I have a usb mircophone in addition to a standard microphone wired into a standard NI pci board. I realize that this is a weird setup, and that it is far from ideal. Unfortunately, there are circumstances out of our control that are limiting us. Despite this fact, is there a way that I can record from both devices simultanesouly so that their time stamps match? Presently, I'm using DAQ Express for the voltage measurement and Sound Input vi for the usb microphone. I don't mind changing either of these.
I've had several thoughts about how to solve these:
1. The only way I've found to read in from the USB microphone has been the sound input vi. If DAQ Express could handle both, the problem would be resovled.
2. The other way I thought of was to have both acquisition vi's in a while loop with the same settings and just 'hope' that they were recording simultaneously and that all the time measurements lined up, but I don't know if that'll happen.
Thanks everyone!
