Re: codec and boom

Keith,Does your mixer show as an audio input device in the windows device manager?
What other software might be open that accepts the mixer datastream? (Some background software may interfere with the operation)
If you rightclick on the speaker symbol next to the WiFi symbol near the clock in the lower right corner of your Windows display, select recording devices and see if the mixer is there.Also check out the troubleshoot sound problems at the bottom of the list.

   Hello, 
     
   - With recording device usb selected I get no sound recorded
   - Bellow A below middle C I get bathroom boom described below:
 I use Windows 10 on an Aspire Switch 12 
 
 Audacity 2.1.3 
 
 Rode 3 microphone 
  into 
 
 Behringer XENYX USB mixer into 
 
 the USB port;  I use a USB hub port with four slots, one of which takes the output from the mixer. 
 
     
   - I need at least one other for the USB mouse controller 
  
 No - I don't use the computer's built-in microphone 
 
 The bathroom boom might be better described as follows: 
 
 Quite suddenly as you move down from just above A3 to just below A3 the sound intensity falls quite dramatically; you might better call it a drop-out. In a day or two I'll post the recording I made. 
  
  Many thanks,
 Keith
