I have a Samson M10 Vocal Microphone that is plugged in by regular headphone plugin for mic on back of my emachines el1333G01w computer that has an nvidiaGeForce 6150 SE Integrated video card. my comp has windows 7 2gb DDR2 memory and an AMD athlon 2850 processor but whenever i record only one headphone works and when the recording is played back it does the same thingcan you help?

It's supposed to only record on the left side. When it's in "INST/MIC" mode the left channel has your mic on it and the right channel has your instrument, so you can mix them separately. Just configure your recording software to put the left channel on one track and the right channel on another track.

SOURCE: Cannot record both mic and electric guitar in daw

Disagree with previous post. The GTrack is designed to record vocals and a mono insrtument at the same time. That's its main selling point. It should also allow monitoring of both the vocals and guitar alongside the playback from the computer. In your computer's Control Panel, go to sound preferences, select the usb microphone and click on advanced tab. It is likely yours is set up to record 1 channel at CD quality - this is how many ship for some reason. Set it to 2 Channels CD quality.
In Sonar, set your track input as USB Left for the vocals, and USB Right for your guitar.

SOURCE: no recording?

In garageband when you have the gtrack set up , it will show you 2 options for input source 'USB Audio CODEC'. This is because you have 2 lines in, the mic and the jack. Make sure you have picked the correct one to record the vocals...otherwise it is expecting the jack input and will record nothing.

Hope this helps!

Make sure your recording onto a Mono track in your software, don't choose stereo when creating the track.
