The topic "Listen While Recording" at http://nch.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=8818 posted in 2008 remains unanswered! I have the same dilemma:
PRIOR to installing RecordPad, I could use my WIN-XP (SP3) 60-second Sound-Recorder and listen DURING recording.
Now that Ive installed it, I cant hear anything during the recording phase which makes it difficult to know when I want to stop recording. Playback is fine and the recording is good. I have checked my OS'es "Master Volume" and "Recording Controls" and nothing is Muted and all volume controls are up high. I have checked Microphone and Output audio properties and everythings fine there too. Also, I tried simply to use the old XP Sound Recorder again but now I can no longer listen while recording that either! Your product has apparently "jacked" my audio properties and you have not resolved this for TWO-YEARS?!!
Please dont make me wait another two years for an answer to this posting. I will post a duplicate of this question at CNET.com's Media/Audio Forum. Thanks.
