It should be impossible to make a bad recording and still hear good audio. When you listen, the show will be delayed, possibly significantly, but that means the show has been inside Audacity and come back out again. Are you? De-select Overdubbing in that panel. Make sure you're set to play to the computer's headphone connection, not the interface. Set Audacity > Preferences > Recording: Playthrough (both if you have two). What's the show? Singing? Playing instruments? Gregorian chants? If you are not one of the principal performers, you can listen to the computer playback. I'm going through the list of pathways and services trying to think of a trap.

Did it crack at the same time?ĭo you remember which Audacity version did work? Just because I'm obsessive: while it's broken, do headphones plugged into the mixer sound OK?ĭo whatever you need to do to reset back to normal and make another similar recording. Doesn't have to be an hour.ĭoes it come back to normal if you close and restart Audacity?
Only you know what the experimental time should be. Start a recording with the microphone listening to a radio or something identifiable and then just let it go for an hour or so. You take your car in for a noise and it doesn't do it while it's there, but the instant you get it home. It's that you can't reproduce the problem. Oddly, the worst part of this problem isn't the damaged audio. Can't waste those clock cycles.įourth little blue tick down on the left.
