Hi guys,

i am testing the Audition cc2018 butr i cannot get it te record System sounds.

i have a win 10 machine and the Stereo mixer was downloaded and installed.

But i cannot set this as an Input in Multi track sessions combined with the Presonus AudioBox USB 96 I have also installed.

I tried MME, ASIO and Wasapi.

Would somebody please be so Kind and assist me with thiss issue?

My Goal is to produce a Podcast where there is a seperate track for me and basically System Audio as most interviews will be done via Skype.

Please find also Screenshots attached. Allthough they are in german, i think you guys know what this is about

Thanks for your help in advance

    You can't easily combine two different audio sources within Windows. And that means that Audition (and most other DAWs) can only see and use one audio device at any one time. Some USB interfaces do allow you to combine the system audio playback with it's own audio sources in a provided software mixer app. But I don't think that Presonus provide one with the Audiobox.

    However you should be able to do what you want within Skype itself as, I believe, you can configure it or use a third party app to allow this. I don't do 'podcasts' so others who do will have to advise you exactly how this is accomplished.

    Hey,

    first of all thanks for your answer.

    But please have a look at this video

    i know it is old but it lookslike, at least at this time, it had worked with audition in the past.

    It is not really down to Audition, whether it be an old version or the latest. Audition can only record what it get sent by your audio interface and, as I said before Audition can only use one at a time. In that Youtube video both the mic and the Stereo mix were coming from the Windows soundcard drivers. However it may be possible to use something like ASIO4All to aggregate the two audio sources so that Audition can see both. Alternatively since I see that you have VAC installed you may be able to use that to route the Stereo mix into Audition at the same time as your Audiobox sound.

    But as I mentioned previously many people, I believe, successfully use Skype with Skype recording apps like Pamela to do the whole thing within Skype. You will have to wait until others answer this post since I don't use Skype or do any Podcasting so I am not the expert on that aspect I'm afraid. If you do a search on Skype here in the Forum you will see all the available options that others use.
