Re: Mixer issues in audacity?

Sweet Jesus I am an idiot...

Okay so it didn't work because I had the wrong button pressed. I had to have it set to control room and I didn't. Haha sorry about all this confusion and probably frustration

Let's all toast to the idiocy of never touching a mixer before in my life!

Re: Mixer issues in audacity?

Yeah it's enabled and everything the volume is at 100%

I'm trying to figure out if maybe it's the mixer? I plug it in and everything and it's recognized but if I unplug the usb from my computer my mouse and keyboard both stop working so I don't know whats up with that

Everything is working as it is supposed to. I finally got rid of the hissing but for some reason when I hit record, everything lights up perfectly fine on the mixer, up to 6 and everything. But I try to click to monitor audio levels in audacity and it doesn't do anything which is odd I've never had ...

Re: Getting clean crisp audio with Audacity and a Blue Yeti?

This may be a newbie question but is there a "perfect" Gain setting for these microphones or is it all based on what you are doing and how lou...
