recording from album

Audacity Help Forum Windows

I am recording from albums to computer and it records all the background noise. I thought it would record it internally. What am i doing wrong? Please help.

Since you didn’t tell us anything at all about your world, I’d say you were recording your laptop built-in microphone instead of your turntable.

We need to know:

  • Your operating system
    Your computer make/model
    The version of Audacity you are using
    The brand name and model of the turntable
    How you are connecting the turntable to your computer.
