AUDACITY SETTINGS

first three, lets go over those settings now.
AUDIO I/O
The
Audio I/O
tab is where you choose how
AUDACITY
sends and receives audio for
most computers this is automaticaly set once
you plug in the iConnex sound card.
These settings are as follows:
“
Playback
” Determines which output Audacity
will play out of. Choose Microsoft sound
manager if you wish for Audacity to play out of
your computers speakers. Or choose “USB
audio Codec” if you are going to be using the
iConnex soundcard as your output device.
“
Recording
” The “DEVICE” should be set to
“USB audio Codec” Audacity will then be set
to record from either the LINE or PHONO
input of the iConnex soundcard, depending on
which one you are using. “Channels should be
set to the default “2 (Stereo)“ then there are
two extra features that can be chosen, the first
box “Play other tracks while recording new
one” should be UNCHECKED. The second
box “Software play through (play new track
while recording it)“ should be CHECKED.
Once you have made these settings you can
click the next TAB.
