hi, im running windows xp,SP2 and i have a 2496 for a few months now..sounds all working alright but i realized that i have a problem when i wanted to record an audio stream from the net or record anything that is playing on the 2496 sound card itself through adobe audition..when i go to windows recording mixer under their options..a pop up came out and displaying.."There is a problem with your soundcard.To install mixer devices, please go to control panel etc.." it will prompt me to check..so i went to start->program->accessories->entertainment->volume control->properties..i find that under the recording tab..there is nothing at all..like if u go to playback..it will display wave/sw synth/cd player..but theres no option under recording..blank..so i went to control panel->Sound & Audio devices then click the Audio tab..under the sound recording..i cant select anything..what went wrong and what should i do?

2nd problem, the sound came out opposite..as in if i pan my sound to the left in adobe audition...it will come out on the right speaker..if i pan to the right..it will be the other way round too..i thought adobe screwed..so i tried on windows media player and even the volume control that i select from the start menu...still the same thing..by the way, im using an adapter that has two male rca which is connected to the two output of 2496 and the end of the adapter is a jack which i connect my speakers/headphone to. So is it my adapter or is it the driver of the 2496?

I'm confuse by this whole settings..and disappointed and frustrated that i can't work this thing out..sorry to put it in a long way as i got no one else to turn to plus i just need to get my point across..i really do..

Thankx in advance :)

The Audiophile bypasses the Windows mixer. In Audition you can select inputs 5/6 to record the output of the Delta's Monitor Mixer. This will allow you to record what is playing through the card.

The left/right issue is probably your adapter, the panning works fine for me.

how do i exactly do that in adobe? or in fact any other DAW app. Ive already tried doing that but to no avail. What is the most best configuration to set on the M-Audio Delta Control Panel?

btw which adapter u recommend best?

I'm not familiar with Audition; however, we have a guide for setting up Cool Edit that may help you: http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=support.faq&ID=e517a9188d14181b9369d9df8f8f899a

If left and right is reversed, just reverse the RCA's connected to the Audiophile.
