No sound

[jasonjxsoon]

This worked for me before but I messed it up.
I used to be able to record the sound coming from my computer and play it to my microphone right away as it goes.
Meaning when I record something, it would record whatever is playing on the computer.
But I forgot how to make that setting.
Any tips?
I really need this fixed

thanks

You just need to change the default audio device go into control panel>sound>recording and right click on the Stereo mix and set to default device if you want to record sound from your screen or select microphone if you want to record voice

 

[jasonjxsoon]

wow you just fixed a week of frustration.
i checked it before but it din't seem too work.
I love you man. keeping this thread in case the problem pops up and i forgot.

 

[jasonjxsoon]

but i have one more problem.
The recording volume is too low.
even though it looks very high in the vertical green activity box. it isint loud =/

Hi,
I'm not really to sure about that one..
Mine is quite too.
Does turning up the speakers to full make a difference??

 

[jasonjxsoon]

already did. still having problems.
I have really good bass, but i turned it off.
still no. bleh.

 

[Fastboy42]

What program are you using to record??
could you possibly give me an idea on what your trying to do.

 

[jasonjxsoon]

im not recording anything,
im just using it as my microphone to play something
or just using my sound recorder on the computer.
it isint playing loud at all. =/

 

[jasonjxsoon]

Help!?!?!

 

[Fastboy42]

I'm Really not sure how to fix it. Why do you need to listen to whats on your computer using the microphone rather than just using the speakers?:D

 

[jasonjxsoon]

lol nah,
im just trying to play a song to my friend through msn
the sound can barely be heard .
Is there a way to use stereo mix on msn?

 

[Fastboy42]

Keep your Microphone set as Stereo Mix Then go into Messenger and click tools>Audio and Video Setup> Then Drag the microphone meter right up>Click Finish.
(If you cant see tools and stuff press F-10)

Hope that works

 

[jasonjxsoon]

Can you be more specific with that "meter"?

 

[jasonjxsoon]

oh u mean the lvl of volume?
nope, that doesnt work.

 

[Fastboy42]

Why dont you just send your friend the song?

I just think that the sound can only record at a low volume.

 

[jasonjxsoon]

Oh Ok

I really have no Idea .

You may want to have a look at this though:
How to boost the mic volume on your Realtek audio codec

It may or may not work for you.

I had another look on the net and can't find any solution.
Sorry.
