Frank, Who was the driver provider for the Realtek device, as shown in Device Manager? If it was "Microsoft" or even Realtek then you don't have proper drivers. You want drivers made by the computer or motherboard manufacturer. You can confirm that the Windows Audio or Windows Audio Endpoi...

USB audio inputs on 7 and Vista are often said to be too hot. Can the RCA output on the turntable be switched to line level? Does the computer have a blue line-in port or a way to switch the mic input to stereo line level? If so, you can connect the turntable to the computer that way with a suitable...

When you play your keyboard, the computer is the sole sound source and minor delays are easy to ignore. When you play the guitar, it makes noise itself and the difference between that and the computer playthrough are right in your face. This sounds correct, assuming plugging in the cable to the key...

Je ne parle pas français. Parlez-vous anglais? Vous dites que vous pouvez enregistrer «en interne» avec Audacity mais pas avec le PC? Par «en interne» voulez-vous dire "enregistrer l'audio dans Firefox"? Si vous pouvez faire cela dans Audacity, quel est le problème? Si vous voulez enregist...

can V1.2 run on win7 Yes it can and does on my Win 7 Desktop, but for many people, 1.2 on Vista and 7 keeps crashing when you press Stop after recording.

Frank, I see after running "Clean Boot" you ran in "Safe Mode" and D'nD of files worked again in media programs including Audacity. Is D'nD working now in normal operation? Audacity cannot access sound devices when in Safe Mode and from the look of it the Audio Service was not ru...

Sound Finder could do with a new control "Ignore sounds shorter than [seconds]" . This would consider sounds that are shorter than the minimum duration to be part of the "silence". The use case is that it would enable removal of a lot of loud but short duration sounds. Not sure ...

@Ed, what I was referring to in my question to you was your earlier post in this topic where you said: I just tried something like what you are doing and also had a problem with 1.3.15-alpha. I waited at least 5 minutes and Audacity still seemed "hung". My steps were to Generate 5 hours, 3...

I can't think of any good reason to use an obsolete version of Audacity, except perhaps for an ancient Windows 98/ME machine. As far as I know, 1.3.14 ANSI should work on Windows 98/ME, although the ANSI builds do break occasionally if the developers include functions that only work in Windows 2000...
