No longer recording sound.

Post by JohnnyKnodoff » Sun May 09, 2010 5:25 am

I've been using Audacity 1.3 Beta for putting sound over some gameplay videos. Everything was working fine earlier today, I had no changes to the computer, and Fraps and other programs are still able to record my mic with no problem. I press the record and the bars dont respond , I haven't changed any settings or anything else, can anyone help? Would be greatly appreciated to get these last few videos done.

Maybe some other program changed the input? That affects Audacity if you have it set to record fron Sound Mapper or Primary Capture Driver. See:

and:

if you need to change the input in the Windows mixer.
