From an earlier post by you that you don't have a microphone amplifier. Oh, yes you do. The output signal of a microphone isn't enough to run the electronics that make the digital bitstream. The signal must be made very much higher and the only way to do that is with an amplifier. Your current one i...

Did you leave out a step? ...installed Audacity 1.2.6 and tried to record internet audio and now have no sound through computer? Windows Sound Control Panel is frequently the root of problems like this. Windows Control Panel http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=Mixer_Toolbar_Issues#Using_the...

So you really have no interest in solving the capture problem. You want to repair the thousands of hours of capture clips. Whose camera is it? Not a whole lot of hope of repairs. You could try getting really fancy with the Noise Removal Tool in Audacity 1.3. The tool in Audacity 1.2 is all but usele...

<<<I am losing recordings >>>

What recordings? We know the other poster is recording the Line-In of his sound card. What are you doing?

You have the sound card picking up whistling junk from somewhere, my guess is digital noise from inside the computer. They warn you when you put a sound card in y...

This is a dynamic microphone very similar to yours (but much older) plugged into a very good quality Creative SoundBlaster Live! sound card microphone connection (pink) in a Windows PC. I'm using the adapter cable from the above posting. The record volume is all the way up and the +20dB Microphone B...

This is the adapter you need to plug your microphone into the Mic-In of a sound card (pink on my two SoundBlaster sound cards) http://www.kozco.com/tech/audacity/UnbalBalAdapter.jpg If you do round one of these up, you are cautioned to plug the computer in first, then the microphone. I have never se...

I don't know how to do it in Vista, but how full is your hard drive? If you didn't change anything major and it's been working famously until a week ago, that may be the magic time you filled up your drive. Audio production takes up a lot of room and it's easy to lose track of how many long shows yo...
