I'm having the exact same problem. I tried the above, but it's still not working.
Which version of Audacity? (look in "Help menu > About Audacity").

When you export you should see Advanced Mixing Options where you can select the number of channels (2) and direct the tracks appropriately.
That is not required when making a stereo mix. The only things that matter are the pan and gain settings.

Re: Audacity 2.1.1, Art USB Phono Plus, Win 7 64 bit - Sound Too LOUD (Over Cooked) on Phono

OK, so normally your turntable plugs into "phono" (with RIAA EQ) in the Linn Kairn Pro. So if you connect the turntable directly into the Art USB Phono Plus, you will need the input set to "phono". If you connect the turntable to the ART via your Linn Kairn Pro, then the input on...

Re: How to mix 7 mono channels to stereo?

You will need to start with all tracks as mono tracks. (https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/splitting_and_joining_stereo_tracks.html) front_left, back_left, side_left: Pan all the way to the left. front_right, back_right, side_right: Pan all the way to the right. centre: pan centre. Yes you will nee...

Re: How to mix 7 mono channels to stereo?

I'm left with front_left, front_right, front_center, back_left, back_right, side_left, side_right. Have you been able to work out which is which? (some of the standard channel maps are listed here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surround_sound#Channel_identification though other channel allocations ...

Re: Audacity 2.1.1, Art USB Phono Plus, Win 7 64 bit - Sound Too LOUD (Over Cooked) on Phono

the version of Audacity should provide a clue as to the year. After we get this working, I'll recommend updating to the current version, but for now let's stick with what you've got. The original phono cables emanating from the turntable are connected to the AB Switch. I'm guessing that's a passive...

Re: Any Way to Recover "Orphaned Files"?

won't that mean that everything I watch on Youtube (or otherwise do in the browser) will use that crappy sound card? Only while it's plugged in. When you're not using Audacity, just unplug it. Alternatively, you can switch which sound card is being used in "Sound Settings" (on Xubunu, I j...

Re: Audacity won't open

"The system has detected that another copy of Audacity is running. Try rebooting the computer. If that doesn't fix it, you will need to manually delete Audacity's "lock file". I don't usually use Windows, so I'll have to look up where that is if we need to delete it manually. Backgro...

Re: recording level too high or low, There's no gradation.

Try making a recording using the same hardware as you use with Audacity, but record with Windows Voice Recorder instead of Audacity. IMPORTANT: For this to be a meaningful test, everything must be set up exactly the same as when you get the problem with Audacity, except for using Windows Voice Recor...
