2. How to enable “stereo mix” in
window 7 (to record audio
• Ever need to record something on your computer exactly as it
comes out of your speakers? Enabling “Stereo Mix” will let you
do exactly that, and here’s how to do it.
• Nowadays, most sound cards have the ability to record whatever
is being output. The only hang-up is accessing that recording
channel, which can be done rather easily.

3. Enable stereo mix
• Go down to the audio icon in your system tray, right-
click it, and go to “Recording Devices” to open up the
proper settings pane.

4. Enable stereo mix
• In the pane, right-click on a blank area, and make sure
both “View Disabled Devices” and “View
Disconnected Devices” options are checked. You
should see a “Stereo Mix” option appear.

5. Enable stereo mix
• Right-click on “Stereo Mix” and click “Enable” to be
able to use it.

6. I still don’t see it…
• In some cases, your audio chipset drivers aren’t helping
your cause. Most likely, this is because they’re
outdated. In other instances, however, it’s because the
newest Windows 7 drivers don’t support this
feature. This was the case on my Asus Eee PC (a
1000HE), but I got around the issue by downloading
and installing the older Windows XP/Vista drivers for
my audio chipset. As always, before changing your
drivers, make sure create a system restore point in case
things don’t go as planned.

7. How do I use this?
• With “Stereo Mix” enabled, you can open up your favorite recording
program and select that instead of your microphone before you
record. If you don’t see the option, or your program doesn’t give you the
ability to change the recording device, you can disable or unplug your
microphone and make “Stereo Mix” the default recording device.

8. Finally
• This works well for when you want to capture audio
for a screen-sharing session, or record audio from
streaming sources – such as live web-casts – that don’t
necessarily allow you to download content
immediately.
