Hi. Do you have any suggestions if the only recording device your computer shows is microphone, and you do have show hidden devices checked? And, if that same computer should be able to use stereo mix if it has xp installed? All I have is microphone, how annoying, I've been going crazy trying to figure out how to get something like wave out mix, or what you hear, surely this comp can do it, it has a realtech. And to make it on topic, this made it really hard to record my podcast for miriani, I had to interface with my olympus and have it do the recording, and the laptop had the playback microphone unmuted, so we got my laptop's mic and it's sounds going into the mic jack on the olympus, and I got to hear it through the olympus's headphone jack because it monitors when you're recording.
