Default Urgent Audacity Help

Is there a way in Audacity that I can record the output of my laptop? I basically want to record what would be coming out my speakers but not sound-out-speakers-back-in-through-microphone.

I haven't explained very well but I'm sure anyone that is able to help will understand what I mean.

Thank you in advance.

Try this: Go to the Control Panel, Sound and set your recording/line-in device to Stereo Mix.

Thanks - but there's no option for that.



That's with all hidden and disabled devices showing.

Damn. Well, I found this page which may or may not help you:
No "Stereo Mix" recording option - Here are Few Solutions | Nihar's World

*Looks like there's a solution for Sigmatel audio on Dell laptops at least.

Gave it a go but the link is out-dated. Thanks a lot though.

Would normally do this but don't have one handy as my box o' cables is at my Ma's house.

Cheers anyway.

Probably nothing you don't know already but this seems to be the relevant help page on the Audacity forums -
Windows Vista OS - Audacity Wiki

I think, if you can't get drivers for your card that permit this, your best bet is NTONYX - VIrtual Audio Cable 4

Unfortunately, it's $49 for the uncrippled version. I don't know if there are any freeware alternatives.
