Audacity Forum

Hi, I want to use audacity to record audio that I'm playing through my computer but whenever I try to do this, I also end up recording my mouse clicks, key tapping, breathing etc.! I want to know, how do I stop audacity from recording all these external sounds while still recording what I'm listening to online, for example?

Thanks in advance,

Vicki

You are recording your built-in microphone.

Some computers do this a lot better than others.
