No jack, records just fine, but NO computer sound

Post by hapibeli »

If I email my recording to my wife's laptop, or to friends, they hear it fine. So how do I make sure that not only do I record through my usb interface, but I can have system sound to hear my recording as well as youtube, spotify, or anything else from my laptop?
Thanks all.

From what is known from your description I see only two possibilities ATM:
Either connect directly your wife's laprop email to your laptops' speakers.
Or, have a try at filling up a few parts of the 5W1H missing in your post and resend it :)

(I'd bet the second solution might have better chances than the first but I'm not immanent, at least not this week.)
