Re: [sc-users] recording - no sound

Hi

I'm just trying to do some test recordings. Unfortunately it seems that the
file isn't recording anything, although everything seems correct. I've tried

s.makeWindow;

and then 'l' to get a monitor. This shows the microphone is receiving sound.
I see a file is created in the correct folder, BUT, there's no sound on the
file!
Any suggestions would be most welcome.

The normal case for recording in SuperCollider is to capture the hardware *output* -- you want your beautiful music in the file, not random, unedited sounds from a microphone. This is different from DAWs, where recording is assumed to capture the hardware *input*.

If you want the input, then you have to tell SC to connect input to output. Easiest:

a = { SoundIn.ar([0, 1]) }.play;

*Then* record.
