soundblaster live record what you hear

soundblaster live record what you hear
the record what you hear doesn't show in play control options
creative soundblaster live p3 800
why could it be it works on my other comp
which i don't use online so doesn't have latest updates,
i'm wondering if a windows update caused it
i have uninstalled reinstalled both with windows update
uninstalled reinstalled with creative software i got with the soundcard
everything works fine other than this minor inconvenience but
it bugs me so if anyone knows why please let me know thanks

bump anyone know what it could be

 

Hi Culla,

*Techguy's logged. I don't know if you'll be able to formulate any idea's from this, but here's a problem someone was having with audigy over on the creative forum's. If asking correctly, which audio device are you trying to send it through? Audio dev's driver? Are the connection type's identical for both pc's? Your os?

One more to check - Digital Output vs. Analog Output


GF

 

os = xp pro fully updated
soundblaster live installed with supplied disc
sound works fine recording my guitar line in
playback works fine
just no record what you hear anywhere
thanks globalforce but niether link has the answer

I would suggest, if you are trying to record, upgrading to professional audio cards. Sound Blaster just doesn't cut it for good quality recordings. M-Audio offers products from $80-$500, from usb to firewire. This combined with Cakewalk or many other progs, will get you studio quality recordings. Fruityloops, cubase, protools (the industry standard).
Not sure if that is the direction you wanted to go.
Try posting in Audio recording forums or SB forums if they have them.

 

Culla,

Go to Playback Control-Options-Properties.

Enable Recording and enable What U Hear-OK-.

Next window is Record Control-Select What You Hear

Hairy

 

i use protools hardware and software in the studio this is my browse the net computer which i sometimes record radio online [when i had record what you hear]

on this one i just record guitar ideas in cool edit pro

i know that and if it was there its what i'd do but it ain't

anyone sugest a good forum for this question and thanks for your help/time

 

When you reinstalled teh Creative drivers, did you use the ones from teh CD or did you download the latest from the site?

I suggest you try the latter.

 

just checked at creative update and i have latest drivers
