Please do not post in Feedback and Reviews if you want help. Doing that gives us no information with which to help you. See the pink panel at the top of the page.

So, please start by telling us your version of Audacity (all three numbers) and what version of Windows, Mac OS X or Linux you have now. Tell us what you are trying to record.

For example, last time you had problems you were using Windows Vista and Audacity 2.0.4 and you were connecting a Technics sx-KN 1600 keyboard to the UMC 202. We cannot see your computer, so the above is the kind of detailed information we need to help you.

I am very happy you wil help me:
end august i have new laptop, Asus, windows 8.1, i have audicity 2.0.6, i need Behringer U-phoria umc 202 to connect my keyboard Technics sx-KN 1600. Audicity works good when umc202 is not connet with usb poort. When connect i click by microphon audicity window Behringer umc, sometimes audicity not or wel started and then for a little time.
The technician who tuned my laptop, also not succeed and the store where I bought the umc202, also refused to.
If you’re interested, here’s a link to my homemade music with homemade photos. I am very happy with my hobby without earning money. I already have more than 32 700 views. My goal is to make people happier.
With great interest, I look forward to your letter and I hope to go undisturbed my music recording and editing with the Windows movie maker. A cordial greeting, Henk Baars

We make “Audacity”. The current version is 2.1.1. It would be better to update to 2.1.1 from http://audacityteam.org/download/windows then we can be sure you are using the latest version of Audacity made by us.

Make sure you installed the “Windows Driver 2.23.0” http://www.behringerdownload.de/UMC/BEHRINGER_UMC_Driver_v2_23_0.zip which is meant for UMC running on Windows 8.1. That driver includes a “WDM” driver so it should be OK for Audacity.

Uninstall any older UMC driver you have before installing the new one.

Also, how long is it since you restarted the computer? Do that now. Hold the Windows key, press X then from the menu that appears, choose “Shut Down”.

If the problem still happens after that, try another USB cable and make sure it is tight at both ends.

If the same problem still happens after you change the USB cable, please describe the symptoms. Do you see the Stop button change from bright yellow to dull yellow? Or does Audacity write a flat line instead of tall blue waves?

If you see the blue Pause button becomes active (depressed), turn off Transport > Sound Activated Recording.
