And note that your signal is oversaturated - the meters are showing reda t their right end and the waveforms are touching the top and bottom of their panel. A good level to aim for is -6 dB on the meters which corresponds to 0.5 on the linear scale of the waveform. You can do yourself a big favour a...

I run Audacity on my Windows 7 64-bit laptop. For recording streaming audio I set WASAPI as my audio host and use " ... (loopback)" as my input device. See this page in the Manual: http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/device_toolbar.html Using this set up I can use the level sliders to adj...

I was typing the last post as you were also typing - so basically yes.
