Re: Multi-channel Recording in Audacity

It may be possible to record sounds playing on the computer and the microphone at the same time, but doing so is riddled with pitfalls and bear traps. There's probably a better way to achieve the same result. What exactly do you want to do?

Re: SETTING TIME

Re: Audacity won't launch in Windows 7

I've merged the previous topic with this one. I use Windows (reluctantly) but only XP and Vista. I presume that you do not get any error message when you first try to launch Audacity? Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound (if you're using "Classic View" there's a direct link t...

If I get that delay problem I just restart ...
