The reason I'm asking is that

the standard way of working (although not the only way)

is to record your backing track(s) say Track 2

then

record your vocal (Track1) while listening through headphones to Track 2.


That's why I'm asking what,exactly,is "stereo mix" on Track2.

If it's a cd or samples or anything that can be recorded,then you record that first onto Track2.

If "stereo mix (Track2) something that absolutely can't be recorded on it's own,then that's a different problem.
Well, what I wanna do isn't music-related...I wanna record Skype calls.

Therefore, the mic and stereo mix have to be record at the same time. And the reason they both need their own track, is so that I can edit them individually afterwards.

I know REAPER is meant for music, but I figured it could do what I wanna do, too, since, it IS a multitrack recording program, right?
