Hello,
The audacity mixer input volume control isn’t working. From my investigations I have discovered that this problem can be attributed to Realtek controlling the input signals and therefore the audacity inputs are set to max. Based on the manual suggestions, I’ve dropped the Realtek mixer input controls to 0 and have enabled recording multi-streaming within the Realtek mixer. I have also gone into the audio drivers (Realtek and USB Audio Codec) and made sure that the proper input lines were selected.
Note; Other than the input mixer Audacity seems to be working correctly.
I am recording from a USB turntable:
Audacity v. 2.0.0 preferences are:
- tried both: MME & Windows direct sound
- Recording source set to: USB Audio Codec
- Playback set to: Realtek HD Audio output
- 2 channels
Note: The same recording and playback settings have been set in the “System Sounds and Audio Devices”
System sound is: Realtek HD Audio - ALC 888B
- driver v. 1.6.0.4 dated 3/26/2010
Note, I was going to update the driver but the Realtek website cautioned that the new driver may not be compatible with the system audio mother board.
Using Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 3.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
