Audacity Forum

I am trying to copy a tape. I connected the boombox's headphone output to my Dell 15R Windows 7 laptop's microphone/line in jack. The boombox does not have any line out or other jacks. When I play the tape, the only I can hear the music on my laptop is by entering the check-mark in "Listen to ...

Please tell us what version of Audacity you are using (see the pink panel at the top of the page). Chains does not have any way to set sample rate. It is a popular request that it should do so. When the Chain imports a file, the project rate changes to the rate of the current file being processed. A...

None of that is working for me. Is it because I have windows 10? This is a recent problem and it is driving me crazy and setting me back! The mic level just keeps going back down to zero. Thank you. Is this the same Samson Meteor USB mic in your previous topic, or some other mic? Windows Enhancemen...

I started playing with some stuff and I think I figured out what it was. I got it working properly again at least. The very first drop down has an option called windows wasapi. I have no idea what it is but that's what was selected. I changed it to Windows Direct sound and now it's working with no ...

Sorry if I appeared a bit short. I'm in the recovery phase of a nasty bout of 'flu, it wasn't intentional. I only asked because a post I thought I'd made days ago was approved today. However, looking at the time stamp, I made the post yesterday! That's probably the effects of the 'flu too. No probl...

Windows Vista and the most recent version of Audacity. Please look at Help > About Audacity... and give us the actual Audacity version number (all three numbers). I am making a meditation tape with accompanying sounds and music. So far I have completed the voice track. Periodically throughout the v...

I just installed audacity 2.1.2 and registered and activated my account but it seems that when I try to post it is locked, can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? You have no posts in the moderation queue. If someone posts a question and that user's problem is solved, then we mark the top...

How many posts do you need to make to be taken off this? Obviously we are not going to tell you that. Also if a user's posts appear rude and argumentative, that user might remain on moderation permanently even if they were not spamming items for sale. It doesn't exactly encourage posting when thing...

My sound card does not have stereo mix or What U Hear, but I find that I can control the record level by changing the volume level on the website (youtube) that I'm recording from. If you have copyright holders' permission to record from YouTube, then you can download the video instead using web br...
