Digitorc 4 Manual
Windows Vista / 7 / 8 Mono Recording Bug
Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 have a bug which causes mono recording streams
to capture only the left channel of the source, rather than mixing the left and right as previous
versions did. As a workaround until this is fixed, the driver provides a
Mono Mix
recording
endpoint for each of the card’s inputs. By default these are disabled, but can be individually
enabled as follows.
Right-click on the loudspeaker symbol in the bottom right hand corner of the screen and select
Recording Devices
. Right-click on any of the sources and check
Show Disabled Devices
,
which should then reveal four additional sources called
Input 1 Mono Mix
,
Input 2 Mono Mix
,
Input 3 Mono Mix
and
Input 4 Mono Mix
. To enable these, right-click on them and select
Enable
. Note that, after enabling, it will still show as
currently unavailable
as these endpoints
are multiplexed with the normal stereo inputs and are only activated when opened by a
recording application. Also be aware that, for the same reason, the
stereo
and
mono mix
endpoints for the same source can’t be used simultaneously.
The
Mono Mix
endpoints should be used for communications applications such as Skype which
open a mono capture stream.
