I started with one microphone: I bought an external USB audio card and

into the USB port of my computer. Then I plugged the microphone into
the `mic'
input of the card and started Audacity. From the main menu, I
selected the
`USB PnP Sound Device' as recording device, pressed the red button,
spoke into
the mic but no sound is recorded: not even the usual wave forms are
shown.
Neither with socks nor arecord can I record my voice from that USB
card. Any
idea...?
Audacity is doing what you told it to do -- record from the USB audio
interface device. Plug your microphone into that.
