Re: headphone recording

Yes it is possible - the crucial setting to monitor the input is the "playback" window of the Windows Mixer. If you are using "Mic In" then the "Mic In" fader in the "Playback" screen of the Windows Mixer must be NOT muted, and the slider set to the desired vo...

Re: Reliability of USB audio devices

If you have a question regarding your setup, start a new topic.
As far as the suitability of a UCA202, this topic is discussing the reliability of USB audio, so you may want to visit this thread again when there are a few more responses.

Re: Loss of Signal with Firewire?

The loss of signal problem is resolved and yes, you were right- it was one of my input dials not at the correct level. The firewire works fine. Smashing Super :D Theoretically, the mixer is not only sending out up to eight independent channels, but a stereo feed of the mix I've come across this sor...

Re: Recording Audiobook - should I use audacity? also Soundc

Re: mp3 error

There's often a lot of confusion between the difference between "Save" and "Export" in Audacity. "Save" will save a project - this consists of a ".aux" file and a data folder containing a load of ".au" files. NONE of this is ordinary audio, it is jus...
