computer audio settings help plz

k so on my old laptop, when i went to the windows mixer, then went to recording, it had microphone, line in, and 'audio mix', which was essentially whatever was being played

so i could open up cooledit/audition and hit record to rip audio from a movie or something, simple as that
now i got a new laptop and haven't known how to do it, and there's seriously gotta be a way
anyone got any idea?

cor version: how do i make it so my recording input is whatever's being played on my computer?

well lets make it quick. why the fuck would you want to take a digital source, start playing, then capture it as ANALOG!? thats just dumb. do you want to rip the sound out of a video? theres applications to just take it out directly. no digital to analog to digital conversion.

just so you understand what im saying...its like taking a picture. printing it then scanning it back into the computer. why the hell would you do that when you have a digital copy?

i don't know which direction you're going here, but i think i might have a clue.

1. Double click your Volume icon.
2. Click "Options" and "Properties"
3. Click "Recording" under "Adjust Volume For"
4. Select which volume controls you want to use for recording.
5. Click "Ok"

is this it ?

igk version: plug a microphone into computer and record whats coming out of your speakers.

rofl might as well stick it up his ass too. it will be muffled enough as it is why not just make it that much worse.

I don't think he's talking about going from digital to analog and back. I know it's an option on some software where you can record what your audio card is receiving. Don't know what it is though.

With Creative sound cards, there is a 'what you hear' option to record with.

if thats the case then you would use a stream ripper.

That's what it is! Thanks. But yeah Ben, a stream ripper type deal would be the same thing.

where might i find such a thing?

Uhh...are you looking for a program that will rip the audio out of a movie or something that will record an audio stream?

Your search - prgfhbk - did not match any documents.

Suggestions:

* Make sure all words are spelled correctly.
* Try different keywords.
* Try more general keywords.

wtfh4x!

ehhh in between. like i don't want to rip the entire audio track off a movie, just bits and pieces here and there without taking the time to do the whole thing and then go through just the audio

idk it seems weird, but i used to be able to do it (had a creative soundcard). i don't reeeeeally need to, i could just rip the audio, which i know how to do, but i'd rather be able to just record whats playing. then that'll work for recording audio streams also

Ah well, Nut was saying that Creative soundcards have a feature that lets you "record what you're hearing". Could be why you've been able to do it before and not again. I don't know if there's a way to just grab bits and pieces. Ask Montana! He uses movie quotes in his chill out mixes.
