Windows 10 Problems

Post by thomasbutler » Sun Aug 02, 2015 5:24 pm

Hey. I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and was going to edit a file on Audacity, but every time is says there is an internal audio port error when I have a working audio port for iTunes. Please someone help. I've already tried reinstalling ASIO4ALL

Audacity doesn't support ASIO, so it doesn't matter which drivers you install. You're pretty much limited to the normal Windows drivers and services. I don't know what those are because I'm a Mac elf. Other elves will be along.

Audacity as shipped does not support ASIO.

If you compile Audacity from source code, you can add ASIO support to it.

Audacity does not officially support Windows 10 yet.

The first step is to go to the web site of the computer manufacturer or motherboard manufacturer and see if you can find audio drivers for Windows 10 meant for your specific computer.

If that does not help, see this topic

and similar ones on http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewforum.php?f=46.

Here is from http://pureinfotech.com/2015/07/31/wind ... -features/:

“According to The Verge, Windows 10 Service Release 1 could arrive as early as next week. However, the servicing update won’t include any new features, it will only fix some of the problems users have been reporting with Windows 10.”
