Hi my name is davday I'm a 74 year piano/guitarist and just laying down my goals in Audacity for this coming year.
My main aims are to make backing tracks, slowdown, speedup, loop, and store, it sounds so simple but when you
haven't a clue what you are doing its a challenge under lockdown times. This week I'm going to have a go at bringing
a jam track over from my MP3, and give my self little challenges, and exercises to do throughout the year, I will shear
my results on the forum. At 74 for me on a computer I have good days and slow days but am willing to learn.
Stay Safe to all.

Good Morning Steve,
Have been happy making backing Tracks, then no sound at all. The following message came on the screen.
Error opening sound device try changing the audio host playback device and the project sample rate. I was doing ok
until I recorded a music track but only still using my laptop microphone. Please any help appreciated and thanks
in advance bearing in mind I haven't a clue on technical answers.
Thanks Davday.
