I don't understand, either. I can see your earlier pictures just fine. Koz

Acoustical Goosh (technical term) is not the only way to do it. Our old company building had a special "round room" whose original purpose was to make nice with the people who played instruments and wanted to practice and record band sessions. I made a number of successful sound recordings...

2.0.5 has a very good on-line manual. http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/ What do your connections actually look like and are you using any USB equipment or connections?
