Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)
I've been experiencing completel failure when recording - only in stereo, no other tracks on playback or record. This seems to happen at least three or four times in a days work. I'm so paranoid now I restart audacity every time I record a new track.

This is the crash dump - any advice greatfully received!

Thanks

    | Subject: [Audacity-help] Goes BANG when recording - quite regular
    | problem here!
    | I've been experiencing completel failure when recording - only in stereo,
    | no other tracks on playback or record. This seems to happen at least
    | three or four times in a days work. I'm so paranoid now I restart  
    | audacity every time I record a new track.
    | This is the crash dump - any advice greatfully received!

What is your "recording device" in the Audio I/O tab of Audacity Preferences,
what input are you physically recording and how is it connected to the
computer (e.g. line-in into a Firewire mixer, microphone into computer
microphone port)?  Are you enabling "software playthrough" or "hardware
playthrough" on the same tab? Software playthrough only works when the
recording and playback devices on the Audio I/O tab are the same. For
hardware playthrough to work this may be very dependent on your hardware
and drivers.

Have you got your recording device and input source set up at Mac hard disk >
Applications > Utilities > Audio - MIDI Setup, and matched the Project Rate
bottom left of the Audacity screen) and sample format (Quality tab of Audacity
Preferences) with your Audio Input settings in Audio-MIDI Setup?  

Do the crashes occur during a recording, or as soon as you press the record
button?    

If you are using the built-in sound device to record, you may have a
problem with your sound device drivers.  Please see our advice here:  
http://audacityteam.org/wiki/index.php?title=Updating_Sound_Device_Drivers

If you are using an external USB or Firewire recording device I would
recommend you using Audacity Beta 1.3.3 as that supports a much wider
range of external devices on Macs.
