    Seeking Stero Mix


    I am lost in the videos and pages.
    I have three mics set in my computer: two USB and one analog.
    I have been round and round and I still do not have a clue how to find a solution: I want to get two of the mics feeding into Audacity.

    Everything seems in order but I have not been able to sort out how to get the stereo mixer going.

    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.



    If you need to see more shots let me know which ones and I will post them. For some reason the second USB mic does not show in this clip.

    Set Stereo Mix as default Recording Device. Then whatever mic (input) is used Audacity (also set to Stereo Mix) will be used.
    I have a recording studio and I don't know if Audacity will record from two mics at the same time.

    Suggest you look at the free Cakewalk by BandLab (formerly Sonar) recording studio program. Its a professional program and what I use in my recording studio. You must first download the BandLab Assistant and then download Cakewalk from the Assistant.

    Thanks for the reply and tips .

    Will check out the apps tonight.

    Audacity saw all three mics but I could not figure out how to make them recognize any sounds produced by them.

    Audacity does have a provision for simultaneously recording from two mics but the tutorial for making it work , I think, is very convoluted and difficult to follow. But then again I have no prior experience with such so it may b e clearer to skilled individuals.

    Hello @mikeincousa

    Audacity can record only one source even if you open more instances (tracks).

    Cakewalk can record multiple sources but in different/individual tracks. You have to set the desired source for each track and then, if you like you may mix them.
