Total Recorder
Total Recorder is a sound recording and playing program. It records analog sound digitized by a sound card, as well as sound generated, or requested, by other computer programs, such as RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, Quick Time, WinAmp, and many others. Recorded sound is saved in wave-file format or you can use external programs to save recorded sound using MP3 format. For example, you can use Total Recorder to record: - audio from the Internet, either audio files or live streams - music from a game program - a conversation, if you use an Internet telephony program. Total Recorder uses a virtual sound driver to capture the sound output from another program. By installing this driver, and setting this device as the default, different sound reproducing programs send their output stream to Total Recorder's driver and not to the driver of a real device. Total Recorder then passes the information to the sound card driver. Our Review: As simple and fast as Windows Sound Recorder yet as tooled-up enough to ensure it will meet any of your recording needs Total Recorder lives up to its name as the total recording package. All the ordinary functions are there with different recording quality and sources (software, CD, line-in etc.) ready and accounted for. Additional features come in the form of volume normailization, all sorts of compression (i.e. MP3, provided you provide your own codecs) and a recording scheduler. Undoubtedly a class program, Total Recorder is also one of the few programs available that allows you to record off other applications, e.g web-based streaming audio and videos. Recommended. NB. This demo limits recording to 40 seconds.
