Re: Record Player won't play through Mac
We should be clear that you can successfully record an album without hearing a thing. Convenience loudspeaker monitoring is just that, a convenience. Do you get the Audacity red recording meters jumping when you play the record? It doesn't matter what you hear.

Re: Weak right channel

Re: Migrating files to new hard drive
Not so fast. Did you get both listings? Note in this graphic that piano2.wav appears twice, the top one for left and the bottom one for right.

Re: Recording while playing live!
You have the Stereo output of the mixer connected to the Mono Microphone Input of the computer, right?
Most Windows laptops don't accept a Stereo audio connection. You might add one of the USB external sound cards to do this.
