windows Sound, do you see the green meter ...

Re: 2.1.2 (from .exe) Windows 7; monitor active; does not re

Bought a Dell Inspiron 15Rlast year, running windows 7, with a single jack which toggles between line in, mic, speakers, etc. (I used to be able to record the output of my cassette player just fine on an older laptop.) Now I can see a strong incoming signal on the microphone monitors but when I pre...

Re: 2.1.2 (from .exe) Windows 7; monitor active; does not re

Greenpoint? In any of those combination were you able to record the laptop built-in microphone? It would be a kick in the head to discover the laptop won't record anything ever. This is an extension of the "too close to the problem" problem. Koz Hi Thanks to all and thanks to you too Mr. 'Koz." I a...
