Re: Stereo Recording

Gale,

    There are times I can be such a dummy. It took me a while to find it
since the link only talks about Windows 7, not Windows 10. I had to do some
digging but I found it. And yes it was set to 1 channel. I updated it to 2
channel as suggested and it work. There are times for a computer guy (been
working on them for over 35 years) I can be stupid. Thanks everyone for all
the help. I love using Audacity.
