However, when I "monitor" the audio, it IS picking up sound.

You may be listening to the Skype echo management. Skype and Audacity don't always get along very well.

We strongly recommend Exporting a WAV file of any critical recordings in addition to any other technique. Technically, eighteen minutes didn't vanish.

Pick a portion of the show that only has noise and nothing else. Many people create a Noise Profile during their performance by sitting in fro...

There is one oddity about using a simple adapter like the StarTech unit. It does what it says it does, split off a computer microphone from a standard pair of stereo headphones, but that's not the microphone you have. Your microphone does not use all the little connections in the socket and some com...

My notch filter is near the bottom of the listing. The list is in two segments.

AUPs aren't sound files. To post a sound file, you have to export one from your show.
