I don't have a 7.1 soundcard, so there's no way for me to work it back and see if it's OK.
Let's see if any of the other forum elves has any ideas.

Re: New to Audacity I need a tip how to do this...
I just used my phone to record it If you recorded everything at once, then you're stuck. What you're supposed to do is record, say, just the guitar part all the way through, move the file to Audacity, and then play that into your headphones while you record the vocal. Then move the vocal over to Au...

Re: New to Audacity I need a tip how to do this...
What did you use for the recording App? The whole idea behind Overdubbing is to get Audacity to record separate tracks for each instrument and voice. Then it's a snap to apply effects, filters and corrections to each one by itself before you mix it down into a finished song. Once you mix down into o...

After you tell us which soundcard you have, scan the instruction sheet and post that—or find it on-line. They might have an address posted in the instructions.

Re: Audacity not picking up my voice with Mic plugged in
The Amazon picture has the microphone mounted wrong. You're supposed to be talking through the black tennis racket into the company logo, not into the side. That's the kind of mount mistake that gives us complaints of weak voice, but I can hear the dog next door clearly.

Re: Audacity not picking up my voice with Mic plugged in
The microphone may or may not have a light. What do the instructions say? I can't tell from the page that Amazon gives me. There doesn't seem to be a light on the front or bottom and there is no rear view. Which soundcard do you have? The microphone page seems to suggest you can run it either direct...

Re: Audacity not picking up my voice with Mic plugged in
Cool. The little light on the microphone should mean the Phantom Power is running, the light on the soundcard should mean the USB is working and if you can hear yourself at the soundcard headphone connection with the volume control all the way up (scratch the grill on the microphone—never blow into ...

Re: Audacity not picking up my voice with Mic plugged in
I can't make it out from the description, does the microphone have a power light?

Re: Audacity not picking up my voice with Mic plugged in
Audacity can recognize the USB soundcard, not the microphone. Does the soundcard have a place for headphones? Does it supply 48v phantom power to the microphone? Does it have a sound activity light?
