Re: Does Audacity have a panner?

Re: Recording in stereo

i would guess that the problem is win7 and its drivers not audacity. one of the 7 gurus may have a way to do it. or your new sound card may not allow audacity to do it now. do tell us how you set up the pc to do that previously. two microphones? overdub while playing back first take? something else?...
