This potentially explains a lot. I tend to save things in dropbox because my
500 gig hard drive is 2/3 or 3/4 full. My external drives are in accessible at
this moment. Otherwise, I would save on them. So, thanks for the investigative
heads up.

Hi Adrian
I wonder if you are running out of space on that drive. At this time of
night nothing else springs to mind. But well done on your investigations.

Hi Andrew,
Update on my issue with multi tracks.
I thought before I tried all the suggestions you all made I would look at the
drive I saved my files on.
I ended up saving the files to a different drive rather than the default &
its all good.
Again, not sure why this would affect how many tracks I could record but its
working perfectly now.
Thanks again for all the help.
Regards
Adrian

Adrian, some food for thought during your investigations. You mention that
you have two sound cards but only use one. While I have not found Audacity
to be terribly fussy about such things, ideally the screen reader should be
on a separate card. That issue aside, it may be worth playing with advanced
settings for the card being used by Audacity. The easiest way to get to the
settings these days is to press Windows+r followed by mmsys.cpl and press
Enter. Select the Recording tab and go into Properties of the card Audacity
is using. Under Advanced, see whether exclusive mode is checked. If not,
check it. I am vague about the benefits or otherwise of giving exclusive
mode applications priority – unchecked seems to work here.

Hi David,
I just did some recording on my main pc & all is working fine.
I guess it must be some config issue on my other pc.
I do have 2 sound cards but only use one .
More investigation tomorrow.
Again, thanks for all the input.

Hi Adrian,
you have said previously that you use both Jaws and NVDA. Does this recording
problem occur with both screen readers?
thanks,
David.

Hi all,
Has anyone experienced the problem where after recording track 1 then track 2
without any problems, track 3 has no recording.
I have tried shift+r & also adding track then hitting r.
If I delete 1 of the 1st two tracks then it records again but no more than 2
tracks.
FYI, this is ver 2.3.3
Is there a setting I have missed that only alllows 2 track recording?
Thanks
Adrian
