I have 2 problems, I have windows vista , audio techinca and a dj pyramid mixer
Im vinylripping ,
the first thing the sound card said and even tech support from creative says it records at 24bit
i rip in audacity with setting of 192/24 i save the file and opern up in Adove Audtion and file info says that the audio file is 16bit
my windows settings is set at 24/9600
why am i not recording or the exporting of the file why is it show to 16bit and not 24bit
Number 2
my soundcard audigy fx and NOISE when i turn the REC LINE IN volume up as in Humming/Buzzing OR Interference
I hear the NOISE when i rip my vinyl on the file itself
NOW to get rid of the noise in headphones i have to turn down the VOLUME on the LINE INPUT when recording, so that means that the AUDACITY RECORDING VOLUME GOES DOWN TOO…what happen now is when the volume is down on REC and if i turn UP MY MIXER VOLUME I can still hear and see the WAVEFORM Recording in AUDACITY even though the VOLUME in Recording is all the way down
SO how im i still getting volume waveform into audacity is the volume is down on the recording slider in audacity ???
It is recommended that you set Audacity recording options to “32-bit float” format. This is the default. Audacity works internally in 32-bit float format, so this setting provides the best quality processing. The format of the exported file will be whatever format you select when you export.

noise is an analog problem… If the noise is coming form the analog-side of your soundcard, increasing the recording-volume will improve the signal-to-noise ratio. If the noise is coming from the mixer or turntables, then when you adjust the recording volume you are adjusting the signal and noise together and that doesn’t help.
Phono preamps are required to have a lot of gain, they have high impedance unbalanced inputs, and the RIAA curve requires that the the lows are boosted (and the highs reduced). All of that means they are prone to hum pickup, and any hum that’s picked-up will be strongly amplified.

Doesn’t your mixer have its own headphone-out with its own volume control? What’s more important to you, the headphone sound or the Audacity recording?
