Linux Mint - how to record internet sound on Audacity
« on: Sat, 18 January 2025, 17:53:07 »
I asked this a couple of years ago the last time I did a major system update, but I can't find it again.

After quite a bit of searching, I get suggestions but they simply don't work. For example, why is "What U Hear" simply not there in any of the recording menus or drop-down?

As I remember, ALSA is an acceptable host (the only one I find) but for Playback and/or Recording Device there are precious few choices and although "pulse" is supposed to be adequate, it isn't.

As always, I appreciate your help.




“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value, or is stamped with the authority of more enlightened patrons of liberty: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands .… may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison, Federalist 47
“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48
