Audactity only records one channel

Post by toxicsnafu » Tue Jan 27, 2009 10:04 am

Hi, someone posted about this already but my situation is a little different

I'm using a USB microphone which works, but when I try to record more than one channel, the second channel is automatically cut down to one second, I can't record more than one channel

Audacity won't let me record unless I have the audio setting to "1 Mono" so I'm not sure how to solve this problem

does anyone know what can be done?

I have a microphone that does that.

Select the whole track. Edit > Select > All, or click inside the left work panel.

Edit > Duplicate.

Dropdown Menu on the left > Make Stereo Track.
