Echo/Reverb When I Record Using Stereo Mix

Good evening,

I’m unsure if this has been brought up already. I searched through the forum before posting. This is my first time encountering this. I used Audacity for years and I never had this happen. When I try to record using Stereo Mix, I get this horrible echo/reverb effect. I am unsure why this is happening. I just updated to the latest version. I attached what the Audacity dash looks like and it’s basically the same settings I always have and a recording sample. I’m using Windows 10.

Hey,

Thank you for the help. I wouldn’t have figured it out without your help. Works fine now.
