Adam Easy Wishes Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 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.

Le Stu Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Try this: Go to the Control Panel, Sound and set your recording/line-in device to Stereo Mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Easy Wishes Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Thanks - but there's no option for that.That's with all hidden and disabled devices showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 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.

Frosty Jack Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Stu Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 I think, if you can't get drivers for your card that permit this, your best bet is NTONYX - VIrtual Audio Cable 4Unfortunately, it's $49 for the uncrippled version. I don't know if there are any freeware alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
