How about a "Y" connector if you can't get this to work through your audio
mixer?

Hi David, I got a somewhat confusing answer, but I am also told that there
is a lot of latency when using this software. That may not matter because
most of the time I will be recording someone else reading, so it doesn't
matter if they are a bit behind. I have a reading this Thursday which is
very critical which is why I wanted to use this or something like it. I
don't have a lot of time to spend on getting it up and running, but I do
have some, so if you have any helpful clues that will give me a head start,
that would be very appreciated.

 

Thanks much for writing.

 

Neal

Hi mate,

 

Did you get your answer regarding how to set up Virtual Cables to do what
you wanted? VC is a bloody useful piece of software for sure.

Rob, I can monitor my sound with no delay in both Sonar and Sound Forge. I
don't know how they do it, but there is definitely no delay.

Neal,

 

I suspect that most programs don't allow this. In any case, anything we
might do would introduce a long delay between the recorded signal and the
played back signal.

 

I don't know anything about your setup besides what you have stated here.
Looks like you are using a Mackie mixer with Firewire. So, if you plug your
headphones into the mixer, I am missing why you can't monitor what your are
recording and hear JAWS at the same time. (I am assuming your mixer is
basically a PC audio device.)

Rob, this is one of the very few things I miss in SR. It may actually be the
only thing. I do wish there was a way to hear what you are recording as you
record through headphones. As it is, I have to plug my headphones into my
mixer to monitor the sound of my voice, then I insert a tiny ear plug under
the headphones to hear JAWS. This is quite cumbersome. I would use Sound
Forge which does allow monitoring of the incoming signal, but it is much
easier to keep up with all the things I need to know while recording when
using SR. I have read the section on monitoring and I don't believe there is
any way for me to do this there. In addition I go into my computer via
firewire. There is a way I can possibly do this in my Mackie mixer, but it
means changing a lot of things around each time I record something with
speech.

 

Any clues how I can do this? Possibly I cannot. If not, is this something
you would consider?

 

Neal
