How to capture sound from headphones in C++ in Visual Studio 2013 Express Ed.

Question

See more:

Please tell me the name of a library that can be used with C++ and Visual Studio 2013 Express Edition and Windows 7 which enables to:
1. capture sound from headphones (playing to headphones is so easy I don't need to ask)
2. read / write wave format (or other simple format without lossy compression)
3. if possible/easy: capture sound from microphone and simulate microphone (send wave file)

I've tried a few libraries, but can't compile any because of missing files from MFC (afx.h, afxwin.h etc), and because some of them are rather obsolete in 2013. Those files are not on my PC despite installing DirectX, SDK and Windows Driver Kit 8.1.

Visual C++ Express does not include MFC, you would need to buy of the complete Visual Studio versions.

I'm aware of that. I'm asking about solution without MFC.
