Can someone help me record? 2008-04-10 16:23:56


Hello Newgrounds Audio O:

I need a program to record something.
It records in audio, not video.
It records without a microphone.
It records sound streamed by a computer.

Will I be able to achieve this by using normal audiorecorders like Soundforge? I havent got any experience with this you see.. I havent been able to find anything in Rig's list of lists.

you don't have to check Rig's list
you just have to read the sticky
there you'll find programs that you need, like:
Audacity - wich is FREE
Adobe audition (former Cool Edit Pro)
Soundforge
etc... etc ...
also for streamed audio you can use winamp
just use on output "write to disk"

I don't know how you can do it with SoundForge, but you can certainly do it with Audacity. I think SolusLunes gave a pretty clear explanation of how to do it for Windows XP and Vista:
For Windows XP, all you have to do is:

1. Start Audacity.
2. Select the drop down menu near the microphone level slider.
3. Select "Stereo Mix" (or something that sounds similar.)
4. Hit the record button.
5. Play whatever audio you want to record.
6. Hit file, export as mp3, and you're done.

For Windows Vista, it's a bit more maddening.

First, go to Control Panel- Sound.
Next, select the recording tab.
You'll see a menu of all the recording devices on your computer. Stereo mix is mysteriously missing.

Right click on that menu, and select both "Show Disabled Devices" and "Show Disconnected Devices."

Enable the stereo mix, make it your primary recording device.

Open Audacity, hit the record button. Proceed as planned.

Don't forget to get the LAME MP3 encoder, if you don't have it already.
