MIKE INPUT

I have windows 10 and audacity 2.2.2 - when I record I voice files in the right channel over the music in the left channel I get an echo in the voice files. I use to be able to fix that in my older windows 8.1 but making making sure I had the mike shown in the front - when I change that in the audacity 2.2.2 all I get is a distorted voice file. When I change it back to another mike input I get a clear recording but with a very back echo - it should like i'm in a deep well - HELP

Make sure you've selected the correct Recording Device where the mic is plugged in. (Don't record from Stereo Mix or Loopback.)

And, make sure Windows "Enhancements" are turned off.

If that doesn't help, tell us what microphones and any other equipment you're using and how everything is connected.
