Embarrassing question!!!

Post by Music Guy123 » Sun Jun 05, 2011 7:04 pm

Hi there, probably a very stupid question but anyway here it is:

Is it possible to record from the sound card on Windows 7 and if so, how do you do it???

Any help appreciated.

The "record what U hear" aka "stereo mix" aka "wave out" option may be present but invisible in "windows recording devices" see here on how to make it visible ... http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... +invisible

NB: Some computer manufacturers have not included the "record what U hear" option, which was previously widely available, to avoid getting sued for enabling copyright theft. There are workarounds ... http://forum.audacityteam.org/viewtopic ... r+#p144890
