Vista Audio Solution - What You Hear

This is the strangest thread i think I've seen in some time. I'm pretty
sure the lack of the soundloop, 'what u hear', or 'speaker out', or
whatever you call it is a combination of new 64bit drivers and the new
audio architecture in Windows starting with Vista.

I have a soundblaster audigy and it has it's signed 64bit driver from
Creative and the soundloop for recording is simply NOT present, no
matter what name you give it. And yes, I've instructed the Sound
Control Panel to reveal all the devices.

The initial poster, starter of this thread has at least one point
correct. A driver is needed to provide the soundloop ability. Or ones
driver must already have that ability. The 32bit drivers which were
created for some for use in XP, are usually usable in Vista 32bit.
However, for some undisclosed reason it is simply a function which was
not included in the 64bit versions of the signed drivers.

The reason some tools which are free don't have drivers which have that
function, is because getting signed drivers is a process and i believe
it does cost money. Which makes it hard for free projects to implement
soundloop drivers.
