Trying to record audio talked on a disk via a microphone connected by USB

I'm memorizing a script and you want to save the lines on a disk so I can play them during my travels.

Hello Lew B,.

You can use Windows Vista recorder to record your voice.

The Sound Recorder shortcut located in the start menu-> Accessories.

Alternatively, you can search for the word "sound" in the search box on the Start Menu.

How to record sounds:

1. Once you've started Sound Recorder check that your microphone is plugged into the sound card. Also, remember to check the sound level in the Volume mixer. If it's on mute you will not be able to save anything.

2. When you are ready, click start recording.

3 to stop recording, click stop recording.

4. a new window will appear asking you to type the name of the file and the location where the recording will be saved. In this window, you can also specify information such as the name of the artist or the album (if this is the case). If you want to save the recording in a different folder than the default, click the browse folders.

5. go to the desired location and click on the "Save" button.

6. If you close the previous window without saving the file, you will be able to continue your recording. Click on the button to resume recording and continue.

7. When finished, click again on the button stop recording and save your record.

  • Trying to record several tracks at once with mixer (two microphones)

    I have an Alesis Multimix 4 and two microphones plugged into the mic 1 and the two mic inputs.  I am trying to record both at the same time, in two separate ways.  I put Device Class on ASIO in the section hardware Audio and delected ASIO4ALL v2 for the device.  My mixing table (I guess) appears as CODEC audio USB in the ASIO4ALL settings.  When I return to my multitrack setting, I gives me four options for the incoming audio signal:

    Audio Front Mic Input 1

    Audio Front Mic Input 2

    USB Audio CODEC 1

    Codec USB Audio 2

    No matter what combination I try, when I record, the two tracks pick up the two microphones.  My goal is to isolate the two, so I can apply different settings to both titles later, adjust the mix etc...   Audio only comes when I take the USB Audio option.  Thanks in advance.

    I think you have the right driver selected, otherwise there Wouln't work not at all. The most obvious thing to ask you if (I'm sorry if this is too basic) is where you have the pan value orders? For each microphone to record on one channel, you will need to have a panned far left and the other right hard panned. If you let the two dead panned Center, that's exactly what you get - the two microphones on both channels.

  • SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEM TRYING TO RECORD AUDIO AND VIDEO WITH THE LIFECAM VX-3000

    I use Windows 7 and have 2 GB of RAM, but when I record on my hard drive with the LIFECAM VX-3000 reading is slightly, but apparently out of sync.  Does anyone know why?

    Thank you

    Tony Cash

    Hi Anthony,.

    Although that do not know what could be the cause, here are a few things you can try.

    1 see if turning off the background tension or lowlights helps solve the problem of synchronization. See the webcam of the help manual.

    2. lower the screen resolution. Reference: change your screen resolution

    3. install the latest version of the software of the webcam.

    You can get the software here:http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/DownloadResult.aspx?category=ICE&type=LifeCam&name=68A-00001&os=Win7_3264&lang=en

     

    For more information, see:

    4. make sure that you have installed the latest drivers for your video card and sound card. See the documentation for your hardware manufacturer or a web site for more information on how to update the video card and sound card drivers.

    For updates of the driver, see this link:

  • I can't find com ports in Device Manager. Trying to interface with a counter digital multi via a RS232 connection.

    The software supplied with the meter has enough summary documentation.  When I tried to open the software, a window pops up saying that the port com 1 cannot open. I used baud rate settings that the software manual recommends but no help. Then, I uninstalled the COM ports. Now they are gone and I don't know how to re - install.

    UPDATE: I've read elsewhere that the BIOS should have the com port activated, so I went into the BIOS and of course it was off. I suspect that it is off all the time, because the software failed to connect to it when I first installed it. As soon as I have it set to com 1 everything works.

  • CarPlay audio quality of the voice when it is connected through the USB port is poor vs Bluetooth on Pioneer AVH-4200NEX

    Hello!

    I recently installed a Pioneer AVH-4200NEX unit, I was super excited to improve my car with the support of CarPlay, and everything works great except for one thing.  When I connect my iPhone (6s +) to the unit via a USB cable and a standard phone call, the audio quality is very bad - hail, very downsampled, and metallic sounding compared to the use of Bluetooth via the unit to pioneer for the same phone call (I'm on LTE, using HD voice, although the quality difference is quite noticeable on the calls not HD and on the 4 G calls).  I looked for an answer to this question, but the best that I can find mention of limited USB bandwidth and try to juggle than the bandwidth for the rest of the CarPlay experience, although I don't buy not because audio via the iPhone connected with USB playback is just as clear that it is through Bluetooth.  So my question is: How can I submit a bug report Apple about this behavior and (b) do you have other CarPlay users also be known this recent problem on a unit of Pioneer NEX (AppRadio included)?  It would be great if this is a bug of Pioneer for which they can release a firmware update, I'm just worried that it is a codec problem specified by the CarPlay, so non repairable.

    Thank you!

    Hello served,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I understand that when you use the USB cable for your iPhone in your car with the audio CarPlay is mediocre. I know how it is important for you to hear your calls clearly. In a situation like this, I recommend the steps described in the following article to help solve the problem.

    Configure CarPlay to use with your iPhone

    Specifically the section to get help:

    Get help

    If CarPlay does not work as you expect, here's what you can check. After each step, try to use CarPlay again.

    1. Make sure that Siri is turned on.
    2. Restart your iPhone and your car. Depending on your car, you can see the CarPlay home screen when you turn it on. If you do not, look for the CarPlay logo on the screen of your car.
    3. If possible, connect your iPhone to a different USB port in your car.
    4. Try a different lightning to a USB cable. Make sure that the cable is certified.
    5. Update to the latest version of iOS.
    6. Check the manual using your car. You may need to install updates of firmware for your stereo.

    See you soon

  • I'm trying to get audio only from a video. I went to record audio only: (as shown) and there is no ' audio only ' click. do I have to upgrade the machine to live music, and if so, how?

    I'm trying to get audio only from a video. I went to record audio only: (as shown) and there is no ' audio only ' click. do I have to upgrade the machine to live music, and if so, how?

    If you are looking to get audio only from a YouTube video, all you need to do is read your video and while it's going to copy the link. Then on another tab, open listentoyoutube.com. Just follow the easy directions and paste the link.

    Hope that helps. I found out a month ago and I have 4 CD made from these audio files. There is a lot of fun to find obscure stuff and making CD of songs.

  • I tried to record some live audio. I downloaded Wondershare Streaming Audio Recorder I opened the program - but could not hear the audio I tried to play.

    original title: sound problems

    Hello!

    I tried to record some live audio. I downloaded

    Wondershare Streaming Audio Recorder

    I opened the program - but could not hear the audio that I tried to play. I don't know if downloading this program is related to the problem.
    I opened Skype - and everything worked fine. I could hear, etc. But if I run an MP3 in Windows Media Player - I hear nothing!
    My sound is at the top.
    In my Volume mixer, I see:
    1 output device digital (SPDIF) bounce up and down. (but I don't)
    2 but applications: sounds of Windows, Windows Media Player and Google Chrome will not move. (but they are at the top).
    Any suggestions?
    Jews

    I managed to get the results of work. I don't know where come the SPDIF.

    I downloaded a new driver Realtek for audio from the computer. This corrects the problem.
    But I still want to know what happened.

  • Qosmio F10: How to record audio and video and use QosmioPlayer

    I am owner of a Qosmio F10-122 with TV tuner and I really need HELP. I'm Italian.

    The questions are:
    1 QosmioPlayer version 4.0.1 (2005022812) (according to the procedure of the forum) has installed fine but the sensitivity is poor; in any case the question is: is is possible to record videos? Also is it possible to record audio?

    2 input and video output are stupid; I can see Windows and QosmioTV on HDTV via DVI/SCART but I can't input in MCE TV or QosmioPlayer any signal IN Composite; so the question is once again how can record AUDIO from my Home stereo or VCR VHS VIDEO?

    3. I only use VIDEO IN to WATCH is not to save: where is my fault?

    Thanks, Marco

    Hello Marco

    I did some testing and I can tell you about my experience on Qosmio G20.

    1. as far as I know early versions of Qosmioplayer did not have the registration option but now I hope that your preinstalled version has REC option. If so, please be sure that you have about 5 GB of free space for the recorded material.

    It is not important what signal is sent to your Qosmio (TV or VCR VHS-connected) you can find it if you look at the channels. With REC option, you can save what you want. I tested it with my VCR VHS and I recorded some old movies. This material was recorder und great quality was the same as on cassettes. After recording, I started Windows MCE and transferred the material recorded in Windows using Qosmio player utility.

    I have not tried, but I put t think you will be able to record audio using only Qosmioplayer.
    2. you can record movies VHS if you connect your VCR VHS on the Qosmio using the antenna cable. Launch Media center Edition (TV option) and scan channels. In my case, I could watch movies VHS on MCE on channel 31. Using REC option you can save all documents of video cassettes. Later, you can change the recorded material and create own DVDs. It really isn't a problem.

    Your audio Home Audio recording can be a bit more problematic, and if you want it to be on the professional path you will need a device external and of course some professional recording software.
    3. I don't know what to write here. Just try to do what I already descriebed under 1 and 2.

    Good bye

  • Cannot record Audio CD player

    I have a problem trying to record frrom audio to a CD using the CD from my PC.  When you use the analog recorder in "Microsoft Plus", I get no audio 'CD player' audio of entry although it plays through Windows Media player perfectly.  Analog recorder software uses default 'CD player' when the CD player is used, which means that I can't adjust the sound level or recording.  I get the same result through "Audacity".

    This problem seems to coincide with the installation of a Nvidia graphics card but the withdrawal of the card and all that setting back to its previous state has not cured the problem.  "Audio Converter" errors out with audio codec errors and therefore won't convert files to MP3 format.

    I reinstalled Microsoft Plus, disconnected and then reinstalled the CD player and removed the Nvidia graphic card; all to nothing does not.

    I checked for IRQ and memory conflicts and found the following conflicts;

    I/o ports 0 x 00000000-0x00000CF7 - PCI bus

    IO port 0 x 00000000-0x00000CF7 - Direct memory access controller

    IRQ 16 - Intel (r) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24D2

    IRQ 16 - Intel (r) 82801EB USB Universal Host Controller - 24DE

    Address 0xA0000-0xBFFFF memory - bus PCI

    Memory address 0xA0000-0xBFFFF - NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 (graphics card)

    Can anyone help me?.

    Thank you in anticipation

    Sorry to be so long to reply to your reply (the big problems with the PC!).

    Sort of, the problem is resolved: there was an update for the Microsoft software to solve a problem with the latest editions of Windows media player. I installed the fix and everything is fine now. Thank you.

  • Microphone is not record audio (my voice) during the recording of videos!

    So, today I went to check on some of my video files to modify and at their reading, I heard no noise. I was confused by this because in the past, my microphone was fine and should record audio without a problem. But all of a sudden it stopped working at all, at least for the record there. When I'm in Skype calls, my microphone seems to work because I can be heard. But when I try and save, my microphone is not working. I record with Fraps and tried a lot of different options within the system itself. I tried "His file Win7" stereo and surround, and two of them did not work. I even went to Skype call testing service to see if my microphone still worked, and when it reproduces the audio I could hear myself using the microphone. Please help me because I don't know what the problem is!

    Edit: Forgot to say that I tried to record with no microphone but the eternal mic and I have all his be picked up when recording, but when I tested it with Skype, I could hear audio.

    Re Edit: So I tried later and tested with my microphone and could not hear any audio, but when I used the computer's microphone, I could hear audio! So that leads me to believe that my mic is broken, but I can't be sure.

  • All trying to record music on a software, connect the external input jack does not cut its computer system.

    Original title: external recording

    While trying to record music on a software, connect the external input jack is

    not to cut his computer system.  Thus the external player unit is not recorded by

    the continuous computer but the record of construction - micro. With the help of windows 7 on a dell computer

    laptop.

    Seems that you can set with precision in the application (whatever it is) where to get sound input or configuration in the audio to enable driver software disabled the internal MIC (manually each time, or automatic if the driver has this feature.)
     
    Basically - you must look in the configuration of your audio device (third-party drivers) and/or the configuration of the 'software' you are trying to use to "save the music".
