Just getting started and i must be doing something wrong…
I can record. I can play the recording back in audacity. I can save it. I can export it.
But when i play the track in anything else it there is no sound. It plays the right length of time tho.
Also, I can bring the exported track back into Audacity and it will play the sounds.
You never said what you were recording, but there are microphone systems that record two out of step tracks such that they cancel if you listen on a mono system.
Open a copy of the show. Tracks > Mix > Mix stereo down to mono. Did the show vanish?
