Unless you have a reason to use 2.0.2, install the latest 2.0.6 from http://audacityteam.org/download/windows. This will fix any installation reasons there may be for the problem.

So you are recording with a cable from audio out to the line in? Is it really a line-in, separate from the microphone input? If you are connecting to the only audio input you have, it may be a microphone input only, and it may be mono. You will be better off to use Windows WASAPI to record YouTube: ...

I don't know where I have gone wrong, but today I tried to add a guitar solo to a background accompaniment music. I first loaded the mp3 accompaniment track. Before launching Audacity I plugged in the microphone (for guitar solo) and headset. So you are not using the Behringer Guitar Link now? And ...

Make sure you use the EXE installer of 2.0.6 (not the ZIP file). The installer should fix the problem with AUP files not opening in the 2.x version of Audacity.

I don't think there is a solution to this with Audacity's Batch Processing. The geeky way is probably to write a script for SoX using concatenate. However you could also use dBpoweramp which has an "Insert Audio" DSP to do just what you want if you accept the re-encoding loss. It is not fr...

However, a few tracks appear to “trip-over” themselves in places. It sounds a bit like the track has j...

Forgive me if this has been previously covered. I installed Audacity on my computer. It plays wave files very well. However, when I go to record, the cursor just sits there at zero and shakes. When I stop trying to record, a latency problem message pops up. I have tinkered with latency settings, bu...

I have recorded interviews on a Tascam DR-40 but have had considerable problems trying to load the audio files from my computer hard drive onto Audacity. I have the Tascam WAV audio files in a Library I created called INTERVIEWS UNEDITED, then in a yellow folder below that. They are accessible to p...
