cannot record from minidisc

Post by stephanie » Mon Mar 10, 2008 9:17 am

Hello

I have just downloaded audacity and am trying to record sound from a minidisc. But toolbar message saying default input source won't let me change it to line in
So the computer a MAC OSX is recording the sound in the room instead

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Stephanie

Leave Audacity set to "Default" and go into...

Apple > System Preferences > Hardware > Sound

And reset it there. The Apple audio meter should pulse if you play the minidisk.
