I tried Audacity and couldn't figure out how to record more than one track.

It is really not so much a multitrack program as it is a wav editor.
I use it to convert MP3's to wav when doing online collaborations.It works well in this capacity.

Here's a page over at Sourceforge that is all sorts of audio programs.

simultaneously? i'm not sure if it can do that...
however, if you record more than once in a session it will automatically spawn a separate track.
for my needs right now, I really like audacity -- but i'm not exactly a power user yet. I downloaded the low end sound forge and honestly, I like the capabilities in audacity a lot more... ironic.
hope this helps!

I don't know how I got it to work with a single track before, but now that I'm trying Audacity again it won't let me record at all. It says "Error while opening sound device. Please check the input device settings and the project sample rate."
Audacity recognizes my Firepod in the Audio I/O section of the Preferences. It's currently set on "Channels: 1(mono)" because I only have my guitar plugged in.
This problem isn't really addressed in the manual or on the Audacity website, so do any of you know what to do?

Your mo-o-ovin' so fast..
hey
hey since no one else has mentioned this i guess i will. No you cant record more than one track at a time in Audacity. I dont know about krystal (spl?), but you can record unlimited tracks in "Reaper." Its an awesome program with alot of features and of course, it's free!
check it out here im constantly really impressed by it:
http://www.cockos.com/reaper/index.php
new versions come out almost every few days, around three a week, which is crazy. So if anyone does end up downloading it (only about 1 mb), make sure to check for the updates!
best of luck with everything!!

i know this is standard, but from what i remember, they have a realy good forum. So see if you can get any help there, and of course: check the cables, ect. see if your firepod works with another program, see if its just that line-in thats maybe broken?
best of luck though,

Kristal and Reaper are both for Windows only 
. A bunch of users there are suggesting a program called Soundflower which routes all the input to Audacity. By adjusting the settings in Audacity, Soundflower, and the System Prefs, I'm able to do away with the "error" message. It doesn't matter, though, because Audacity quits unexpectedly when I click the record button. I'm just going to give up and wait for my friend to let me borrow his software. I can't see why so many people like to use Audacity for its MP3/WAV conversion as it doesn't work 
for me, at least. But, still... argh.
Also, I'm guessing that simultaneous recording of multiple inputs results in one track.
Thanks for the reply, harry. I was just about to post back here, actually! I already posted at the forums and found that Audacity doesn't recognize ASIO drivers or Firewire devices... or something like thathrwmusic said:
