Recording from stereo LP but tracks identical [SOLVED]

Post by TeruTalk » Sun Jun 25, 2017 1:15 am

Windows 10 - Audacity 2.1.3: I recently untangled driver problems, but I continue to see only two identical tracks when digitizing from stereo LP. MME set, rate at 44100, playthrough set and working fine. 2 stereo set. USB mic works well, speakers work also. I can hear the second track playing but only see identical wave forms on top and bottom of the screen ... help!

You have to change Windows to record in stereo too. See this FAQ: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_ ... #rinstereo.
