So I downloaded the recent version of Audacity, but for some reason, when I’m recording an audio on Youtube, the recorded audio is so low. This never happened before, and while I can still amplify the completed recorded audio afterwards, it’s annoying that this happened to begin with. Can someone please help me fix this?
If you use [u]WASAPI Loopback[/u] you should capture exactly what’s being streamed (and decompressed).
YouTube (and most of the streaming services) use loudness adjustment/matching so you still may want to amplify/normalize after recording.
