Sound card - sound recording

I am trying to understand the concept of this. I have a "sound card" installed on the computer.  I know that I need a microphone. Next. I need to install a "pilot"?  Other than the recording of the sounds of the room with the microphone. and other devices, it allows to communicate vocally with others online?  For example, installation of San Diego Zoo?  Can get you into the details about it / thanks,.

Hi Debra,

If you can hear the sound during playback of an audio file, then the sound card drivers are installed. You may need to update the driver, if you face any problem playback/record sound on your computer.

You can see the following link for more information:

  • Problem of sound recording

    Hello team,

    When you use Skype to video chat online, my microphone recording device began an absurd behavior. I can hear clearly the voice of the other party, but my voice that them is very disturbed with a lot of background noise. Even when I check its recording through the sound recorder and read it, it sounds too similarly troubled. Can anyone please help...

    Hi Priya,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    I understand that the other party is unable to hear your voice clearly during your Skype conversation and also through the sound recorder.

    There may be possibility of settings can not be adjusted correctly. I would refer to the article below to change the settings to get clear sound.

    Step 1: Problems troubleshooting Audio from Skype

    Step 2: Open the troubleshooting of Audio recording

    Step 3: Update sound card drivers

    Try to update the latest drivers for your sound card and check if the problem persists.

  • Sound recording play hum and then no audio

    Recently, my computer had a problem where it sometimes, for no reason that I can understand, will emit a noise for a second or two and then all the sound elements will be gone. In Device Manager, it will say that the sound card works fine. It is not a question of volume: if I turn up to 100 in the mixer, there's still nothing. If I run the troubleshooter, it will say that there is no problem. If I try if the sound recorder, it is said that a device is not found. Also, if I try to play music in Foobar, he responds with "error unrecoverable read: unknown error code (0 x 88890010). I can restart the computer and everything will be fine, but it happened with a frequency of more recent times. It is very annoying because it is quite unpredictable when it will happen.

  • How to turn off the sound recording on a Camileo H20?

    I just got a new VCR Camileo H20. Directly from the box.

    I use it for video road races to complement the photographs that I take with my Nikon digital camera.

    I am really satisfied with the short video clips that I record, whether they are clear and sharp (fingers crossed). They are very well received by the riders.

    * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bNCKCKafCw *.

    The only problem I have is that I would like to turn the microphone off. Supporters cry comments that are usually fairly light, but recently one or two went over the top with comments derogatory offence.

    I know I can turn off the sound in the video editing software that I use, but as I said, I would like to turn the microphone off.

    I do not understand why, when I put the * sound * to * Off * in the Menu it still records the sound.

    Any help on this would be really appreciated.

    Thank you.

    > I do not understand why, when I put the sound on Off the menu it still sound recordings.

    I m H20 not owner but I have a Camielo: 30. But the two are very similar, the sound-> off the coast of the option that you can find in the menu does not sound recording via microphone, but the sound that appears by pressing the buttons by navigating through the menu.

    If you can not turn off the sound while you record a video.

  • Sound recording on a L750D Satellite speakers

    Hello

    I'm trying to set up my Satellite L750D (psk36a-038008) so I can record using the sound which is sent to the speakers and not only the input from the microphone. (everything that comes through the speakers could be recorded by any sound recording software, I use). I was able to do it on a previous (not Toshiba) laptop, but he won't do it.

    In the recording of the microphone tab, I had the "Show disabled devices" option ticked/checked but nothing else shows in addition to the microphone conexant.

    The laptop is less than 1 months old, is he already new drivers?
    Thank you

    And what is the source of this noise?
    You want to record music from internet radio or what?

    As far as I know, Toshiba has a build-in microphone and it is designed to be used with applications of communications such as Skype, MSN or something similar. As far as I know when the microphone is ON the speakers are OFF.
    It works on this way to avoid the effect microphonics.

    To be honest is unclear to me that you can force the laptop to work on this track and record the sound from the speakers.

  • Audio microphone recording sound recording

    I can't get my internal microphone to work properly.  During playback, my voice sounds like I am taking the floor in a kettle + it is barely audible and resonates as I am 1 million miles, speaking via a satellite connection.  I contacted the technical support of HP, was on the phone for about 3 hours during 2 days; I came home yesterday, the laptop (HP ENVY dv7 - 7333cl Notebook PC) at Costco, where I exchanged for an identical one that has the same problem.  On their recommendation, I downloaded a new audio driver, made updates, and last night I did a full system recovery, but, alas, no better...

  • sound recorder, no not enough memory available to complete this operation. Quit one or more applications to increase available memory, and then try again.

    I tried to use sound recorder to test a microphone and it came with an error message after pressing the record and then he said, sound recorder, not stop not enough memory available to complete this operation. Quit one or more applications to increase available memory, and then try again. This issue is out of nowhere because he has never had this problem before. It's a brand new computer that ive built from the bottom up, and I have 4 GB of memory. only a little more than 2 is actually identified by windows xp, however. Ive looked in the Task Manager and it says I have 2 GB of free, so I don't know what to do

    Hi superconfused123,

    This problem occurs because of a design limitation in the tape recorder.
