So, if said mixer supports the asio driver, then you can record
everything on its own track.
of corse, in order for audacity to see said asio driver, you need to
recompile it.
I have no idea how to do such thing.

Here is an alternative, arguably less sophisticated method than Robert's,
way of getting the recordings of you and the screen reader onto separate
tracks. Having achieved the task easily with my not inexpensive Allen and
Heath ZED10 mixer, I tried successfully to do the same with the less
expensive Behringer Xenyx Q502 USB mixer. It costs a little over $100 in
Australia.
I connected a mike to the single mike input of the mixer. Output from the
screen reader was switched to the computer's onboard sound card and sent
to the Q502 via a cable. I panned the mike fully to the left and the line
in completely to the right and recorded into a stereo channel in
Audacity.
Once the recording is complete, use Audacity's Split Stereo to Mono
facility. That, unsurprisingly, gives you two mono tracks. One contains
the input from the mike and the other the input from the screen reader.
You can then adjust levels etc etc on both tracks independently.

Subject: [audacity4blind] Re: Slightly off-topic - recording multi track
files from multiple devices on Windows
Hi
This Saturday, I gave a Talk about the Audacity add-on at the NVDA
Conference.
Here is roughly what I did:
Installed Virtual Audio Cable (ca. 25 Bucks or so)
- downloaded Audir.exe (free)
- downloaded SoX.exe
- Created two VAC cables Line_1 and Line_2
For L2, I went to recording in the Windows sound settings and enabled
"Listen to this device" under properties.
- Changed the Audacity output to Line_2.
- Checked if I still heard the produced sound
- Changed the NVDA output to Line_2 as well
Now comes Audir.exe into play
It is a console application that can create and manipulate the VAC
repeater instances. You could do most things in the dialog itself,
however, Audir has the advantage that it stores previously created
instances for the future.
Repeater is perhaps a bit misleading, it is rather a kind of linker or
mapper.
Those are roughly the commands that I've used:
-> MME Line_2 Line_1 :thru
-> MME my_mic Line_1 :mic
The description after the colon are used as repeater window title and also
for storage.
I could also have defined
-> MME Line_2 mapper :monitor
instead of enabling "Listen to this device" but the latter ensures that
you hear NVDA even if the repeaters are stopped.
The conference uses Team Talk and I switched accordingly its input from
mic to Line_1 because it has the mix of all three sound sources.
For your case, you would use the sox command within the Audir console
because that way you can create an audio file.
-> sox Line_1 C:\\recording\\myfile.xyz :file1
Read in the documentation about the details.
Hope thats getting started.
Cheers
Robert

Hello, folks.The audacity4blind web site is at
I have got a need and may be you can help me.
I am a podcast producer and sometimes I need to record my voice and
NVDA / system sound to make demonstrations r other stuff.
I am using audacity to record via was loop back but this has a very
inconvenient side effect, which is my voice and the NVDA sound end up
in the same track, so there is no way of editing individual tracks.
This is stressing me because I have to take a huge care not to talk
over NVDA and if I have mistakes then I need to record the whole part
again.
I also has a usb mixer and I sometimes use it to mix esternal things,
but due to limitations here I need to record the mixer and a usb
microphone going to the computer at the same time. Again, audacity
won't allow me to record two channels to two tracks on the same project.
What do I need?
A piece of software that either captures two devices and record a
multi track wav with the mix of them ... or a piece of software that
can have multiple instances running and each one capturing one device
and recording one wav file so I can use audacity to import these files
as individual tracks on the same project.
I could use OBS Studio to capture multiple devices because it records
a
mp4 video with separate audio tracks one for each device. It would
also record of course a video and this imposes processor work,
something I would ratter prefer to avoid because some of the stuff I
am demonstrating are kit heavy anyways.
I have tried VoiceMeeter Banana but it is unfortunately not
accessible, at least for me.
So, again, I need:
A software that captures multiple devices, records a wav or similar
multi track file and also mixes and sends stuff to my hear phone so
that I can hear what is being recorded.
Either this or a software that captures devices individually and
records what is flowing through and also outputs the flow to my ear
phones.
OBS could kind of do it. In mac, Audio hijack was the perfect solution
but on Windows I am struggling to find a reliable solution.
Thanks,
Marlon
