Wel this is sound recorded with Audicity which isn't a real hit (if u know what I mean) It is suposed to be a song from youtube! so I searched for answers but did'nt find any (That worked)
BTW I have vista (Poor me )

Uh ok no reply so that means it is impossible to solve ? Oh boy can't get any better can't it?
Ah well was worth trying

Indeed poor you with Vista - I insisted that Dell "downgraded" my new laptop to XP-Pro !

I therefore have no experience with vista but you may find help on these pages from the Audacity Wiki:

Wel I wil get xp too later but until now it did'nt work on xp either ( My parents have XP) is there some dll you need or an other file like that? Is there a bug in the program, Or what is wrong?

My suspicion is that you need to change some settings in the Windows Mixer (see waxcylinder's second link).
When you have selected "Stereo Mix" as the recording source, all unused inputs (microphone, CD, Aux, Line in, ...) should be muted otherwise they will add noise to the recording. "Stereo Mix" will record ALL sounds that are going through your sound card, not just the sounds that are generated within the computer, therefore unused inputs must be turned down or off (muted).

Hi there.
I have only just joined and I don't know very much about anything as this is my first attempt at editing music.
However, I am writing to say that I have downloaded Audacity to Vista - and apart from my own inexpertise, it seems to be working o.k.
I haven't recorded any cd's yet, but I have copied some audio cassettes to my pc and they have turned out o.k. except for some background noise which I am working on.
