How to record sounds from a microphone, using Windows? You can use the program “Sound Recorder”, which comes with Windows. The problem is that you have too little options and you can’t record over 60 seconds.
Audacity is a free program, which will allow you to record sounds from your microphone. You can select your default microphone, if you have more than one.
Recording is very easy : you just press the record button. It’s equally easy to cut the part of the recording you don’t want (like the very end, where you put the microphone back on its support). You can zoom in, which will allow you to better select the segments you want to remove.
Audacity uses projects. Each recording is saved in a project. You can export your project to wav, if you want to do further processing.
Audacity has a lot of effects available. For instance, if the recording of your microphone is too low, you can amplify it, to the best level without distortion.
If you read a text, for a tutorial, you can add silence between the sentences. This way, your listeners will not hear you breathing.
