stereo mix
Left-right audio combination
A stereo mix is an audio recording combined into two channels—left and right—creating the spatial sound heard through headphones or paired speakers.
In recording software, the stereo mix is often a virtual audio device that captures all system sounds: Enable stereo mix to record what's playing through your speakers.
The term contrasts with mono (single channel) and surround sound (multiple channels).
