Yep I get the echo in the headset; very annoying. Apparently it's not possible
to do this without hearing yourself in your headset. I think wiretap might do
this better but I can't figure out how to use wiretap.

Dennis,
After reading a few other posts on here, I finally figured out what you were
driving at. Basically, I needed to create two sessions in AH Pro - one for my
headset, and one for system audio. Then I needed to hijack both sessions, but
record in the System Audio session.
This achieved the results I was after, however, I encountered two annoyances:
First, there's about a half-second delay between when I speak, and when I
actually hear my voice through the headset, which is having a tendency to slow
down my speaking, as I'm waiting to hear myself! Second, I'm hearing a little
bit of "Audio Ghosting", if you will. That is, I'm not only hearing what Alex
is saying, but I'm actually hearing him echoed back to me, faintly. It's
almost as though the sound in my earpieces is being transmitted down the boom,
into my mic. Believe it, or not, in System Prefs, under Sound, I have the
input level for my headset, set to zero!
I downloaded Wiretap Studio, earlier this afternoon, but as yet, haven't
really done any recording with it. Right now, I'm just familiarizing myself
with the program. Unfortunately, at this time, $69 is a little too rich for my
blood! If, however, in the future I'm able to afford it, would this program
eliminate these annoyances?
Thanks to everyone who posted on this topic, and finally got it through my
thick skull how to do this in AH Pro! <grin!>
Regards,
Ron

Sara,
How, exactly, did you accomplish this with AH Pro? I'm currently using a
Plantronics USB headset, and can't quite figure out how to get things so I get
Alex, and my own voice, in the same file, and at the same volume. I'm able to
hear my own voice, just fine, but Alex is at a really low volume - almost as
though he's being picked up from the headset, by the boom mic.
Thanks!
Ron

Hijack system audio first, then the mic, and then go back to system
audio and only record system audio.
My file sounded like one file with a mic and an Alex. smile

OK guys, here it goes. Basicly: In my list of inputs I can select
from in audio inputs, I see sound flower 2ch, but then I also see soundflower
1/16CH. What is the difference. Secondly, I understand now that you can't
start all sources recording at the same time, but, it I start them seperatly,
here's the thing. if I high jack my mike, then high jack my system audio,
that's fine, but, what happens when I hit record on these. Isn't it then gonna
make two totally seperet files? One for each seperet session? Somehjow we
need to combine my speech session and my mike session into one so when I hit
record, it shows it as one file with both sessions being recorded. Even if
they're not recorded at the same time, that's fine, I just don't wanna have my
voice in one file, and voice over in another.
Chris.
