Audacity Forum

Like others user those who in Window 7 OS, I can only find "Master" available in Audacity. For my laptop that equip with Realtek High Definition Audio soundcard , there is no other options. Microsoft are making it increasingly difficult to record "Stereo Mix". You may need to en...

It may be worth looking in the Windows Control Panel to see if Windows is applying additional gain boost to the input and/or is set to mono (Windows often assumes that any USB audio input is a mono microphone).

UA-1G control panel? What's that? I've looked it up now but it seems that the "control panel" that I was thinking of is for the ASIO set-up, which Audacity does not use. However I did notice a comment in the "Cakewalk Audio Interface Setup" http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/Interf...

Those measurements are around what I expected. Thanks for posting your results. Somewhere in the order of 200k is about average for instrument inputs on mixing desks (way too low for most piezo fiddle pick-ups).

I was going to suggest that you enquired on the Creative forum, but I see that you already have. At what point does it crash? Is it a total black screen crash of Win 7? Do you have the UA-1G control panel correctly installed and working? Have you checked that the sample rates in the Windows Control ...

0 dB is 0 dB. There is no additional headroom. If you click on the recording meter, the meter is activated so that you can set the level before you start recording. By default the recording and playback meters are very small, but you can click and drag them to full screen width, which makes them muc...

I don't think that it is a very important issue, but I've notified the administrator about it.

Unfortunately Microsoft keep bringing out different versions of WMA, and FFmpeg does not yet support all versions. If FFmpeg cannot convert the file you will need to use a third party format converter to convert them to a supported format (I would recommend converting to WAV) before importing into A...
