Topic: Audacity Help

I need to know how to be able to hear one recording while recording. Could somebody please help me? mini/smile

Re: Audacity Help

1. Import the first recording into Audacity.
2. Return to the start of the timeline.
3. Click the record button. (Be sure you have headphones or earbuds in, otherwise the mic will pick up the first recording from the speakers.)

And that's it.

Re: Audacity Help

Hmmm, I just did it. mini/confused

Which version do you have?

Re: Audacity Help

newest version

Re: Audacity Help

I have 1.2.6 and it works fine.
I have had several problems with the "Beta 1.3.Whatever it was" and the newest version (2.0) is based off of that, so you may want to go download the older one.

Re: Audacity Help

Make sure the other recording isn't on mute, and try playing just that recording without earbuds, to make sure it's playing. If it does, which it should, then it's a problem with your earbuds. If it doesn't, then there must be something selected, like mute.

kcirb-- its brick backwards.
