[SBE] Sound card issue -- Tell me I'm not crazy!

[Jon Frank]

You are correct.  I have a private client who had a similar problem. The fix was to make sure that his Digigram card was also selected in the as the default sound card under Sounds in the Windows control panel.  My client is now able to go on to the Internet, grab live audio and play it out of the card in to his Makie mixer. At the same time he can record the Makie mixer output through the input of his VX222.  He uses Adobe Audition 2 and this works fine.

It suddenly occurs to me that the reason for my trouble may be that, while the sound card is full-duplex (allowing similtaneous record and playback), it is NOT multi-client; that is, it is unable to be used by more than one app at a time.  So playing back in one program while recording in another would not work.

Is there a way to use the Windows sound mixer to "cheat" around this?

 While I use different hardware than you are, I have found that setting
 the wrong record source ( which MAY not be so intuitive ) will cause this.

 For instance, Audacity does this easily *if* the record input device is
 set to the "volume control" and NOT to the actual input device.
 If the selected input device is the actual input device ( say, line in )
 then it doesn't work at all.

 Just some thoughts from the peanut gallery..........

If we all work together, we can totally disrupt the system.
