Audacity Forum

I am recording (ver 1.3.x) voice and have setup the configuration (Preferences / Recording / Channel) as MONO
Also the Audio Track is set to show MONO

Issue
* When I record, the voice shows in one Channel - but its divided into two (see attached file)
* I am not sure what is wrong

Thanks alot for any advise

That is a problem, but it's not one channel of a stereo pair. It is a mono track, but the signal is shifted vertically (by a long way). This is called "DC Off-set" and that is an extremely bad case of DC Off-set. The problem is usually (but not always) caused by a faulty sound card.

Tell us about your set-up (we can't see it) and what you are doing. Too much information is better than not enough.
