Re: Help! All of a sudden garbled sound

Koz I think you bet right. I couldn't find the conference echo thing, but I unchecked things like allowing devices to take control and DC Offset Cancellation. Disabled all sound effects. I recorded a half dozen test tracks with another audio trk running in the background and they all sounded beautif...

Help! All of a sudden garbled sound

The last couple days I've had a problem recording a track while another audio track is playing in Audacity. The track I'm recording will sound garbled -- kind of like static and choppy. This will happen, say, 9 out of 10 times that I try to record with another audio trk playing or even muted. The th...
