Do realtek audio drivers work with this? I need the stereo mix thing that comes with realtek hd audio to record stuff on my computer.

I have a MacBook and its Lion OS recognizes the Sabrent USB when it's plugged it to one of the USB ports. As far as what drivers function with it, sorry, I couldn't say. If I were to need to research this further, I would look on Apple Help. If you are using a PC, good luck.

When you plug in the device, it becomes its own driver. So the computer recognizes it as a usb driver. So realtek audio drivers would be separate.

Yes and yes. You can find the drivers on the M-Audio webpage. I use Windows 7 64-bit, and I have two of these cables that work perfectly on it.

I am running windows xp professional and as Todd states, the software you are running should not matter if you have speaker output jack. Hope you have a speaker jack. You will like these little Creative speakers. Tom

No direct USB/pc connection with this. I bought a "Behringer XENYX 1204USB 12-Input 2/2 Bus Mixer w/USB" (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003EUX2QM/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) so that I can use my pc to do the recording and editing.

That really depends. The newer Realtek chips are pretty good, the ALC1150 in particular. The ALC888 is also pretty decent. Virtually any other Realtek codec, on the other hand, won't sound as good as this.Bear in mind if you're using a surround headset that plugs in over USB, those decode audio in software on the PC, bypassing any sound card you may have connected. You'll only benefit from this card if you're plugging into the analog inputs on the card, as you would with something like Razer's Tiamat 7.1.

Cynthia, your PC should have two mini jacks, one for a mic and the other for a headset. plug it into the mic jack. The next challenge is figuring out how to get it to work. If you are using a MAC, I can't help, but ig you are using a PC running any version of Windows you may have to go to the speaker symbol on the task bar in the far right side on my systems, right click and open recording devices. To record you may want to load Audacity, a free sound audio recording/editor. My mic had a touchy on/off switch, but it works fine now. The Sound controls are also available in the Control Panel. Good luck. I live mine.

If you want to spend a little more money for higher quality audio - I have this setup and it works great: a small high quality Audio-Technica stereo mic: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0016ARZ9C/ with an excellent mounting bracket http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000065Q6B/

I haven't tried that yet. I would like to know myself. And also what the yellow icon is below the headphone and microphone jacks. If it does record properly (in stereo) email me at halsmithnauvoo@gmail.com. As a fellow-owner, we have to help each other out.

I brought it for my grandsons with an Behringer 302USB Premium 5-Input Mixer with XENYX Mic Preamp and USB/Audio Interface for $49 they say it works but they can't download the software to do the mixing personally I read an answer to this question that makes more sense --return it and buy a snowball usb mike. I goggled it and it is cheaper and seems less complicated to use and set up-- http://bluemic.com/snowball/

Try this link for a download location and how to install the drivers. The sound card uses the Realtek engine so they should work.http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1236

behringer sells a usb converter about 20 bucks that goes between the usb and the mixer, if your wanting to record through usb, or you can go from headphone jack out, or microphone in, the mic input has stereo input, on your laptop.... just buy a rca jack y cord to mini jack headphone about 2 bucks or so.... usb can be a pain having to set all the computer settings to get it to work,, I use audacity, and I get lost sometimes clicking on all the settings trying to get it to work

I am assuming you bought used because the one I bought With drivers disk and the Cubasele disk and loaded on windows 7 without a hitch. Load the drivers first then install the software from Steinberg and choose your audio hardware from the preferences.

Yes, as far as I know. Cubase AI comes with the drivers for UR824 Audio Interface. It did when I got mine. You will need a elicenser for Cubase AL to work.

If you are using windows, when you plug it in, the drivers will be found automatically!!! When you start your daw, you may have to go to the settings and select it to use it.

Good question. I don't think it matters. For true stereo you need two mikes. I use Audacity software with windows and can record stereo, but that seems to be a software configuration.

Personal experience from myself is no as most modern PCs have realtek HD audio or something comparable. If you do buy this the actual controller has a built in equalizer that you need to work with to get the best sound.
