Ok so I downloaded the dmg and did not read the warning about not to install from the dmg ! The warning is about not running Audacity from the DMG: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=75660 . So I no longer have any audio on my mac running 10.9.2 so how do I get back control of m...

Audacity records what you give it. Built-in (motherboard) audio and video card are all that most entry level computers have. You did not give the make and model number of your computer. At a guess, you probably recorded YouTube with the built-in microphone on your machine. You can read how to record...

Eddy suggested that Audacity might be able to help with that, putting some kind of instrument in it or sumin like that. Audacity doesn't create instruments. Normally you would find an instrumental WAV file, and sing an appropriate song to the beat of that instrumental using overdub. Then you don't ...

I would expect ESI devices to be able to record more than two simultaneous channels, as per http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Multichannel_Recording#...

Did you mean clicking 'pause-record-pause'? I have already recorded several lp's, and the meter had a flat line if I just hit the 'pause-record-pause button without connecting (properly) the recordplayer. Nothing happens now, just flickering. What type of record player - does it connect via USB cab...

Thanks Koz, Got it in one! My problem is now fixed, your last suggestion worked perfectly, no box was ticked :) If software playthrough was causing echoes to be recorded as you suggest, that can only mean you are recording the wrong input (or not using headphones, or sending Audacity playback from ...
