Re: Recording Problem

What are the other output ports on the computer meant for, that you are not using? I suggest you could go into Windows Sound , Recording tab, right-click in empty space, choose "Show disabled devices", then right-click again and choose "Show disconnected devices". Repeat the same...

Re: Project saveAs sets destination folder to read-only firs

Thanks, Gale, both for clarification of Win permissions and your suggestion! After launching Audacity as administrator, everything works as expected. It was kind of dumb of me not to think of that, I guess, since that's one of the usual cures for whatever ails a program, and I've used it before, bu...

Re: How to mute built in mike during recording [SOLVED]

Thanks, Hugh. Given you can now apparently record in some reasonable quality, I will mark this [SOLVED] and lock the topic.

Another user on Ubuntu 16.04 found the Audacity 2.1.2 repository version stopped launching immediately after installing KXSt...

Re: Issues about error not find audio device on Windows 10

This post was in response to a now banned user who was posting questions copied from other users Audacity needs proper drivers meant for Windows 10 and matched to your devices.
