Re: Help! Audacity suddenly flatlining?

M,

I have already answered this when you wrote to our feedback
address (which is not a support address). 

Here is the answer again, given the operating system information
you provided there.

Please see this page to make sure that you have correct Windows 10
audio drivers supplied by the computer or motherboard manufacturer:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Windows_10_OS#drivers .

You may then have to go into Windows Sound:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Mixer_Toolbar_Issues#vistacp

to enable Stereo Mix or Wave Out for recording computer playback.

Then restart Audacity and choose Stereo Mix or Wave Out in 
Device Toolbar:
http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/device_toolbar.html . 

If ensuring you have correct drivers does not give you Stereo Mix
or Wave Out,  then you can record computer playback in Audacity
using the Windows WASAPI (loopback) method:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.1.2#wasapi .

Obviously we assume you have copyright holders' permission to
record the songs you desire from YouTube.
