[Rwp] Routing internal sounds for recording NVDA with the live recording bounce.

[Patrick Perdue]

There is a program called virtual recorder (or something like that,) 
which uses FFMpeg as it's engine. It has a filter that can directly 
capture from DirectShow without using virtual audio cables, as well as a 
second input. I wrote to the author about getting support such that the 
two sources could be recorded to their own track simultaneously, as 
completely separate tracks. Not sure if that ever happened.
I can't tell you how many times I've had to edit someone's work where 
speech was 12.5 times louder than the mic, or the person was recording 
in a noisy environment, etc. and the only thing I had to work with was a 
composite mix. Call me spoiled, but I really hate dealing with those 
situations. Give me discrete tracks for everything!!!

One of the things I like about my MOTU Audio Express is that it has a 
loopback, like the old M-Audio interfaces, such that you can route audio 
returning from a PC as it's own track, or as part of a custom mix.
Not that you'd necessarily want to use a good high-end audio interface 
for just that sort of thing, but it's an option.
