Since a “pure” digital recording doesn’t do that, you’re not performing a pure recording. With version 2.0.2 under Windows XP 32 bit I could adjust the input sound level to Audacity totally independently from the speaker volume.ĭoes anyone have any suggestions as to overcome either of these problems?

Fortunately, I can mute the speakers and this still leaves the previous volume level being recorded but I often wish to have the sound audible in background so that I can monitor what is happening. As such I cannot separately turn down the speaker volume whilst recording. The input volume level is now linked to the speaker volume level.This is quite noticeable on the first recording and if I record the recording of a recording etc., the result becomes unusable. When I record directly from, say, a track already on my computer, the recorded version is much more trebly than the original.For many years previously I had used versions 2.0.2, 1.3.x and 1.2.x under Windows XP 32 bit and did not experience either problem. Both of these problems also occurred when I temporarily used version 2.0.2 with Windows 7 64 bit. I am now using Audacity version 2.0.3 downloaded as an exe file, with Windows 8 64 bit and I am currently experiencing 2 problems.
