I assume that you are using Windows Vista or later and that you have installed Audacity 2.1.0 on your computer.
I have therefore moved this topic to the Windows forum.

The manual for the TASCAM US-122 mkII may be downloaded from here: http://tascam.com/product/us-122mkii/downloads/

In short, the Tascam should be connected to the computer and working BEFORE you launch Audacity. Check in the Windows Sound Control Panel that the Tascam is recognised by Windows and that Windows is receiving a signal. The Tascam should then be selectable in the device toolbar.
