Probably not as you run into the same problem of people trying to record Skype. All your sound pathways are already busy.

I'd like to be able to hit a key to set the start time during playback, then hit another key to set the end point. Is there anyway to do this with audacity? Those are Edit Markers as in a video editor. We've been requesting those for years. The best you can do is the labels, the label track and the...

Unplug your USB microphone or other USB device. When Windows sees a USB device, it tries to record from it and play back to it. Unplugging it should restore the older settings.

Still, it's quite hard. Actually, it's nearly impossible. Nobody can resist messing with the instrumental minus the voices and that kills you when you try to use one to cancel the other. There were danger signs at problem one. Right away, one is not the other with pieces missing. By the time you go...

I don't expect that's important information at this point. It might be. "Vocal Removal" fails a lot more times than it succeeds. (see attached). There is talk about deleting Vocal Removal from Audacity because people have so much trouble with it. So, to go on with your download. How much ...
