I get an error message: "Error opening sound device. Try changing the audio host, project device and the project sample rate." I am using Windows 10 and the pic is what I see on launching Audacity software. I have adjusted the volume button on the Cassette capture but cannot get the volume button on the PC software to work. See enclosed picture.
I will be very grateful for any help here.

Re: Error opening sound device
Audacity can't see any audio devices connected to your computer. What audio devices do you have? (Please include any "virtual" devices)
