Since updating to new version, have problems monitoring audio.
When I first open up audacity and link my Blue Yeti mic all is well I can hear the mic in my headphones from the output of mic. But If I go to record I get a error message. (Pic attached)
Sometimes by pressing the monitor audio button on transport bar the audio to headphones is cut off, audacity will then allow me to record audio but im unable to monitor and unable to give a good take.
Could you please look into this for me. Im running a M1 Pro 2021 macbook Pro.
I’m getting this as well, very often, only thing to do is close audacity and reopen it. Often it’s not recognising that i have headphones plugged in either and have to go to preferences and select headphones for playback devices. I’ve never had so many issues with an update going back over a dozen years using Audacity.
I also have this issue after getting a new Mac (macOS 13.0.1 and Audacity 3.2.1).
I have a Samsun Q2U microphone which has analog direct monitor mode, where I plug headphones into the microphone and get zero latency monitoring.
With Audacity 3.1.3, I have the following behaviour:
record device set to mic, playback set to mic: monitoring stops while recording and starts again as soon as recording stops
record device set to mic, playback set to anything else: monitoring continues while recording (desired behaviour)
With Audacity 3.2.1, if I start recording, monitoring stops, regardless of what the playback device is set to, or whether recording mono or stereo. It does not return when recording stops. To re-enable the monitoring I have to either unplug and reconnect the microphone, or deselect and reselect “Thru” in Audio/MIDI Settings:
Please let me know if I can provide any more information.
