Boy, do I feel stupid. Just downloaded 3.3. Now I can record voice but instruments do not record (same track). Using a Yeti condenser mic. I am (obviously) not sophisticated in these matters, but I have tried all the settings on the mic itself and the Audacity audio setup. I cannot understand how it is possible.
Possibly WIndows Audio Enhancements. Have you tried Effect > Amplify ?
Thanks. I don’t show “Amplify” in the Effects menu. But in any event, why would the voice record but not music?
Stranger and stranger… I played a song from my phone into the mic - vocals came through (though distorted) and no instruments at all. This never happened on earlier versions of Audacity
It might be under Volume and Compression.
Thanks. I tried that and got loud, distorted vocal, no instrument. Is there some easy way to go back to an earlier version of Audacity?
Even more strange - just had a Zoom session with my guitar instructor. Same issue - he could hear vocal but no music. Windows 11 issue? I am researching (I can’t be the only one, can I??!!)
Thank you, thank you. It is now recording the instruments (I can’t hear it on playback, as I can’t seem to get the volume up through the laptop speakers, but I am working on that).
Thanks again.
Well, it worked until the next Windows update, then had to do it all over again.
