The 1.3.5 version does fix some bugs, but there is at least one new bug (which the developers are already aware of). 1.3.5 does not fix the delay with the software playthrough, nor will any new version. This delay is unavoidable with software playthrough and can only be resolved by using full duplex...

No problem Bobby - had I read your post properly I would probably have spotted that (I read the "1/8" stereo input jack" and assumed that you had switched to your computer sound card) :oops: You may be able to "revive" the old cassette player by cleaning the capstan and pinc...

Screenshot.png Track 1 is a stereo track - it starts at time=0 - no problem here. Track 2 is a mono track and starts at approximately time = 0.5 seconds - PROBLEM ! At the bottom of the picture you can see what happens when we Export track 2 then import it. To Export track 2, I selected the track a...

Your sound card may not properly support the selected sample rate. Open Audacity, go to "Edit > Preferences > Quality" and set the default format to 44100 / 16 bit. Close and restart Audacity so that the changes take effect, and try that. If you still have the same problem, try 48000 / 16 ...

Check to see what is selected as the "Recording" and "Playback" devices in "Edit > Preferences > Audio I/O". Do these correspond to the audio devices that you are using?

You need a "full duplex" sound card (one that can record and play back at the same time). Most conventional sound cards can do this, but it can be a problem with some USB interfaces. Assuming that you are using a conventional sound card, go to "Edit > Preferences > Audio I/O" and...

Oops, as of separate channels (my post above) it is impossible in Windows XP, Not so. SBLive with KxProject drivers you can route anything to anywhere (my old XP set-up). Even the regular SB drivers are quite flexible. You missed the step where you want to equalize as you record. Oh how I love the ...

No, I meant doing a "Live Mix", but that could be another possibility if the hardware and drivers support it.
