Audio is complicated

So, I've been making Youtube videos with my friends on and off for about a year now.  We play games (so unique, I know), and we talk with the program RaidCall.  In all my videos, I've recorded our voices and game sound with Shadowplay, which always leaves one of the three (me, the game, or my cohosts) barely audible. For my new setup, Shadowplay will only cover game sounds, and Audacity will record me. However, Audacity can't seem to record specific programs.  Am I just doing it wrong, or should I use a different program for the other people I want to talk.  If so, which one?

Okay, so I'm thinking I'll use two Audacity windows to record me and system sound.  I think that should work.

Should do! And welcome to the forum aswell mate, great forum
