RECORDING STEREO FROM TURNTABLE

Post by unied4 » Wed Apr 22, 2015 1:14 am

I have a PC with Windows 7. When I record in Audacity from my Encore Technology turntable I indicate 2(stereo)inp in the Audacity recording screen. My headset is plugged into my turntable and the sound I hear is in stereo. However, the music appears to record in mono not stereo. How do I record in stereo ?

USB Turntable?

Close Audacity and find the turntable in the Windows Control Panels. Does the sound meter jump with the music and is there a setting for Mono/Stereo?

If you have your turntable plugged into the analog Mic-In, that connection is usually mono.

If it's a USB turntable, see http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/fa ... k.html#usb.
