Re: Recording from internal soundcard

You get a show when you do that, but it usually sounds pretty awful. -- Record Internet http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Recording_audio_playing_on_the_computer http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer_Toolbar_Issues#Using_the_Control_Panel Some ...

Re: Audacity Auto-Corrects Sound Input

Audacity isn't doing that. That's a Windows problem. Windows comes out of the box as a corporate internet communications device (Skype, Vidyo, Windows Meeting), etc., Not an entertainment recorder. You are experiencing Echo Cancellation or Auto Level Control. -- Windows Conferencing Services http://...

Re: Got some decent equipment but I`m totally lost.
