Mic - Rode Nt1a
USB Interface - Focusrite Scarlett Solo
Audacity 2.3.3 on Windows 10
I’ve gone through the help files in the Audacity manual on this error,
I’ve also checked that microphone is enabled in the Windows privacy settings.
Format on the mic in windows is set to 1-channel, 16 bit 44100 Hz. Skype works and I believe the built in voice recorder app works. I can’t even monitor the audio, but the Focusrite is coming up as an input and output in Audacity preferences, and I can select it in the mic and sound bar at the top of Audacity.
Skype and Cakewalk can both pick up on the Focusrite. Neither are currently open (so shouldn’t be using the mic)
I’ve also tried MME / DirectSound. WASAPI gives me error -9996.
There is no security software other than Windows Defender, which isn’t blocking any mic use at present.
I get the same error. I checked dozens of things. At first I thought the error message is related to the device (USB). But windows build in recorder is able to save the USB-audio stream and Audacity can’t open ANY audio device for recording. All known permissions for device usage (microphone…) exist.
Do you found a solution?
