- duskwuff 1y agoSupport for the "Stereo Mix" audio source is a relatively recent thing - and my understanding is that, even now, it's driver-dependent. It most certainly wasn't available in Windows 3.1.
- dlcarrier 1y agoI used to record the output audio using Sound Recorder, in Windows 95, so the feature goes back at least 30 years.
