Win-capture Audio

[Garland Flugum]

Welli know im using Linux, but sometimes i really wish that there was a gui for everything. Thats one thing from Windows i really miss. Well, now that im using linux i guess i have to life with that.

An OBS plugin similar to OBS's win-capture/game-capture that allows for audio capture from a specific application, rather than the system's audio as a whole. This eliminates the need for third-party software or hardware audio mixing tools that...

I know you can change the volume of all applications independently using the mixer inbuilt to windows, but I want the noise filtered, so I could even watch a film without interupting the recording of sounds from application A.

Sound cards can have multiple inputs/outputs and will allow signals to be routed. Therefore it is possible, if the software allows it, for you to select what output to use. At this point, you can route the signal.

After installation, it will create a new sound card with a playback on you real sound card. Then by "cheating". You choose the virtual sound card by default then you launch your application. Then choose your real sound card again and you will be able to record from the virtual sound card and listen from your real sound card.

Recently a company called D3DGear has developed a technology to record audio just from one process, it will not include background audios from other process. You can check D3DGear to see details of their audio technologies.

The easiest an quickest way I found was to follow the instructions in this article and use the Audacity audio editing software to record the WSAPI software device. This has the added benefit that you don't need to use different programs to record and edit.

In the Audacity device toolbar (the third toolbar from the top in the default layout) you need to change the audio host (the first drop-down) to "Windows WSAPI". You then need to change the audio device (the second drop-down) to something appropriate - this will vary - you may need to select a loopback device, or you may to just use the same device as with regular recording - some trial and error is needed.

On Mac systems a small developer, Rogue Amoeba, created an app named Audio Hijack. Which is an application with the sole purpose of recording other applications audio sources. I highly recommend it even when you requested a Windows alternative, I would consider some kind of boot system or separate device for this type of action.

I've recently upgraded to Windows 11 and I'm encountering some difficulties with a task that I think many of you might have experience with. Specifically, I'm trying to figure out how to record my screen on Windows 11 with sound. While I've found the built-in screen recording tool in Windows 11 to be quite straightforward for capturing video, I'm struggling to include audio in my recordings.

I've done some basic troubleshooting like checking my microphone and system sound settings, but I haven't had much luck so far. It's crucial for my work to create high-quality screen recordings that include both the screen activity and the accompanying audio, so any advice, tips, or recommendations from this community would be greatly appreciated.

PowerPoint's screen recording tool is integrated into the application, eliminating the need for third-party software for screen capture. This feature is particularly useful for educators, trainers, and professionals who want to create engaging presentations that include demonstrations, tutorials, or walkthroughs of software applications. You can record your entire screen or select specific areas to capture, and you also have the option to record audio from your microphone and the system audio.

Recording your screen on Windows 11 with sound can be accomplished by using the built-in tool, Snipping Tool, which has been updated to include screen recording features. First, ensure that your system's sound settings are properly configured to capture the audio you intend to record, whether it's system sounds, microphone input, or both.

To start, open the Snipping Tool from the Start menu or by searching for it. In the Snipping Tool's interface, you'll find an option to switch from image capture mode to screen recording mode. Before you begin recording, you can choose the audio source you want to include in your recording via the app's settings. Ensure the correct audio source is selected to capture the sound accompanying your screen recording.

Once you're ready to record, select the area of the screen you wish to capture or choose to record the full screen. Then, click the record button to start capturing both your screen and the selected audio. The Snipping Tool allows you to pause and resume the recording as needed, giving you flexibility in what you capture.

After you've finished recording, you can stop the recording, and the file will be automatically saved to your chosen location. The Snipping Tool also provides basic options for trimming your video before saving, allowing you to remove unwanted sections from the beginning or end of your recording. This built-in functionality in Windows 11 makes it convenient and straightforward to record your screen with sound without the need for additional software.

@Smithchow& many others, pls don't fall for these kind of Clickbaits! @Smithchow was saved that this wasn't a virus! I've seen people get scammed because of this! For example, last month, my best friend's dad download a software for recording his meetings. It was something like "TunesRecorder Pro". First of all, if the software requires you to give it administrative privileges EVERY time you launch it, I give you a 99.999% guarantee it's a virus. It's the MOST sus sign of ANY software possibly being a Trojan Horse! And I'm telling you... They can mess up your device REAL DEEP... As deep as your BIOS! So never ever "TRUST" anything. Even if it's a HUGE company like Microsoft or Apple, DO NOT TRUST THEM STRAIGHT AWAY!

If you need a screen recording software, just press Win+G. It will open Xbox Game Bar. Now in the "Capture" window, click the white dot option. Now just press any key & it will start recording.

@Anushtabh_Pateria Same experience here. I got a virus that hijacked my Chrome browser. Whenever I search for something, it led me to some ad pages. And it's very hard to remove the virus. I then had to reinstall Windows 11. I never trust any free tools now except open sources which are difficult to use for average people : (. Then, I bought the tool named ease us. Quite expensive but I'm assured. Here is an article I found this brand wrote -the Power Point way is quit easy if the third party recording software won't be a choice.

I eventually found that the way to fix is is to open the App volume device preferences (>Sound Settings>Advanced Sound Options) in Windows and adjust the App volume for Chrome.

It was preset to 100% in Windows, but I adjusted down to around 40% and this fixed the issue for me, allowing the audio to be captured correctly. at a sensible level.

Since you said you are a newbie, and based on the description of your problem, is it possible you are recording from your PC speakers? As DVDdoug has suggested, on your Device Toolbar, make sure you have Windows WASAPI selected, and your speakers (loopback).

Step 1. Launch this software on your computer, and click Settings in the top right corner to adjust your audio recording parameters. Here, you can choose to record computer audio to MP3, AAC, FLAC, OGG, or other audio files freely. Also, choose the right audio bitrate and sample rate and hit OK.

Step 2. Click the Speaker icon on the left panel to choose the audio source. If you select the System sound for capturing internal sound from the computer, you can hit the nearby down arrow to choose Record silently. That means you can record audio files while your computer is in silent mode.

Step 3. For microphone recording, you can also enable advanced recording features by clicking the down arrow: Microphone Boost and Microphone noise reduction. Enabling these features will guarantee high-quality audio recordings.

Another way to record your favorite songs and music from a computer is to use the Stereo Mix, which is a special computer audio recorder provided by your sound drivers. If your sound driver contains this tool, you are able to use it to capture all sound coming from your computer, including the system sound, microphone audio, game audio, and more.

If you prefer a free and professional tool to record computer audio, take a look at Audacity. As one of the most popular audio capture software, it is widely used for any purpose of sound recording, including recording vocals, creating songs, capturing voice calls, and others.

This freeware functions in capturing system audio, recording multiple tracks at once, applying filters to recordings, and more. That means you are able to record and edit your audio files at once and then export them to MP3 or other formats. If you just use this freeware for basic audio or vocal recording, you can start the task once you open it. However, to create high-quality music files, you need to take time to learn the advanced settings and install the necessary plugins.

Step 5. Once your audio recording is done, click File > Export to save your audio recordings to MP3, WAV, or OGG format. (By default, your audio recordings will be saved in MP3 format.)

OBS Studio is another completely free tool that can help you capture sound coming from your PC, Mac, or Linux. This software enables you to flexibly choose your target audio sources, like the system sound, capture card sound, microphone sound, and more. Besides, it provides options for adjusting audio bitrate, sample rate, and channels for those professional music creators who want to create fantastic songs here. Similar to Audacity, this freeware also allows you to install plugins if needed.
