You are very welcome. One other item you might need to check is in preferences. Here is what is on the audacity web site about "multi-tracking".
Can I play a track while recording a new one on top of it?
This is called multi-track recording. It makes it possible to record harmonies with yourself, or add new instruments or vocals to an existing recording. To do this in Audacity, follow these instructions:
If on Windows or Linux, in the dropdown menu on Audacity's Mixer Toolbar, choose the correct input you are plugged into (probably microphone or line-in). On Windows Vista, choose your input on the Audio I/O tab of Preferences instead.
Import or record the first track.
Open the “Audio I/O” section of the Audacity preferences, and check the box labeled Play other tracks while recording new one.
Close the preferences and press the Record button. If you are recording from a microphone, make sure you use headphones so that the microphone picks up only what you are recording.
Good luck to you.
