That's hardware by the sound of it. You can't apply effects from anything attached to the phones port of the Guitar Link.

Apply the effects using the included Guitar Combo software, if you want to use the GuitarLink. Or use Tracktion to record.

Where exactly is the microphone? If the microphone is in the headset, some of these have settings in a control panel to record playback as well as mic. If you have multiple audio outputs on your computer, try another output port to plug the headphones/headset into. On some computers this makes a dif...

Your settings look correct. Make sure the Audacity recording level is turned up (it "should" be the same as that you chose in Windows Sound). Set project rate to 44100 Hz. You may want to check the cable you are using. If you use your favourite search engine and look up your phone or phone...

Make sure you are using explicitly Audacity 2.1.2 from http://www.audacityteam.org/download/mac . The "latest version" on other sites may not be 2.1.2. The sample rate in Audacity project rate should be a rate supported by the device. Do not exceed the maximum sample rate specified in the ...
