4.1.1 Loopback Recording (Windows only)
The windows drivers for the Studio-series interfaces provide two virtual
streams that allow you to record the output of on audio application in
another application. Loopback can be useful in a variety of situations:
• Recording the audio from a video game or YouTube
video for a podcast or livestream.
• Recording a vocal in real time over a karaoke track
played from a web browser or media player.
Power User Tip: Because the Studio-series interfaces are class compliant Core Audio
devices, these virtual streams are not available in macOS. However, there are several
third-party applications that provide this functionality in macOS.
