Re: How to have the mic trigger the record?

IIRC from reading the Wiki - it may be that the developers are considering putting in a feature for signal activated recording.

Re: Export multiple problem

Re: Recording with Stereo Mix is louder than Microphone inpu

Yup that's it - your soundcard is a SigmaTel.

Unfortunately i can't help you directly as neither of my onboard soundcards is a SigmaTel - hopefully a SigmaTel user may see this post and be able to help.

Re: ION USB turntables (and clones)

I confirm the excessive wow of the top model (certainly on the one that I bought). The top model also has a built-in pre-amp (the device is switchable between line level and phono level).

Re: Recording with Stereo Mix is louder than Microphone inpu

Re: How do I properly uninstall 1.2.6 before installing 1.3.

If you want to uninstall 1.2.6, just delete the Audacity folder from the Windows Programs directory. It will leave a couple of registry settings behind, but this will not affect Audacity 1.3 or anything else.

Re: cd burn

All you need to do is to place a label at each track break - use the Ctrl-B shortcut - and don't forget to place a label right at the beginning for the first track. Then use Audacity's Export Multiple command (available from the File drop-down) to export a multiple set of WAVs, MP3s or whatever. The...
