Re: Losing the Stereo

It's not the play back that's giving me issues. For instance, I can record the song on PC7 and play it back on PC10, feeling the full stereo effect.

It's the 'recording' on PC10 that seems to be dropping the stereo.

Thanks.

Re: Losing the Stereo

Here's the options from both system: PC10: Microphone (Realtek(R) Audio) Microsoft Sound Mapper-Input Headset Microphone (Plantronics Microphone Array (2-USB PnP AU PC7: Microsoft Sound Mapper-Input Microphone Array...

Re: Capturing Metadata and importing to iTunes

I'm not sure this is the 'final' solution or if it's just the songs I'm recording but if I export the project using the Windows 10 version of Audacity and use the Windows 10 version of Media Player, it seems to pick up the metadata (artist, album and tracks). When I launch iTunes and insert the disc...

Re: Losing the Stereo

It's not the headphones playback (headphones or speakers). It's the recording. And it's enforced by the meters in Audacity itself. I recorded the same song on both PCs. I watched the meters while it was recording. On PC7 the left and right meters registered differently. But on PC10, they were locked...

Re: Losing the Stereo

To Trebor: The web site says this technique is used to "Find out how different the stereo channels are: Use the same steps 1 and 2 above on any stereo track. If the audio is just as loud after the steps as before, the channels are very different. "If the result is silence, the track is not really st...

Re: Losing the Stereo

Both PCs are from Dell. PC7 is a tower system (XPS model) running Windows 7. PC10 is a laptop (INSPIRON model) running windows 10. I also downloaded Audacity 2.4.2 onto PC10. PC7 is still using version 2.1.0. Both are using USB 2.0 connections. I've been using PC7 for years. I just started using PC1...

Re: Losing the Stereo

Well, no cigar. First, the You Tube video was for windows 7 but I was able to get past that. My settings are already set properly. See the attachments. The first one is the windows setting and the second is the Audacity setting. By the way, these settings were already the default. Any other ideas? T...

Losing the Stereo

Comparing 2.1.0 on Windows 7 with 2.0.3 on Windows 10. I record a song from a cassette player connected to each PC into Audacity. The PC10 version doesn't have the 'stereo' sound like it does on the PC7 system. While recording I'm also watching the meters. The meters on PC7 are uneven, as expected. ...

Capturing Metadata and importing to iTunes

I'm using 2.0.3 on Windows 10 and also 2.1.0 on Windows 7. I have created a label track. I use File/Edit Metadata to enter the album name and artist. Then File/Export Multiple to create my files. I use Windows Media Player to burn the disc. Then, I load iTunes to import the disc. The title and artis...
