And none of this 'it doesn't support it' bs we all love to hear from the support teams. Will someone explain to me, what benefit does it provide to 'nix' the feature other than it irritates the very people who buy these types of high end sound cards? Why does my onboard audio get the feature? Seriously? I'm sure it takes an engineer 1 minute to modify the. Just open it up and youll see the last entryįor the Class registry key for it.

We do know the feature is present in the. Truthfully, even the Xonar STX card (which I bought the STX and Phoebus - if you want to know why, because I'm one of those people who can do those types of things) even has the ability for Stereo Mix under the recording tab. If this is due to digital rights BS, for the love of whatever deity do we need to go through this all over again? Its ridiculous to think that $80 sound cards get this feature. I don't think I'm alone to say I find it absurd to spend $200 on this card and find out the 'Stereo Mix' aka 'What U Hear' (in other sound cards) has been removed. I can't comment on the drivers beforehand, as I didn't own this card then.

The latest Windows 7 drivers are by far fantastic. Despite all the negativity surrounding this card, I purchased it anyway.
