How to record audio with Audio Record Wizard

Step 1: Choose an appropriate source

Before we start recording, we need to make sure that Audio Record Wizard is set up the way we want it.

In this example, we select our primary sound card, "Realtek High Definition Audio".

In this example, we would like to record from microphone, so select "Microphone".

Note - Names for devices are provided by its manufacturer, so different sound cards have the different names. If you are not sure which device should be selected, you may need to do some test recording to see if it is the right device.

"Microphone", "Mic", "Mic Volume", are used for recording from microphone;

"Line In", "Line Input", are used for recording from Line-in jack on the sound card. External audio devices (e.g. tape player) can be recorded in this way;

"Speakers", "Stereo Mix", "What U hear", are used for recording what is playing on the computer;

Step 2: Choose an audio file name

Click the Add/New Button to choose an audio file, or give a new audio file name.

Audio Record Wizard will record sounds directly into this file. After recording, you can play the saved audio file on your computer by using a media player program.

Step 3: Start recording!
