Hi folks,
Not sure where to post this. After installaing 2.2.2 using an M-AudioC400 and Korg minilogue, I can record and play but have lost the use of the speakers on my computer. I have a small Roland speaker that I use with the M-Audio. I thought I saw something about this one time in the manual but can not find it now. I am quite the novice at recording but know a bit about computers so be gentle with this old soul. Thanks for any help!

This is good. We can move it if there’s anything wrong.

Audacity uses the services of the computer. It doesn’t reach out and touch the devices directly. So. Right-click the Windows speaker lower right and drill down to playback devices and see what the options are. One of those is going to be the built-in speakers. You can’t play to your music system and the laptop built-ins at the same time (that I know of).
All that has to match the settings in Audacity opposite the little speaker icon.
This is a Mac, so yours will be different.

When you plug-in a “new” USB device, sometimes Windows wants to use that new device for recording and playback.
You can right-click the Windows speaker/volume icon, then select Playback Devices to change the default playback device. And/or with Audacity you can select your record & playback devices from the [u]Device Toolbar[/u].
