All I really want to to do is to record a single, mono track using a usb adaptor connected to a mixer. AND play back a stereo track to the same device. Here's the rub ... 1. If I play and record using audacity though the behringer uca202 I get awful chattering on the record. Just recording is fine, playback buggers things. 2. So, I have audacity play out on the existing audio speakers and record via the usb. That works, but I don't have software monitoring of my record. I'm playing a sax ... putting on headphones and listening to the background and not really hearing what I'm playing results if truly out of tune sax playing ... I was starting to think I was just very bad :) 3. Enabling software monitor in audacity results in too much load, and the recording goes to shit again. So, I thought that I'd try jackd ... now have more problems :) -- **** Listen to my CD at http://www.mellowood.ca/music/cedars **** Bob van der Poel ** Wynndel, British Columbia, CANADA ** EMAIL: bob@xxxxxxxxxxxx WWW: http://www.mellowood.ca _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
