I've been using Applian's Free Recorder (which is a browser toolbar) to record digital output from my computer, but I encountered a problem when recording each track separately. The program automatically stops recording and cuts the bass track into probably 50 pieces or so. I need another program to record directly from my computer. It might be noted the Audacity doesn't seem to work on my computer and I have a Toshiba Satellite L505 S6946, which only has a microphone and a headphone jack.
Thank you for your time.

How do you do multitrack and keep the tempo?
Anyway, myself I use Sound Forge and set up my recorder, (H2 Zoom) as a Windows input device, but that's just for vocals.
Then I use Ableton live to multitrack.
I'm curious how you can overdub with any regular sound editor like Audacity.Last edited by budwzr; 16th Nov 2010 at 20:16.

I'm just interested in recording the output from a program like Guitar Pro 5. Sorry I made the huge mistake of writing "recording input" not putting output. sorry.

Audacity should be good for this. What problems do you get with it?
However, if you need to listen to an already recorded track while recording output from another program (eg Guitar Pro), you probably need software like Total Recorder which acts like a separate sound device that you can route individual programs through. -
You have to select the appropriate source via your sound card's recording controls, eg
Control Panel->Sounds and Audio->Audio->Sound Recording->Volume
You should see an option there for Stereo Mix or such like.
The problem though is that selecting this source will also record Audacity's own output at the same time. This makes it difficult to do multitrack recordings as you can't usefully switch on the Overdub [see post #3] option (the old track will get re-recorded with the new one). That's why, if you are multitrack recording output from a program, you probably need to route that program's output to a separate virtual sound device [see post #6]. -
I cant seem to find that option. It might be noted that I'm using windows 7 and that the layout for the control panel is different. all I get when I go to "Sound" (there is no "Sounds and Audio" option) is my 2 microphones to select in the "Recording" tab.

Have you tried selecting it and opening the Properties or Configure?
It may be there is an option there to change the recording source to something else.
I'm only guessing here - I don't know about Windows 7 and maybe it's done in a different way. -
Unfortunately I can't do that... the properties have to do with the microphones. It's frustrating. Do you know of any other programs that wil record without automatically cutting the track when there is no sound (like a rest)?

Actually, if you can get samples of bass and make loops out of them, you can rearrange the song, change tempo, and pitch without having to play the whole thing over and over.
