Advantages of the Enhanced Sound Card Driver
The Enhanced Sound Card Driver works by mimicking
a sound card on your PC, trapping sounds, and then sending those
sounds to the default sound card. In most cases, this works perfectly.
When recording with the Enhanced Sound Card Driver,
you'll enjoy these bonuses:
- Cleaner, distortion-free recordings.
- Support for more sound cards.
- Sounds from other programs, including system noises, are eliminated
from recordings.
- The Mute While Recording option will work on all PCs.
Disadvantages of the Enhanced Sound Card Driver
Here are some problems you may run into:
- Recording is more processor intensive. Users with slower processors
may find recordings that would work well using other Recording
Sources may skip, or the VU meter and recording timer may not
update as they should (rare).
- Some unexplainable side-effects of these drivers have been noticed.
Some programs may not run or install properly when the drivers
are loaded (rare).
- Won't support Windows Server 2003.
- Can't be active when using Skype.
