Audacity Forum

If you want help recording using other software you will need to ask the developers of that software. If you record streaming audio with a microphone you will expect poor quality. To record computer playback with Audacity I suggest you read Tutorial - Recording Computer Playback on Linux - Audacity ...

Use the same Audacity settings as on the machine that records, if you think those are relevant. Quit Audacity on both machines then copy the audacity.cfg settings file at ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/ on the machine where recording works to ~/Library/Application Support/audacity/ on the ma...

If your computer is fast enough you may be able to record audio and video together using screen recording software.

Also while we're waiting, please post a five seconds WAV sample of the noise. Please see http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=72887 for how to attach a sample. And since you say vocal recordings don't have the same noise problem, are you sure you are putting the mic close enough to...

The point is not the mixer but your interface. I have read the manual for the interface. In some places it calls the input "for microphones" and elsewhere it calls it a "line-in" jack. A proper line-in is always stereo. The support answer you have received (if correct) appears to...

i've just encountered the same problem, the frustrating thing is that this morning i was using the 'obsolete' version 3.3 and it was picking it up as stereo no problem - now ive put the new version on its not recording stereo - which suggests to me it is definately a software issue.... There is no ...

Please do not double post. It wastes everyone's time. I deleted your duplicate post and the new topic in which you posted the same message.

I am not an audio engineer, so now you have provided some information we'll wait for an engineer to review it.

I don't know if someone changed the posted RAR, but the log in the current RAR clearly shows that the problem is "orphan block files". The reason for the orphans is that the project rate is 88200 Hz, which means the maximum audio track length that can be saved as a project is only about 6 ...

Have you tried another USB cable? Perhaps is there a problem with the sound settings in the configuration panel, because whem I try to modify record settings (speaker icon) the system is completely frozen, and I have to kill the process in the task manager. Does that happen with the USB tape player ...

You could try the tech support 'phone numbers on the Soundcraft site and see if they will help. Either way, the Soundcraft interface you have has no digital input so it's a waste of time connecting a coaxial cable and adaptor to it. Are you even sure the adaptor is stereo? I'd be suspicious about re...
