Select or enter a longer time in the Length box in the New Sound window. If you do not know how long recording will last, you can enable the Unbounded recording option under the Control Record Properties press the F11 key then choose the Record tab.

You should still specify an ample length when creating the file, otherwise you will not be able to see recording update past the initial length even though recording will continue. To record in GoldWave, you need to make some connections, create a new file, select the recording input, adjust volumes, then start recording. Step 1 Connect the cassette deck, amplified turntable output, radio, or other audio device to the computer's Line In socket usually blue.

Or connect a microphone to the Mic In socket usually pink. Do not connect an line output to the Mic In socket because that will cause distortion and may overload the sound hardware.

Step 2 Use the File New command to create a new file. For CD quality recording, use stereo and a rate of Hz. You can enter the recording duration in the Length box. Step 3 Once the file has been created, you need to select the recording input on your computer and adjust the volume. Choose the Device tab. In the Record area, select the device you want to record Line, Microphone, etc.

If the device isn't listed, make sure it is connected and turned on. Use the Volume fader to adjust the volume level at any time. Optional: Use the Test button to test the device and adjust the volume. Troubleshooting information related to Vista, 7, and later, can be found here.

It displays recording sources and volume levels. See the help for more information. Select either the Line item or the Microphone item, depending on the connection you are using. Use the Monitor input option on the Record tab to activate the visuals and level meters. Follow these steps see illustrations below : Choose Options Properties from the menu. In the Adjust volumes for rectangle, click on Recording.

Make sure that "Line" and "Microphone" or other sources of interest are checked in the Show the following volume controls list. Choose OK. You should now see volume controls again, but these will be for recording sources instead of playback. Each source has a Select box. Check the box 5 for the source you want to use and make sure that the volume is not at the bottom 6. You should uncheck all other Select boxes to prevent noise on those source from being recorded.

Make sure the volume controls title changes to Recording Controls. If not, then you must go back and follow the above steps. If you find that the recording volume is too low or too high, no matter how you set it, check to see if your sound card or external device has a master recording volume control and adjust that volume.

In some cases, you may need to adjust the playback volumes as well. Some sound cards feed the volume of the playback into the recording, making it necessary to adjusting both controls. To view the playback volume controls, right-click on the speaker icon in the taskbar and select "Open Volume Mixer" or "Open Volume Control". Be aware of potential feedback issues.

If a microphone is placed too close to amplified speakers, feedback will occur, resulting in poor recording quality or damaged equipment or hearing. In recent versions of Windows Vista, 7 or later To hear the live recording on your speakers or headphones whatever the default Windows playback device is : Choose Control Properties from the Options menu in GoldWave.

Choose the System tab. Choose the Configure button. Choose the Recording tab. Choose the recording device you are using in GoldWave. Choose the Properties button. Choose the "Listen" tab.

Check the "Listen to this device" box. Some devices not as common now have a direct analog connection between the recording input and the output. In that case you simply need to unmute the input so that is passes directly to the output. This method is preferred if available since no latency occurs and the recording device remains inactive. Choose the Playback tab. Choose the playback device you are using in GoldWave. Choose the "Levels" tab. Unmute the input you want to hear.

If no "Unmute" items are listed, this method is not supported by your computer. Some sound card drivers will mute the input to prevent feedback whenever you start recording, so you may have to unmute it again after recording starts. If you are using a USB audio device for recording and a sound card for playback, there is no direct audio connection between the two.

You'd need to connect speakers to the USB audio device if possible. Another alternative would be to configure GoldWave to allow playback and recording at the same time. After you start recording, wait about a second, then start playback to hear what's being recorded.

One other option is to get a splitter cable so that the audio output can be connected to separate speakers and the computer's input or the USB audio input at the same time. A kHz sampling rate for audio is mostly a waste of space and may even lower quality. See this article for details. Such a high rate only makes sense for special applications, such as recording bat or dolphin ultrasound. Standard rates such as If you require a different rate and the rate is supported by your hardware, you'll need to turn off "Shared" quality and select "PCM 16 bit" or "PCM 24 bit" instead explained below.

Create a new file with the sampling rate required, then use the "Record Selection" button not the "Record New" button, which uses the device's default rate. Not all devices support that quality, so you may get an error when trying to record. If so, try "PCM 16 bit" instead. A line-level output must be connected to the computer's line input blue for best quality. If you connect a line-level output, such as headphone or stereo RCA outputs, to the microphone input, that will overload the microphone input, causing excessive volume and distorted recording.

Some modern microphone inputs are dual purpose and can be configured to accept a line-level or microphone-level signal. You may be prompted to select the purpose when you plug something in or you may have to configure it under Control Panel.

Some computer microphone inputs are mono and cannot receive stereo audio. If you have a laptop that does not have a line input, you will need to purchase a USB audio device that has one, such as the Griffin iMic or similar device. See "Stream Recording" in the GoldWave help for more information. Some computers do not have any way of recording the audio directly. You will need to buy a short stereo splitter cable to connect the speaker output green to the Line-in blue , then select "Line" as the source or device.

Another alternative is to use a virtual sound driver like Total Recorder. Short Stereo Cable. Splitter Cable and Stereo Cable. Products Support Forums About. GoldWave VideoMeld Apps.

Re: help with mp3 encoder Post by DougDbug » Sat Jul 05, pm I'm not sure where it normally goes, but GoldWave normally installs it automatically if you follow the instructions, or you can "point" GoldWave to its location.

If you've downloaded it manually, make sure you install the bit or bit version that matches your GoldWave version. You must have an active Internet connection that does not require the use of a proxy server. Choose the Browse button if the encoder is already installed to provide the location of the encoder to GoldWave. Choose Cancel to save the file in a different format.
