I have a SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 card and am using it for a bit of guitar recording using Cubase. Anyone know why, in Windows, only 1 recording input device can be selected at any one time? I want to multitrack using the mic input and the line input but at the moment can only record through one device only.
If you can only select one at a time, then thats what the drivers of the SBLive are designed for. I dont think its a windows XP limitation but a limitation of the sound card and its drivers. You might try www.soundblaster.com to obtain the latest drivers for your card under WinXP.
Another way around this is to use a mixer before the sound card. This will allow multiple inputs to the mixer but send out a single output to the soundcard.
