Recording sound from Audacity

[SirRiche]

Hello guys!

Not sure where to post this, but I post it in here.

Im trying to record a sound file from the Internet directly with Audacity, but fails. I have Stereo Mix on and tried to experiment with Windows Sound options but still nothing works. Even checked the preferences from Edit.
Any ideas?

Recording with Audacity is straight forward normally. You could reinstall it.
That is the first thing I would do. Can you record with Windows Sound Recorder?

You can't save the file first, and then import it ?

Hello

Thanks for the replies everyone!

I have already checked this site: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help...ng&i=streaming

But it also says there: "If this doesn't work on your computer, you can instead use a cable to connect your computer's “Line Out” (speaker) port to its “Line In” port, and use Audacity to record from Line In". Im not sure how to do that.

And i even have tried out Windows soundrecorder and it didnt work. Im trying to reinstall it then. Or get an older version?

Well I can save it and import it back to Audacity, yes.

Then why not do that ?

[SirRiche]

Because there is no sound that I recorded.

But else I might try in school to record the sounds.

Nope. It seems it doesn't work at school either.
