Topic: Soundcard Troubles
I wasn't sure whether to put this in Software & Hardware or Audio, but here goes.
I'm having some troubles with my soundcard, at least I think it's my soundcard that's causing them. A few days ago when I was recording I noticed that everything was recording a bit quieter in the right speaker than the left speaker, but I didn't do anything about it because it didn't seem to make much of a difference. Then today I was recording again, and just when I was about to record the guitar part my computer suddenly started recording nothing at all in the left channel, which would be fair enough if I could just record in mono, but the right channel now sounds really really awful. I have tried recording through a microphone and a line-in, and they are both pretty darn awful. So I can either record in stereo and only have sound in one speaker, AND it'll sound sucky, or I can record in mono and have sound in both headphones, but have it sound suckier. It's a bit of a lose-lose situation really.
For someone who does lots and lots of recording I don't really know much about soundcards or anything. So, is there a way of sorting it out? Will I have to buy a replacement? CAN I buy a replacement?
Thanks
