| 1134594 | 2010-09-04 01:49:00 | I use a computer to record audio input (via line in) and also use the computer to output from a media player etc. However for some reason everything that goes in via line in is output as well, so I can't have any input while I'm outputting (even if I don't record the input). Is there any way to stop whatever is being input from also being output at the same time?? Sound is on-board if that makes any difference? Mike. |

| 1134595 | 2010-09-04 01:51:00 | Or is there a fault with the soundcard in the computer so that it's outputting whatever is input? Mike. |

What software are you using for recording? | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

You should be able to mute your output (separate from the input), if you right-click your speaker icon on the righthand end of your taskbar. Running Windows XP (Pro I think) I don't want to mute my output, I just want to stop the input also being output (so anything else should still be output)... is that possible? Mike. |

What software are you using for recording? Using Audacity for recording. The recording doesn't seem to be the issue - I have the same issue if I have nothing running... any sound input is also output. Mike. |

| 1134600 | 2010-09-04 03:15:00 | That might mean an issue with Audacity's mixer. Have you checked it? Sometimes it's greyed out for the selections, depending on sound card driver/operating system (I recall a similar issue a while back). Try going to preferences in Audacity - Audio I/O tab to select input sources in the drop down menu. Then select input sources - to see if that prevents all sound inputs transferring to output. Also what sort of unit are you recording from? Is it USB connected to the same PC? e.g. the TT 1100 turntable?) |

Sometimes it's greyed out for the selections, depending on sound card driver/operating system I'll have a look, but as I say, it happens with nothing open (including audacity) Also what sort of unit are you recording from? Is it USB connected to the same PC? e.g. the TT 1100 turntable?)Line in and Line/Speaker out via sound plugs on the back of PC. It's connected to sound mixer desk. Mike. |

I'll have a look for that, I've been through most of those and don't recall seeing a line-in control in the output settings... but I'll look again. Mike. |
