I do production work for an internet radio network, and often have to pull
audio from a video clip to incorporate into a promo, sweeper, etc. In XP I
would simply set my recording device to "Stereo Mix" or "Mono Mix" and it
would record any audio sent tot he speakers. Is there a way to set this in
Vista cause I only get two options "Microphone" and "Line Input"

A big oversight by MS and one of the (many) reasons I've decided to revert
to XP!

i was wondering about this as well.

anyone know of a future "fix" for this? or a way around it? (other than a
3.5mm stereo to stereo cable)

Got to control panel, select classic and click on sounds, click on the
recording tab and right mouse button click anywhere in the white panel, put
a check mark in "show disabled devices " Stereo mix is disabled as a
default, just re-enable it and you're good to go.

Thanks Vista...

Your current audio hardware may not support it. By default it should be
visible but grayed out. (disabled) Screen cap shot

Pete

Your first source should be the I Sound website to check for Vista
compatibility updates. There may be some known issues with that product that
they would be aware of.

I have a Dell Dimension 9200 with Vista Home Premium and a Sigmatel
integrated audio module.

I am mad with frustration about this lack of audio functions. I feel
betrayed and defrauded. I spent hours talking with support technicians at
Dell's. Even more hours reading countless posts on hundreds of forums.

The solution given up here does not work on my system. My version of Vista
is French.
The two boxes are checked but nowhere can I see a Stereo Mix option (even
grayed).

From the beginning I find misunderstanding. It looks like if the technicians
at Dell's never heard about recording an internal audio signal. Finally they
referred me to Microsoft where I was returned to Dell unless I accept to pay
a 79 $ an hour fee for help (without any promises that my problem would be
solved).

Who could imagine that one could buy a computer in 2007 with the latest
technology and that this computer would be "crippled" compared to an older
one? Stereo mix (or waveout) is a function I have for years on all my
computers whatever the OS or the sound card. I think that Dell should at
least put it clear on their advertisements that their new computers are
lacking these important functions.

On the contrary, they seem to play innocence and put on me the burden of
having bought a computer without asking all the questions. When you buy a
car, would you ask if it comes with a brake pedal?

Right now it would help me to know who is to blame for this mess. (Yes this
is a huge mess. Just Google "vista waveout" and you will see thousands of
desperate users)

Is it Vista? Is it the manufacturer (Dell, Sony, Gateway)? Or is it Sigmatel
(the audio module)?

And what is the reason for all this? It looks too big to be only a mild
omission. Is it possible that it is related with DMR and the copyright phobia
in which the music recording industry seems to have fallen?

Pierre Cloutier
Montreal

WOW PIERRE!!!!!!

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT!!!!!
I HAVE SIGMATEL TOO, I HAVE CONTACT THEM AND MICROSOFT AND EVEN GATEWAY.
SPENT HOURS IN TOTALITY JUST TO FIND HOW THE HECK TO ENABLE STEREO MIX OPTION
- WELL JUST AS YOU SAID, WHY IN 2007 WITH HIGH TECH AND EVERYTHING SOME CARDS
ARE LACK OF STEREO OPTIONS, CAUSE THE PROBLEM IS NOT VISTA ITSELF, BUT THE
COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER SOUND CARDS.

EVEN THOU SOME PEOPLE HERE WERE ABLE TO ENABLE THIS OPTION, CONGRATULATIONS
BY THE WAY, WE WHO HAVE SPENT $$$$ ON NEW PC WITH THE SOUND CARD SIGMATEL
HAVE TO SIT AND SUFFER.

ANNNNDDDDDDDDDD YES!!! SOME COPYRIGHTS ISSUES ARE ALSO INVOLVED - THEY KNOW
WE CAN RECEORD AUDIO FROM LIVE RADIO AND REEORD ANY LIVE CONCERT OR ANY PHONE
LINE CONVERSATION OR WHATEVER IS GOING THROUGH YOUR PC. THEY ARE LIMITING US
TO MAKE US SPEND MORE AND MORE $$$$$ EVEN THOUGH I ALREADY SPENT $860 ON A
BRAND NEW T5226 DESKTOP PC WITH VISTA PREMIUM, INTEL VIDEO CARD, PENTIUM D
925 DUAL CORE 3.GHZ, 1 GIGARAM, WHICH WINDOWS WHEN BOOTED ALREADY CONSUMES
MORE THAN 512, AND WITH THE ANTIVIURS AND OTHER DEFAULT RUNNING PROGRAMS,
WHEN MY COMPUTER IS IDLE, ALREADY IS CONSUMING MORE THAN 70% OF RAM MEMORY -
THIS SUCKSSSs!!!!!!!!!!!

SO ALL THIS IS A WAY OF CONTROL - IF YOU WANT SOME FEATURES YOU HAVE TO
$$$$$$$$$ PAAYYYYYYYY MORE AND MORE, AND THEY MAKE HOW MUCH, 10 MILLION
DOLARS A DAY , SHT!!!!!!!!!

WITHOUT THESE OPTIONS I CANT RECORD ANY VIDEO SHOW WITH AUDIO ON A SREAM
PLAYER, COME ON MICROSOFT - COMPATIBILITY ISSUES? COME ON!!!!!!!!

AAHAA YEAH RIGHT!, MMJUMM
