Hi There!

Hi, my name is Bo and I am making a podcast. The only problem is that I can’t use both audios from my mic and audio from my discord, I’ve tried everything but to no avail.
Mic - T-Bone 440
OS - Windows 10
Audacity version - 2.2.2 or 2.1.3

When I use Stereo Mix it only records the sound but I also want it to record the sound from my microphone so that won’t work.

Thank you for taking your time to read this post.

You will need to record the two separately and overdub - see this tutorial in the Audacity Manual: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_recording_multi_track_overdubs.html

For the longest time Stereo Mix would record everything on the computer, so the question really is why is your microphone being left out. Anything magic about it? Is going through special software, drivers or apps? Do you use Skype? Skype is famous for taking over your machine and not telling you.
