That is very odd. It does not show any physical (hardware) audio devices Why is that?

Inverting a track reverses the "phase" of the audio (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_%28waves%29#Phase_shift) The relative phase of what the left ear hears and what the right ear hears is one of the mechanisms by which we gain positional information about the source of the sound. Revers...

Glad that you now have it working, though I disagree that Patchage is "garbage". Patchage can be a very useful tool when working with Jack Audio System. You don't need to use Jack Audio System, so Patchage is inappropriate for your needs. A spanner is "garbage" if you need a hamm...

Delete the file "audacity.cfg" to reset Audacity.

You 'may' be able to run a separate media player, though the more that is running on the computer the greater the risk of stuttering or other problems in the recording. (Foobar2000 is quite light on resources). Give it a try and see how it goes. You can add a marker in Audacity while recording by pr...
