Re: wasapi

The link I gave previously should help:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Release_Notes_2.1.2#wasapi .

Also you may need to turn on Exclusive Mode for your device
in Windows Sound then set Audacity Project Rate bottom left to
a rate supported by the device. Help > Audio Device Info... top
right of Audacity should show the sample rates the device
supports. For details, see:
http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Windows_7_OS#sample_rates

(it applies to all versions of Windows Vista and later).

Also try turning Transport > Overdub off.

Note that if the audio you want to record is playing on an application
that demands exclusive access to the sound card, such as some
games, then WASAPI loopback cannot record that audio.
