I know that Audacity 1.2.6 has some bugs, particularly on newer computers, and they are not going to get fixed because all development of Audacity 1.2.x has now ended, but I've no idea why the problem should suddenly appear if it was working correctly before. The only suggestion that I can think of ...

You have now made a c”onscious decision” to overcome the fear” .... Right, I see/hear what you mean.

My guess is that the reason that the Audio DJ 4 is listed twice is because the sound card drivers are as two stereo pairs rather than one 4 channel device. You may have the wrong instance selected for the inputs that you are using.

What I'm thinking is to first convert to mono, which should cut it in half... right? Not exactly. When you export in a compressed audio format such as MP3, the "compression settings" determine how many "bits" of data (digital 1's and 0's) are used for each second of audio. If yo...
