Audacity only creates another empty track when i hit record
Posted: Thu May 31, 2018 7:21 pm
for context:
Audacity version 2.2.1 (Ubuntu Bionic Official Release)
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, XFCE desktop
I'm trying to make use of the overdubbing, and wish to record a second track below a first pre-recorded track. i hit the record button, record some test audio, and then stop the recording. when i hit the record button again, a new track does appear - Audacity dosen't record anything to it though. i had trouble finding an issue like this in the forum, so let me know if it's a duplicate!
when running through the terminal, i see this message appear consistently when i attempt to record additional tracks:
all help appreciated! thanks in advance
