Ya, somehow I bumbled around and got it done. Even found an advanced button
for the microphone.
Now it is working perfectly well for sound on sound.

In this case when you set your volume in stereo mix you will need to set
the playback volume for your mike not the record volume.

So, does this mean Hannah can only have one or the other enabled? She was
asking if I can hear her JAWS on her Skype and I said no and I told her
that
her sound card has a stereo mix option but isn't enabled. She's happy
with
that really but was just curious.

I found another problem. I am using the RealTek onboard card on this
machine. Evidently it will not allow the mic and the Sterio Mix to be
set.
The sliders are not there no matter what you do as far as I can tell. I
read
a blurb from RealTek saying something to the effect that they do not
allow
for setting these inputs independently. The mic volume is just too low
even
though the Sound on Sound technique works - sigh it's always something.
So,
I might see what I have on my other computer. I think I am running an
older
Sound Blaster and perhaps I can get that puppy running so I can set the
Mix
and mic volumes independently. I am guessing that no matter what I try I
will not be able to set these independently on this machine since it is
the
sound card that will not allow this. Perhaps something like Total
Recorder
with it's use of a software interface but I am not at all sure about that
either. Oh well, it is what it is I guess. At least it works and that is
a
start.

yes, this will work if you have stereo mix or what you hear. the
shortcut
for mix is control m. the mix also has a feature that will allow you to
raise or lower the volume of the file being mixed into the foundation
track.

Hi: There seems much interest in multi-track recording. To avoid the
hassle of the complex multi-track recorders it might be possible to
just
use GoldWave. The technique is one we use to use with old Reel to Reel
recorders. Play the backing sound and record at the same time. Here is
an
article on how to record vocals while listening to another music file,
a
backing track in my case. I will be trying it out either today or
tomorrow. I need to have someone plug in the mic and be around for
sighted help if I get stuck.
If you try it or have tried it could you let me know?
BeginArticle:
How do I record vocals over background music or record and play at the
same time?
To record and play at the same time, such as playing music and
recording
vocals,
you need to use two files as follows:
1. Open the music file.
2. Create a new file for recording the vocals with a length at least a
few second longer
than the music file.
3. Select the correct
recording source
. If your sound card has a "Stereo Mix" or "What U Hear" or similar
source that records
whatever you hear on your computer speakers/headphones, select that
source. That
will allow you to record both the music and the vocals at the same
time.
If not,
select the microphone source for the vocals.
Tip:
Use headphones to prevent echo and feedback caused by the microphone
picking up
output from speakers.
4. Start recording by clicking the red button (or press Ctrl+F9).
5. Click the mouse on the window containing the music and start
playback
(press F4).
You are now playing and recording at the same time.
6. If your sound card had a "Stereo Mix" source, you are done. The
window
used for recording
should contain a mix of both.
7. If you used the microphone recording source, you will need to copy
the
music and
mix it with the recording after recording is finished, as explained in
the next few
steps.
8. Use Edit | Copy to copy the music.
9. Click on the window containing the recording, then use Edit | Mix.
10. Adjust the start time and use the preview button to align the
audio.
11. Choose OK to mix the music.
EndArticle:
Note that I dfind Media Player to sound a little nicer so I will try
playing the backing file in media player, opening a new recording file
and using the output from Media Player, through the speakers, and use
the
input from the mic to record my guitar over the backing track playing
in
Media Player.
Again, if you have tried this please let me know so I can either go or
not go getting sighted help to try it out and see if there is anything
that does not speak properly using Windoweyes.
