Skype Interview Not Recording

Post by ButWhy » Wed Feb 17, 2016 7:00 am

I have Audacity 2.0.5 sitting on top of Windows 7 Enterprise.

I'd like to record an interview using Skype of another person using their cell phone.

I can't seem to get it to work as if I set it to MME it records the person on the cell. If I use Winapi, it records me on my headset but not the person on the call.

Any idea what I am doing wrong and how to make it work?

Th current version of Audacity is 2.1.2: http://audacityteam.org/download/windows.

We discourage using Audacity to record Skype. Use an app meant for recording Skype instead: http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... 41#p265341 . That way you will record both sides of the call.
