I think there are controls for that but when using system audio, there's no way to get the mic in without having to hear it. It would seem that silent output should cause it to record the mic and not make it audible through the internal speaker, but it doesn't. I guess the 2 choices are to use headphones and try to concentrate with the delayed sound of yourself coming back, or trying to mix the 2 separate tracks together when I edit it. That's another feature for AHP, session groups that you can start recording with one action so the 2 files would sync up. If I started the mic recording first and then the system audio after a count, I could probably edit the beginning off the mic file and then mix it and it should be good to mix after I trim off the beginning to get them both the same length. I don't know why AHP can't just do that mixing itself.
