Computer as recorder

I want to configure my pc as a recorder for conferences, in a room ambient sounds, etc.   I already found the recorder hardware on the pc.

1. do I need additional software other than what is in Windows XP?

2. If so, what is a simple logger application?  Not interested in sound quality, just to be able to record voice and play without much complication.

Thank you!

  • How to change the time that the computer automatically saves the data entered. I want to record while I'm typing.

    How can I get the computer to record while I'm typing in it?

    Hello

    · What application you are using to save data?

    You must manually save the file you are working on using the key CTRL + S.

    However, if you use any office 2007 or applications later we have auto save option.

    Note: AutoRecover or AutoSave does not replace the Save command. You must use the Save command to save your document at regular intervals and when you have finished working on it.

    ASR is effective for unplanned interruptions, such as a breakdown or accident. AutoRecover files are not designed to be saved when a logoff is scheduled or a normal shutdown occurs.

  • His record game

    I am trying to record internally for example I want to play an audio file on the computer and record using soundforge but the microphone seems to be only picking up of outside noise. Entered microphone setup, but cannot see what setting it must be. Can someone help me with this issue?

    If you are using a microphone, the only way would be to sit it in front of the speakers.

    You can connect the output line by line in and tweak the outgoing/incoming settings.
    Is there a reason you can't just open the file directly in Soundforge?  Playback/record is bound to lose quality.

  • Information recorded

    My computer never recorded thing I've done from one day to the other. Example, I continue to put my internet to automaticlly connect when there is no current connection, and I'm going to remove the stuff from my desk top. I turn off my computer and the next day when I turn it on the stuff that has been deleted is back and I need to connect. Is someone else has this problem? I don't have this problem when I had XP.

    This happens with all users of your system or simply with your user account?  Your user profile may be corrupted.  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.  If that is the only available Administrator Profile (you need to be an administrator to fix this), enable the Hidden Administrator Account (HAA) using http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?&lang=en&cr=US&guid=&sloc=en-us&dg=microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_passwords&p=1&tid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055&mid=d20f9db4-7b2c-48be-a087-7835dc2a9055.  If you don't remember the password, try nothing because that's probably what you (or seller) did during the installation.  Once that is done, don't forget to disable the HAA to save it in case it is necessary once again and for safety reasons (since people often try to hack into systems using this account).  Do NOT use the HAA as your administrator account because if you lose the only administrator on the system account or it is damaged again, then you're watered.

  • using a desktop (enter into the computer) instead of the camera microphone microphone

    using a desk mic /mixer (going into computer) instead of the camera microphone... Why it will work on windows movie maker, but not the player that is downloaded with the lifecam... I missed something? It should be possible for audio professionals who what to mix while here thanks, Bruce, The Big 8 Radio video

    Hello Brucerider ,

    1. Open Sound by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Control Panel. In the search box, type sound, and then click sound.

    2. Click the recording tab.

    3. In the recording tab, change the record imput accordingly to your need and how you want to receive all the sounds on your computer. and then click OK.

    Note! You could have: Microphone, Line In, (these are the two standards you will get) + other tax like other microphone or mixing table, in your camera microphone case (or something similar).

    As you wrote in your post that you are using a microphone, mixer on your computer, and you insert your froum output jack console (console mixer or what you use) microphone input slot of your computer, your recording settings must be set to Microphone.

    Hope this will help you through your problem.

  • Records "doesn't work anymore"?

    The 'documents', 'music' and 'video' folders in library have simply stopped working.  When I click on any of them, I get the following message:

    [quote] "Document.library - ms" is no longer.
    This library can be removed safely from your computer.  Records that have been added will not be affected [/ quote]
    I get a similar message for the music and the photos but video library is very well.
    I have no idea why this has happened and no idea how to solve this problem.  I didn't do anything that I know to get them to stop working.   I was working on the computer and when I tried to save my document, I get the above message.  I had to save my work on an external hard drive.
    However, I can go to the c drive and find all subfolders contained in documents, music and video.
    Can someone tell me please how to fix this problem.  I'm NOT a computer expert.  This has happened before and I ended up having to do a complete reinstallation on the computer.  I lost a load of things and I don't want to do it again.
    Only, I bought the computer a few months ago.
    Thank you
    John

    Thanks a lot for your help.  It worked (phew).

    It is probably a real kick in the water, but you have no idea how libraries could become corrupt?  Only my wife and I use the computer and we do nothing more with Microsoft Office and Internet.  I have a few aps, such as Evernote, News360 and Pulse news; everything else is what was on the computer when I got it.  I also have i-tunes.  We do not customize anything.
    Thanks again for your help.
    Kind regards
    John.

  • I lost £95 by clicking on 'license & Save to Computer '.

    Hello, a few days, I registered an account and choose the 'Photographer' plan, I see a 'Get 10 free images in the first months' promotion and I want to try it.

    Yesterday, I tried to find some images, tried to download to see the works of promotion, I background image, there are only 3 buttons:

    -License & save on computer

    -Record a clip on computer

    -Find similar

    I thought that it is free for the first month, so I clicked on 'License & Save to Computer', but then I was charged £95.

    I was very shocked, tried to contact support, but yesterday they told me to wait 24 hours, today I discuss it again and they told me "no refund for Adobe Stock external license.»

    I thought that I have 10 free images, but now I've lost £95, this money is very big for me, I don't know why this is an external license.

    Please help me, please show me a way, a link, or someone I can contact to talk about me!

    Help me! Thank you very much!

  • It's all gone

    When I started at Thunderbird today, there was nothing. The program asked me if I wanted to set up an e-mail account.

    Some addresses are ther and my calendar (extensions seems to be there - but google contacts says it cannot sync).

    All messages are gone, all accounts are gone, local folder disappeared. All with very important messages.

    When I check my file system, I can see all the files as usual, so they are not gone, just disconnected somehow. What should do? I need to send things today, and addresses are in these emails, so it's not really funny. Maybe I have to stop using the computer to record stuff, anything can happen. Better to use the paper as before.

    Can I fix by setting the computer to yesterday before this happened? The problem is that there are addresses to come during the day, so they would be lost if I reset yesterday morning (which are the only thing that I can use the time).

    Help? I found a site with info, but English is not my mother tongue, and I didn't know what they meant. In many unknown words - and I do not know if it was really the same problem.

    Looks like the same exact article to me, but if it worked for you, that is all that matters.

    If you please mark as resolved if you work back.
