From the look I took of your pictures, it appears that you do not have the arm for record button. It was hard to tell with the menu screen over the audio track header. This is an odd issue indeed. Make sure that VV detects your sound card properly. If VV does not detect an audio device, I don't think it will give you the recording functions.

The two images you provided in the other forum obscure the area of the track where the audio button in question should be, so they don't help.

Assuming your have a mike, it is connected correctly, turned on and all that here's what you should be able to do.

1. On the audio track you want to record to move your mouse over the first ROUND button at the very head of the track, it should turn red. If so, click it and another window will pop up to allow you to name the file and specify where to save the audio file.

2. Click on the timeline where you want the voice over to start. Probably best to add a new track before you start and record to it.

3. On the scruber bar where the video controls are at the bottom of all the tracks is another ROUND audio button. Click it when you're ready to record. That should add a DB bar to the audio track that is green in color.

4. Begin to do your voice over. Hit the stop or pause button when you're done. Confirm the file name you want to save as.

First of all, shut off Naturally Speaking. It's likely intercepting the record line and vegas is just silently failing to aquire the recording input.

Especially if the mic works in NS, you know you've got the unput setup correctly, you just need to let Vegas have a crack at it.

Easy fix, your track headers are too narrow, grab the vertical splitter bar and make them wider. The Arm for Record button will appear.
