<<<it jumps so the result is skippy.>>>

Audacity 1.2.5 Mac OS-X 10.4.11 I got a 32-bit floating WAV file at the wrong time. I made an AIFF, 48000, 16, Stereo sound file in WireTap Pro.

You need to manage your Windows Sound Panels so you can record 'What You Hear' or 'Mix Out'. Some of the latest v...

Then delete your desktop copy. I can imagine it's the same in Windows Media. I believe you can't change Wi...

I had to lie down for a minute. <<<I was under the impression that when I clicked in the one I wanted (and it highlights) that the Export would then just export that one capture.>>> That's the part I can't follow. So far you have a complete textbook example of using a stereo recording system to reco...

Yes, I do that all the time. There's two flavors. One flavor is to capture the performance as a live stream at the time of broadcast. I do that with WireTap on the Mac and Total Recorder on the PC. Open up the captured file in Mac/PC iTunes and sync to your iPod. Go jogging/walking. Many presentatio...

<<<Somehow I am unable to export it to an MP# file.>>>

Audacity doesn't come with MP3 software, it has to be downloaded and installed separately.
