WC: Do you really mean amplified 25 times (27.96 dB) or amplified 25 dB (about 18x)? Bill, it's a fair cop - you got me :oops: Yes I do mean amplified 25 dB (as per the Amplify dialog box) and NOT 25x as you correctly point out - sorry. WC Update: original post corrected following Bill's comments

I suspect that this is going to turn out to be a Windows 7 problem. Do you have the latest Beta 1.3.12 installed? When you are trying with the RCA leads to your on-board soundcard, do you have the USB disconnected? You should do. See this sticky thread on W7/Audacity: http://forum.audacityteam.org/v...

Following some recent threads on noise removal on the forum I ran some tests today on my audio setup. Onne conclusion that I was drawn to is that my trusty Edirol UA-1EX USB soundcard introduces a tiny bit of hiss into my recording. It is so tiny as to be undetectable in normal recordings and is cer...

You haven't helped yourself, or us, by providing details of you operating system and version of Audacity - and that's probably why folk haven't responded so far ... I can tell you that whether you can do this or not depends entirely on your combination of PC/opereating system/sound card/sound card d...

And all of which confirms my personal view that Brian Davies has built some finel-honed tools to do some particularly narrow audio tasks extremely well - just as Chris has with his famous Compressor. And Audacity still provides an excellent audio "workbench" to glue all these specificic ex...

Have you got your Audacity Preferences set to 1 channel (mono) - it should be 2 Channel (stereo)

Go to Edit > Preferences > Devices to check and reset.

Especially if the tracks are linked (and from the visual representati...
