title: Windows fake mic
body: <p>I have a Windows Desktop Application written in c# and WPF. It does some recording and testing with a regular mic is cumbersome since I need to talk to the mic.</p>
  
  <p>It would be awesome to be able to have a fake mic of sorts that showed up in the Recording Devices settings in Windows that would just playback a wavefile. Some might call it a mic emulator, mic simulator, or a mock mic.</p>
  
  <p>If I listen to this fake mic I would hear the wave file. Hope this make sense.</p>
  
  <p>I tried to goolge around and found nothing. There seems to be some <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff537571%28v=vs.85%29.aspx" rel="noreferrer">Microsoft example code</a> to achieve this, but no programs ready to install.</p>
  
  <p><em>Are you aware of any such fake mic?</em></p>
