Noob Issue.

Post by PatZ112233 » Thu May 20, 2010 5:06 pm

I just downloaded it, I had used it before and had this set up working.. Deleted it and am not friends with the one who set it up in the first place.

I have a set up which includes.. A 1/4 to 1/8 jack.. Plugs into the microphone jack and leads into the RP 90 pedal... Into the Right out. The left out is leading into the amp.. and the input is the guitar.

The computer says it has found the microphone, but when I try to record.. nothing happens.. It is vista.

In Audacity, select the microphone input for the sound device you are connected to at Edit > Preferences: Audio I/O. If the input isn't listed or doesn't record, exit Audacity and enable and make default the mic input in the Recording tab of "Sound" in the Windows Control Panel. Also turn the input level of the mic up as described in the link.

Consider using Audacity 1.3.12 instead (the Preferences section you want there is called "Devices"). 1.2.6 may crash when you stop recording.
