Windows 10: win 10 home record in works great. Win 10 pro only produces muffled sounds. why the...

I am trying to get win 10 pro mic input on Hp I7 to work with my audio interface. It comes out muffled on my DAW. However when I use the same interface settings, but old version of win10 I have not problems getting great recording sound. Why the difference between the two versions of windows?

What happened to Sound Recorder for Win 10 ?

I installed Win 7 and installed all motherboard drivers

Realtek HD Audio Manager icon on taskbar shows the following:

Sound Manager

Audio Devices

System Sound Events

Windows Media Player

Volume Control

Sound Recorder

The built-in Sound recorder app worked great in Win 7

When I clicked on Realtek HD Audio Manager>Sound Recorder

It would allow Stereo Mix to grab any playing music.

I then upgraded from Win 7 to Win 10

When I clicked on Realtek HD Audio Manager>Sound Recorder

It now shows nothing. The built-in Windows 7 program "Sound Recorder" is gone also.

I read Anju Thekkethil's answer. I read the follow up answers.

No Stereo Mix Voice Recorder in Windows 10 to record sound from PC

Even if I go to my motherboard Manufacturer and install the latest Realtek sound drivers and run Win 7 compatibility it will still bsod.

I agree with kjl1956.

"it is a win10 issue, not hardware, drivers or software."

No soup for you....

 

Win 10 boots...

I can't answer to the speed of Win-8 booting. I tried the Win-8 preview and went back to Win-7 after a month. They say that Win-8.1 is a lot better than Win-8 was.
My Win-10 TP is working well ATM.

 

Sound is muffled, is there a fix?

Same issue (muffled sounds, especially voice) after upgrade to Windows 10. Using Realtek High Definition Audio. Worked fine in Win 8.1 previously.

I got things working again by adjusting the Surround Sound / Stereo settings. For more detail, this is how I got it back to work with no new drivers.

1. Search for Sound (should be under settings)

2. Click Configure while selecting the Realtek Speakers

3. Click on Stereo and then Next through to the end.

4. Test the sound

If it's not working, there might be another option, suggested by other users on this forum:

1. In the Sound settings, click on Properties while selecting your Speakers

2. In the Enhancements tab, click Disable all sound effects

3. In the Advanced tab, unclick "Allow applications to take exclusive control..."

4. Apply the settings and test the sound.

A third option, suggested by other users, is to roll back to drivers for Windows Vista (see above):

They said: Realtek 10/1/2013, 6.0.1.7054 sound great on Windows 10.
