Recording whilst monitoring other tracks

[Paul881]

Okay, this is ultra embaressing newbie question #1

So, summer is now over, the rain is falling...time for music

And now I have a cool super quiet, super powerful puter, win xp, delta 66 +omni, using wdm/ks drivers, the ASUS sound card is inhibited (so no windows mixer to mess with, no little yellow speaker icon) and the delta records and plays back fine.

Problem is, I want to record on a new track without recording the previous tracks...and I don't seem to be able to do it. In the windows mixer, that used to catch loads of peeps out and then we simply disabled the "what U hear"...which I can't do because i have disabled the Mobo on-board sound card in favour of the delta 66.

Any suggestions?

Are you using the Delta's monitor mixer as your recording source? that would cause something like that.

No, I have tried all the inputs; Delta multi 1/2; stereo, left or right. Same result.

Hmmm...I have just noticed that there is a problem with one of my Audio and sound devices..it has a question mark and an ! against it in the System Devices list.. I have now disabled it and everything now seems to work okay.

Just tested it again and this seems to have fixed the problem.
