Audacity Forum

I'm trying to record from a Behringer 1204 USB to Audacity. The mic is active, and I can hear everything in the headphones, and I can even hear audio from the computer to the headphones through the mixer, so I know the connection between mixer and computer is there. When I record in Audacity, though, nothing comes through from the active mic. I've fiddled with the "recording devices" in my Windows toolbar, trying everything there; I also tried all of the options in the edit > preferences menu in Audacity itself. Nothin'.

Any other suggestions for me?

PS - I'm running Windows Vista, 32-bit.

Ensure that the USB device is connected and working BEFORE you opn Audacity. Then go to "Edit menu > Preferences > Devices" and select the USB option in "Record" and "Playback".
