AKA high cut filter, low pass filter. It passes the low frequencies and cuts the high frequencies, contributing to the muffled echo. It can be done in Channel EQ inventory. The classic slope is 24dB/Oct. You can also turn the Q on the cut-off frequency for a resonant boost that sounds so good. Auto...

I am recording my song in parts, I am not doing every thing in one day. The usual way to do this avoids the problem completely - do all of the recording before you begin processing. Note that even doing it that way, you have to take great care to use exactly the same recording set up each time - ju...

OK, that's fine. What audio device is it?

Reading the original post again, I think I was barking up the wrong tree.

As jademan wrote, to record a second track, you need to hold down the Shift key when you click the Record button (or "Shift + R").

A simple test to establish if the problem is in Audacity or in Windows, is to make a test recording using Microsoft "Voice Recorder" (see: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-record-sound-using-voice-recorder-app-windows-10) Dell support are not likely to be very helpful if you tell them yo...

Does Audacity see your computer's internal sound card if the Behringer is not connected? (You may need to reboot the computer)

"WDM" is "Windows Driver Model". Those are the drivers used by "MME" (Multimedia Extensions) and "DirectSound".
I'm surprised that it's not picking up your computer's internal sound card either - I assume your computer has one (?)
