Stereo Mix Problem

Post by aurelieduval24 » Wed Oct 27, 2010 9:31 am

I have been using the software for a while and I like it. But recently it seems that if I set the input to stereo mix, it doesn't pick up whatever I am recording. This is also true with cd's - setting it to cd does nothing, stereo does nothing. The only thing that picks up a signal is mono mix. Did I accidently set something somewhere that would cause this?

I presume that you are making these settings in Audacity?
You probably need to check your sound card "Recording" settings. Have a look in the Windows Control Panel to see which Recording Inputs are enabled.
