Error when recording with "What you hear" opt

Hi there fellow Creative Fans,
I see that a similar thread already exists for this topic, however it does not seem to be resolved yet...and, my situation is a bit different. I run a pretty standard setup (Intel P4 .6 Ghz, 52 MB RAM, Windows XP Pro SP2) and of course a Sound Blaster Audigy 2. I have been running this setup for approxiamately 5 months now with no changes whatsoever (hardware/software). I have been making extensi've use of the "What you hear" functionality in the Creative Media Go Player. Two nights ago, I wanted to record sound from a DVD and I got this message "The recording process was aborted".
As stated before, I have not added or removed hardware, installed service packs or any new software for that matter. I have reinstalled all the drivers and software, checked and re-checked settings. I have downloaded the latest drivers from Creative's site...all in vain.
Can anyone please help. If acker25 is reading this: "Have you resolved your problem yet?"
Regards
Steyn

Problem resolved. Follow Creatives FAQ advice on uninstalling the Soundblaster device drivers...it's on this web site. Follow all the steps, but include deleting "Creative" out of the registry. This worked for me. I can not guarantee this on any other users machines. I'm assuming that the drivers get's damaged.
Good luck.

Found the Secret of Recording with What You Hear.

This website tells you how to setup Vista so that What You Hear will work with your SoundBlaster Card. http://www.downloadsquad.com/2007/0/...ding-in-vista/. Do you see the date. Jan 5, 2007 how did this not get out before now. It works great.

Only problem is that I CAN'T get the 'Wave Out Mix' to show up in the Sound Recording Tab Window.

6Controling recording through "What you hear",

Dear community, Breif question, Is there any way to control what i record through "what you hear"?
Im using "Creative MediaSource 5" to record. I'm recording a radio show through Internet Explorer 8, and its two hours long. I've turned off windows sounds, but if i play a game, or video it will record that sound aswell through "what you hear", obviously which i do not want. I feel restricted on my computer while recording and don't think i should be with a product from top developer like creative. I found small fix by using windows 7's sound mixer and turning down volume on all other open apps but it would be ncie to implenet this into a seperate "what you hear" mixer recording. If you know of any third party apps i would be much obliged if not don't you think this would be something to implement in the future?
Thanks for taking the time to read my issue and hope you can solve my answer and look forward to your comments.

Soundcard with "what you hear" recording supp

Hello,
I'm looking for a soundcard with so called "what you hear" recording support under windows, so a possibility to record all audio going to speakers. Is there any model from creative supporting this feature, prefered an external model at USB/Firewire or internal with PCIe?
TIA for advice

Where abouts is this located? I can only see "Microphone, Line in, CD Player, Video, AUX, Stereo Mix, Mono Mix"
Which card/software you got there?
If you use "Creative Surround Mixer" --> you can set the .REC source by pressing the icon located above recording level slider.
If you can't see the "W-U-H" option listed there, then check if it's already selected (ear icon).

Creative X-Fi recorder from "what you hear" and splitting tra

Hi,
I used to be able to record minutes of music or sound and be able to split this saved file with the splitting option of Smart Recorder. I now have installed a new sound card X-Fi and want to do the same but cannot find where I need to look. Does this new software for X-Fi offer that or not anymore?
thanks,
Luke

I have the software from the CD installed, as I stated earlier, the "What You Hear" option is only missing if you do a CLEAN install of the drivers from the Windows Update. That is?to say if you install the drivers from Microsoft's website with no other X-Fi driver installed on your system.
If you installed the update over a previous version of the drivers, then the "What You Hear" option remains available.
I checked this three times by doing a clean install from the Windows Update and then installing the other driver from Creative?s website.
All three times I deleted the X-Fi driver from my system, then installed the one directly from the Windows Update. I would check my record settings and could not find the "What You Hear" option. I would then install the driver from Creative?s website and checked the settings again and the ?What You Hear? option was available.
If you just installed the Windows Update driver over the one previously on your system without first deleting it, then yes, you should have the "What You Hear" option.
I also could not get the "What You Hear" recording option in any software application that previously had it (ie, Adobe Audition, Sony Sound Forge) until I installed the driver form the Creative website.

Creative Audigy 2 Platinum with WHAT YOU HEAR & MICROPHONE shows "Currently Unavailable"

I re-used my Creative Audigy2 Platinum for my new built PC used on Window7 64. Somehow, the latest Creative Sound Blaster Audigy series driver 2.18.0017 "SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_18_0017.exe" on Creative Website (http://support.creative.com/Products...rodName=Audigy 2 Platinum&subCatName=Audigy&CatName=Sound+Blaster&V ARSET=prodfaq:PRODFAQ_150,VARSET=CategoryID:1 )for my old Audigy2 Platinum has some kinds of "bug" problem. It keeps disconnecting my internet access. Also, both "What You Hear" & "Microphone" in Recording show as "Currently Unavailable". And with that, the microphone and music does play fine on speakers or headphones, but I could not use its for talk live through the internet (i.e. PALTALK) or mixing music.
Please help and Thanks a lot!!

What you hear recording sounds like Phase Shifter!

Hi, when I record with "What you hear (from youtube, etc.) it sounds like it came through a phase shifter: real bad. I have a dell xps 420 with Vista 32 bit and it'scame bundled with?creator premiere, adobe soundbooth, etc. Intel core tm2 quad cpu, 2.66 Ghz, memory 4GB
it seems to record ok with line in and mic. Can someone please help?

Actually, there's discussion about this all over the Internet.
The problem is your move to Vista and Windows 7
Under pressure from the record companies, the ability to record the Stereo Mix output of you computer has been disabled or removed from many new computers.
You may be lucky and find it's only been disabled on your machine. If so, then do the following:
To enable:
->> go to Control Panel
->> Hardware and Sound
->> Manage Audio devices
->> in the Recording tab window right click in the white area away from any devices and from the menu enable "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show disconnected devices"
->> right click on Stereo Mix to get the properties window and in Device usage "Use this device (enable)"
However, there have been many reports in here (you can do a search) that some computer manufacturers are actually removing this ability entirely, again under pressure from the record companies.
This being the case, you might try some software called Virtual Audio Cable: http://software.muzychenko.net/eng/vac.htm
You have to pay for it but at least there's a trial version so you can see if it works for you before laying out your money.

"What you hear" recording volume is too

I have Soundblaster Audigy 2 on Vista 64-bit. I recently downloaded new drivers (6.0..242). This is after converting from XP and old drivers.
My "What you hear" settings work and will record using MediaSource Player, but the volume on the recorded file is about 25% the volume of the original file. This is verified upon replaying both the original and newly-recorded files side-by-side or right after one another.
When opening the Sound Panel>Recording Devices>"What You Hear">Levels, the levels are to the max and the balance is to the max for both right and left channels.
Although probably irrelevent, under Sound Panel>Playback Devices>Speakers>Levels, play control levels are max, and all other sublevels are?maxed, balanced maxed, and unmuted. (Sorry for my lack of technical description.)
I play the file on Windows Media Player and volume is maxed on the player as well. The interesting thing is when you look in the Sound Panel, the speakers show maxed volume and the "What you hear" only shows, again 25% of the volume.
Previously, I had no problems with XP and old drivers. I also was once able to revert to old drivers (which I can no longer do) and the problem went away. The difference was that the old drivers had a "Wav" level setting (under Sound Panel>Playback Devices>Speakers>Levels) where you could increase the level. These drivers don't appear to provide this setting.
Is there some setting I'm missing? Any help would be great. Thanks!

Not knowing your complete operating enviroment...one suggestion is to make sure you disable audio in bios if you have an embedded audio chip on your motherboard.

Missing "What You hear" on X-Fi Titanium

Hi,
at first, sorry for my bad english, but without practice, its not easy
Last week I bought an brand new Creative Soundblaster X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Professional. I?m using Vista Ultimate x64 an the drivers from the original CD (Driver version 2.7.).
On my old X-Fi Extreme Music, I had a recording Device which was called "What you hear" (or "What U hear" , the original german description is "Was Sie h?ren"). It has the same function like "Stereomix" on other soundcards.
I miss this recording device on my new X-Fi Titanium, there is only the microphone, the line in and the digital in. Is this feature not longer Part of the Productline? I think it was verry useful.
Is there any chance to enable "What you hear" on the new X-Fi Soundcards? I reinstalled the driver finally, but this was not the solution^^
Again, sry for my bad english, but may, somebody can help me.
Best regards
DarkRhinon

Also, do you think the recording of "What You Hear"?would still be possible?through on-board sound chipset?
Hm, my onboard Sound (its called ASUS SupremeFX X-Fi, but its only a Analog Devices Chip with some X-Fi software feature)? already have the "Stereomix". Hm... I will miss the "What U hear" on the X-Fi, imho its a not a good decision to remove this feature. Its also a bit mindless, because it looks like that other manufacturer still use this feature and intigrate it in their soundcards...:smileyindifferent:

Does "What You Hear" work in Windows Vis

Does record?"What You Hear" work in Windows Vista?

It works (in 32 bit anyway), but not that well by my experience. I only have the windows sound recorder to use, and the sound it captures distorts slightly. I ususally use the Creative WaveStudio for recording, so I'm not doing much recording while I wait for a Vista version to be released.

Audigy board is recording in mono when using "what you hear" or "wave" m

I have an Audigy SB394 EAX HD Sound card, Model SB0090. I've installed the latest drivers with XP Pro, and the card runs just fine for games and such. However, when I try to record with it using "Wave" or "What You Hear" mode, it comes out sounding like it's in mono mode. My sound and music is not playing in mono, so why would it be recording that way?Message Edited by vonshep on 02-26-200805:42 PM

NI'll give them a try and post back here with the results - am I correct in assuming the driver pack you speak of is located here? If so, another post by daniel says specifically that his pack doesn't enable the feature, but I'm going to try anyway.
EDIT: Nope, no luck, didn't enable the feature.

Windows7 64 bit and Audigy 2 choppy sound while recording what you hear

Driver version I have currently installed 6.0..37 I tried to record off youtube in "What You hear" while using Wavelab5 mode and the sound is very choppy, I tried every setting I could think of but am unable to record, I managed to get one recording but tnext one with same settings is coming up rearry choppy. Another problem when browsing the support I click on "If your product is not listed above, please click here" I choose Audigy-->Audigy2 but I get nothing in the next window, I tried on FF and IE8 but nothing populates in the next field, found another way to get to the drivers but when I choose Windows 7 64 bit and choose drivers it takes me to the main support page here <a rel="nofollow" href="http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx"]http://support.creative.com/welcome.aspx[/url]
I am on:
Intel Q2600
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6
2 x 2GB DDR2 - 800 CL4 Ballistix
Windows7 Ultimate 64 bit
Kaspersky Internet Security 200.
All current Windows7 updates are installed.
Oh yeah I can hear music (mp3, avi, youtube or any online source) no problem in either winamp, WMP2 or in Wavelab5 while monitoring. It's only the recording that is giving me trouble.
Cheers

<div class="DownloadDate">"Release date : 3 Jul 09<div class="DownloadShortDesc">This?download is a?driver providing Microsoft? Windows?7, Windows Vista? and Windows XP support for Creative Sound Blaster? Audigy? series of audio devices. For more details, read the rest of this web release note."?
Right where do I start...... I got the latest drivers installed, "What You Hear" was working for about oh four recordings then stopped and back to choppy recorded sound, I went through alll options and nada. So I downloaded Audacity to see if this was a problem with Wavelab and re-tried. Well same thing choppy sound and even rebooting did not help. So I will be taking EVERYTHING!!!!!! CREATIVE off my machine, if these idiots cannot be bothered to release drivers that work then I'm going elsewhere. My music creating will have to be put on hold, my 22m will still have to sit in it's box.
Creative you are all a bunch of ?$"?%$%" idiots period. You have ALWAYS (till now in my case anyway) had good drivers. Even though Windows 7 has been in RC for ages you (absolutely missed that boat, hell you didn't even get up to try to catch it) cannot be bothered to write drivers that work and your idiotic half cooked attempts at customer service to give your bread and butter (that's right your customers who keep you in business) solid drivers are an absolute joke. YOU CAN KISS MY SHINY METAL HINEY!!!!! (thanks Bender lol). I am going to my onboard drivers. Thanks Creative (the name "creative" is kind of contradiction in itself, you should look up the meaning of the word lol). Oh and I will be advising EVERYONe who thinks of upgrading to Windows7 to avoid Creative hardware.

Question for forum users: what is the best way to get rid of every bit of drivers?

"Stereo mix" or record what you hear... Soundblaster u

Installation...easy
sound ...excellent
Does it record what it hears..YES!
thank you soundblaster.

Audio Recording "What you Hear" not available!

I have recently assembled my system with MSI-X58-PRO-E. And installed Windows 7.
When I tried to record audio that is playing on my system, the "What you Hear" option could not be selected in Audacity. Or any other recording software.
Is this because of Realtek drivers? Could this be solved by installing new drivers, or I have to buy a discrete sound card?!?!!!
Any help is appreciated...

thanks for suggestion, will try it and post thje results soon.
