You are VERY lucky! I have similar problem (clipping and no way to control it) when recording from a (Teac) USB turntable, and I am new to Audacity, having just loaded 2.1.2 for Mac running Yosemite 10.10.5. I can't believe we are alone here, so has anyone out there got a solution? and why haven't ...

Running Yosemite 10.10.5 I purchased a new turntable that came with latest version of Audacity. Prior to the Yosemite and turntable upgrades, I had been very successfully using another usb turntable and Audacity 2.0.4.0 to record LPs and save to iTunes.

Besides the Microphone/Line-in input there was the Microphone Array input, which now I find was causing the feedback loop. Once I disabled it the whine went away. While it's always worth trying that, in my opinion the audio drivers are suspect if you need to do that. If you add playthrough to the e...

A virus scan won't solve anything as I don't have a virus. Unless you do a virus scan you don't know whether you have a virus or not right now. I also suggest you try Safe Mode but of course it is up to you. If you could launch Audacity before, think of what you changed in terms of new audio device...

If I was using Chains I would find it more intuitive to set sample rate parameters there not in Preferences. My suggestion is not exclusive of other improvements Neither is mine. It would probably be useful to have one or more options for project rate behaviour when importing as well as to set samp...
