Audacity Forum

Not like that, like it'll take what I'm trying to record and make it all static sounding. And i'm pretty sure it just takes the first second of the recording and repeats it but it's hard to tell over all the noise.

When I do try to recording, horrible noise ( not the white noise effect) happens.

Also, if it makes a difference, I've tried both the regular and beta versions after this and have never had troubles downloading.

I've had Audacity a little over a month and only used it to record sound clips from sites like Youtube. It worked fine for a few weeks and all of a sudden the meters wouldn't move for any computer sounds, I had not messed with any of the defaults and I'm wondering how to fix this.
