Noise when recording with UCA202

Post by brenomacedo » Wed Oct 13, 2010 2:48 pm

Hi to all.

I've recently got the Behnringer usb interface UCA202.

When I try to record something from it with audacity, there is always noise on the background. Even when there is nothing plugged in the interface, Audacity captures noise.

Is that normal? If not, how can I solve this problem?

I am running audacity 1.3.12 in a hp windows 7 64bit laptop.

Thanks!

Go into the Windows Control Panel and check that ONLY the USB device is enabled for recording.
(some hints about this here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer ... _Issues#cp )

What is it that you are trying to record?
