Audacity Forum

Right, I think I've cracked it. What I believe was happening was that I was actually recording the ambient sounds of the radio coming out of the speakers together with the general room-noise, through the Webcam microphone.

Authenticity?? It's been a long day!! (It's a wonder I spelled it correctly!) Of course Audacity. And I was using Windows 7. I record Internet radio taking a line out to a 'multicompo super woofer system' (That's what it says on the tin) Listening on-line is absolutely spot on. When I record (and I'...
