Umm, Art is a brand. Here is a device I've used in the past:

Of course a real mixer gives you all kinds of flexibility but the cost starts going up.

How are you concurrently connecting the mic and the reader to record? Are you 
using a mixer or a dual-input preamp? If it were me I'd do it with something 
like the ART USB DualPre. Mic goes in one input, Reader goes in the other and 
then record just from the USB audio device. No voiceover will ever get into the 
audio stream being recorded.

Hi:
I'm trying to record myself speaking, and the sound output from a Victor Reader 
Stream. I have a MBP 2010. I do have an Oak external mike that will go in the 
mike jack on my MBP. I do not want to hear VO because this needs to sound 
professional. Thanks for the assistance.

Hi Sarai,

I'm not sure what you're trying to record or what your Mac configuration is (Mac Mini or 
laptop Mac, available USB ports, line-in, etc.).    Are you saying that you're using your 
line-in to connect the input sound device to your computer, so you don't have a way to 
independently monitor the sound level coming in with your headphones?   You can use a 
Griffin iMic to let you plug your input or output audio source into the iMic and connect 
to your Mac through a USB port.  These run for about $25 at Amazon, and mine dates from 
when I got my first Mac and wanted to digitize old cassette tapes, so it's about 8 years 
old and still works. I used the iMic with Amadeus Pro to record. You could also put a 
Y-connector on your audio source so you can hook in headphones that way.  There's also a 
very convenient free program, named "LineIn", that you can download from the 
Rogue Amoeba freebies page:
http://rogueamoeba.com/freebies/

You can use this app to direct the sound output that you've plugged into your line-in to 
your Mac's speakers.  Most recording and editing programs have a pass-through feature for 
this kind of monitoring, but this function is not built into the Mac's audio system by 
default.  Select Input from Built-In Line In and send Output to Default System Output.  
Then VO-Space on the "pass-thru" checkbox.

If you are using Audio Hijack Pro for multiple sources, you generally first 
hijack system audio, and then individual applications.  If you want to hijack 
the system audio without VoiceOver, you'll have to mute VO.  As Teresa says, I 
don't think you can leave VoiceOver out of the system audio recordings.

Here's another suggestion. Many of the questions you are asking came up when 
Anna Dresner joined the list for a brief time four years ago.  She wanted to 
make a teaching podcast using Audio Hijack Pro, although she actually both 
wanted to have a demo of an iPod device, and record with VoiceOver.  Use the 
Mail Archive web search for this list.  I'll point you to one of the archived 
posts I gave her in reply, pointing her to an old podcast about using Audio 
Hijack Pro:
• Re: creating a teaching podcast
http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg06213.html

In addition to reading that page for content, navigate to the search text box 
and type in:
from:Woody hijack
and press return.  There are less than a dozen results.  (She posted as "Woody Anna 
Dresner", so I used the first word as the argument for the "from:" search keyword, 
which has a colon immediately after the word. You can use any word in the posting name to search by 
the poster, or the full name if you put the entire name in quotation marks, but it's best to choose 
a word that gives unique results.)

Activate the links with the various post subjects to read the full posts, then 
read up or down the threads with Control-N or Control-P.  You'll get most of 
the questions she asked and the responses on topics like how best to stop the 
recording, and was there any way to get rid of the 30 second delay in listening 
to combined hijacked tracks.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Unfortunantly, VO gets recorded. Unless I can edit out VO from the background.

As far as I'm aware, an application will not be recorded unless you 
specifically choose it. As for recording system audio without VO, I'm not sure 
if that's possible, as I haven't done it. I mostly record radio programs, so I 
use application sources. You can specify several of them in one session, but 
unless you choose VO, it won't be recorded, as far as I'm aware.

HtH,
Teresa

I need to record the device and I don't want to hear VO in the recordings. I'm 
new to this, if you can't tell. LOL.

Hi,

I don't understand.  Why would the need to record audio from another device 
prevent you from using headphones?

Hi:
I need to figure out how to stop AHP from picking up Voiceover. I cannot use 
headphones b/c I need to record the sound from another device. Any tips?
