What is needed is the internal sound coming from Skype to be recorded as such, that is, directly from "inside" the sound card, not from the real speakers and not through the microphone: a purely digital sound, not the material sound, if I may say so. (Except this one, which also records the parties in separate tracks.) The software that is promoted for recording Skype in Windows (at least the freeware) is far from giving the same level of quality. The result is a multi-channel audio file, with separate channel for each input, in which, if need be, each channel can be edited and heard separately. Transfer audio between application with no added equipment or special settings.Trying to learn how to record a Skype conversation, I found here that this can be done on a Mac with Audacity and other free applications (by adding an aggregated device and a multi-output device in Mac's Audio MIDI Setup) - and with a superior result to what other apps for recording Skype on Windows or Mac can provide. I'd say anything over 4GB of ram is fine, other than that the program is solid.

The most common ones being an annoying audio stutter or popping sound. Another thing you have to keep in mind when using Virtual Audio Cable is that your computer is way above the minimum requirements to prevent any sound quality issues. Basically, anything that doesn't allow custom audio input or output sources won't work with Virtual Audio Cable. Also, keep in mind all applications are not compatible with Virtual Audio Cable. I'd suggest looking up user made tutorials on other websites to get the basics down. Add on to the fact there is no solid tutorial that comes with it either. This is mainly due to tot he fact it operates in such a weird way. Virtual Audio Cable does have a bit of a learning curve about it.

That might sound and seem confusing at first but once you realize that it just the program working you'll be used to it. Whenever the users use the software a virtual cable actually shows up the applications you are using. Virtual Audio Cable has a unique windows integration that might catch users off guard.
