I cannot believe Magix charge us for technical support. I am no computer genius so need a little help from time to time, and need to speak to someone, £20?

Anyway my problem, I cannot record from internet radio. Some settings must be wrong somewhere ? I have just bought a new computer with windows 7. My last had XP and I had Audio Cleaning Lab 3 which worked great but was not compatible with windows7

Anyone HELP

How were you able to record internet radio previously?

If ACL-3 does not work in Windows 7, then what are you using now?

I bought the latest ACL 17 which does everything the old one did except internet recording

Since you didn't answer my first question with any useful detail, I have to assume the ability to record from the internet was internal to the program, yes?  There's probably one main reason you are no longer able to do this...

Recording media off of the "air-waves" is no doubt a violation of the owner's copyright, therefore it is technically illegal.  So, software and hardware companies have now made it more difficult (if not impossible) to do.

Hi

Let us seperate the issues here:

COPYRIGHT

Recording media of the air-waves and live radio streaming off the internet is a grey area legal wise.  The only way to get a definite answer over whether you can record an Internet radio stations broadcast is to search the site concerned for any legal definitions of what you can or cannot do; or contact the station for clarification.

Certainly recording songs etc for financial gain is breaking copyright, recording songs for personal compilation instead of buying the songs is also breaking copyright.  Recording an entire program for later playback may not be breaking copyright - it depends on the stations terms and conditions for listening.

If in doubt always assume you are breaking copyright.

 

Recording Sound

This is an issue with your sound card - if it is a Realtek HDA then the stereo mixer is not enabled.

To do this open Control Panel and select Sound.  Select the Recording tab, right click the centre area and check  Show disabled Devices and Show Disconnected Devices.  You should now see that the Stereo Mixer is there but disabled, right click it and enable it.

John

I have the same issue (I think).   If I record anything in Audio Cleaning Lab from a source coming from the Internet, the audio is distorted and wobbly.

Now the stock answer is "check your sound card," but that's not the issue, because I had the trial version of Audio Cleaning Lab 17 and it worked fine.  Because of that,  I bought the license and entered the code to activate the trial version, so I didn't even install the software again.  But now it is useless for that purpose.  

I'm also using Windows 7.  I had a previous version of Audio Cleaning Lab running on Vista (and before than XP) and never had this issue.

I would appreciate any suggestions.
