There is an annoying clicking sound whenever I record my guitar though Audacity using my internal mic on my ibook. I thought this was a software specific issue, but it appears to keep happening when I use other programs, such as SoundEffects and Audirecorder.

The siily thing abou this clicking is that it doesn't necessarily happen when I'm overpowering the mic; it happens sometimes when I strum particular chords.

Does anyone have any tips on getting rid of these clicks when recording? Is there a dependable shareware application that has clean recording through the internal mic?

Thank you.
Douglas.

Have you tried the "Felt Tip Sound Studio 2.1" that comes with the Apple systems Bundle?
There is also Audio In 1.0.3 Freeware by Mashiro na Zenshi / Pandaa <pandaa@swipnet.se>.

Geez, so many possible sourses for a clicking
Maybe something mechanical hitting the computer, desk or even floor - since the built in mic woluld be sensitive to such contact.
Have you tried putting your ear on the computer to see if it emits any clicks?
Also, a keboard connected through midi might be handshaking with the computer

I usually erase clicks by pasting a nearby sound wave (as small as possible) over the offending area.
There are a few click removal programs, "arboretum's RayGun" is the only one that comes to mind tho.
