Gray box and not recording from turntable in stereo

Post by G-man » Sun Aug 30, 2009 1:58 am

Hello G-man checking in. Have a laptop with Vista. Audacity 1.2.6 Experiencing the gray box. Can't change from Line in to Microphone. Also when recording from my turntable, everything is coming out in mono. In the Audio I/O tab under preferences, 2 Channels is showing. I have version 1.2.4 on my desktop with no problems.

G-man ,

Check out Using the Control Panel.

If this doesn't help, try downloading the current beta release. Audacity 1.2.x sometimes doesn't play well with Vista.

I hope this helps.
