Thanks tony, I appreciate the help.
Let me check and see if I have the stereo mix option.

Jim,
You have a couple of options.
First, and the easiest. If your soundcard offers a recording source of “What
you hear”, “stereo mix” or the like, you can turn your microphone on so it is
heard through your headphones and simply select the stereo mix as your
recording source. This will pass *all* audio from your soundcard through to
your recording.
If this is not an option, you can use a program like Virtual Audio Cable
(http://software.muzychenko.net/eng/vac.htm). This will allow you to emulate
the stereo mix function by “patching” different audio sources into a virtual
cable and using the VAC as the source for the recording. In your situation you
would have to:
· Create a Virtual Audio Cable
· Create a repeater to send the output of the VAC to your speakers
· Send the JAWS output to a VAC
· Create a repeater to send your Mic input to the VAC
· Tell Audacity to record from the VAC
The difference between the VAC and a repeater is that the repeater “clones”
sources that cannot specifically be directed elsewhere. Since there is no way
to control where the mic input goes, you would have to “repeat” it onto the VAC.
The third option is to use an external mixer. Connect both a microphone and the
output from your computer to the board, mix your levels, and send the output
back to a line-in (or direct USB if your board supports it). My Mackey has a
direct USB connection that allows for either pass-through or non-passthrough
audio. If I activate the pass-through switch, any sounds coming through the USB
port into the board are also sent back out as part of the recording. This
allows the recording and monitoring of JAWS simultaneously, while actually
allowing me to silence JAWS on the recording, but still monitor through the
mixer if I don’t want *everything* recorded.
I would experiment with the VAC solution if you don’t want to invest in
external gear. Use the trial of the software and make sure it will meet your
needs. Once you purchase it, the “demo” sound that is inserted every few
seconds into the VAC will disappear.
Hope this helps. Please feel free to ask if you have additional questions.
Tony

I am a beginner in the art of recording audio.
How do you record your voice and also Jaws voice with audacity?
I have successfully recorded my voice, I would like to record the jaws voice
with me.
Thank you for any help ahead of time...
