Can you not still change the conversion format in Preferences?

Audacity doesn't stop when the disk is full but carries on, corrupting the existing recording as it goes. It is a high priority for us to fix that.

The Status Bar at the bottom of Audacity says how much recording time you have remaining.

I just discovered an unusual way to recover the data… The filenames are always created in the same order (except the last one), to make a working save file for it, I only have to record another of the same length or greater (may need more disk space).

Assuming you want to keep the stereo of the purchased file, click above Mute / Solo of the recording t...

You may have to tell Windows to set the USB turntable to stereo recording. See the green panel in this FAQ: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... #rinstereo. It applies to Windows 10 too.

What version of Audacity? See the pink panel at the top of the page. Did this computer come with Windows 10, or did you upgrade it over older Windows? What is the exact make and model number of the USB mic? Is the Audacity recording level slider moving rightwards when the problem happens? Are you re...
