These settings will be saved when you exit. However, you will need to select
Monitor Input
from the input meter’s drop-down menu each time you launch Audacity.
Other Important Macintosh Settings:
We have set up Audacity’s separate playback and record preferences, but your Mac also has
its own audio playback and record settings. When you first connect the turntable, the
Macintosh will often select the “USB Audio Codec” as the audio input and output for your entire
system. Since your turntable does not have speakers, audio will not be heard from your other
programs until you tell your Mac not to use the turntable as an output device.
Here’s how to change these settings so that your internal sound card will always be used for
playback, whether or not your turntable is connected via USB:
The Audio Midi Setup Utility:
1
