Audio mixer bs
Ok, in all versions of Windows prior to Vista I could open the mixer and
turn on audio input so that the sound coming from my stereo via a line out was heard in my pc speakers after taking caution adjusting the proper input level. How the **** you do this in Vista. Damn mixer is basically ****ing useless!!! I can just imagine it gets even more obscene in Win7 as they continue to try and lock down/out media. As it is I keep a virtual XP under Vista just to be able to convert DVD's to avi files in the format I choose. Looks like I have to consider keeping parts etc. for one pc to never be upgraded past XP just to insure one can still do what one was always able to do. One should not have to open some recording software nor should one have to depend upon some utility provided by the sound card manufacturer just to provide this basic functionality that always existed before. Same thing with CD/DVD players. At one time they had buttons on them to start/stop audio etc. Meant could put a cd in and press the play button and without needing any software but just "turn on" "cd-in" in the mixer and you could hear the sound without any hit on the pc at all. Now, try to find a drive does that!!! |
