Instead of using two computers (which isn't needed at all), you could just:

1. Call the other DJ through Skype
2. Set your recording device to "Stereo Mix" instead of "Microphone"
3. When you wish to talk in SAM, simply hit lock talk, and make sure you have F12 pressed (mute studio) so the bed playing in the background won't echo. Also make sure you have the mic config set to "Encoders" instead of "Mixer". This way, it skips the pipeline. (This part is a one time setting by the way...)

Once you release lock talk, you can unmute studio and listen to the song or whatever you want. Just realize that when you do this, the other DJ will hear themselves echo when they talk... but that's just the fact of doing it. Not really a big deal.

All I'm saying is, is that you really don't need two computers. I've done this various times. The most important steps are to just make sure stereo mix is set, and you have mute studio on, or prepare for a major echo.

Stereo Mix doesn't include your microphone, so they can't hear you. That's why you need to be in the call on another computer.

Anything like that, yes.

Actually, Stereo Mix can pick up your microphone very easily. To do this, instead of going to recording control, simply go to volume control and instead of having your mic muted in volume control, have it unmuted. You will not hear an echo, you'll just hear yourself live.

Since you'll be able to hear yourself, Stereo Mix (often referred to as "What U Hear") will pick it up then.

So no, again, two computers are not needed.
