Windows Forum / Windows 98 / Performance / May 2007How to record more than a minute with Windows Sound Recorder
How can I record more than a minute with the Windows 98 and Windows XP Sound Voice recorders that ship with Windows?  SignatureRomans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. CERM-Church Education Resource Ministries http://www.cerm.info > How can I record more than a minute with the Windows 98 and Windows XP > Sound Voice rec Mute the microphone. Click Record and let it record nothing for the whole 60 seconds. When it stops, click Save as and name your file. In Soumd Recorder, click Insert File and insert the file you just recorded. This increases the recording time by 60 seconds. Repeat this step once for each additional minute you want to add. What a pain. I better download a sound recording application. >> How can I record more than a minute with the Windows 98 and Windows XP >> Sound Voice rec [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > recorded.

Well, honey, you didn't ask about downloading an app; you asked about Sound Recorder that ships with windows. You asked for it...you got it. Life just sucks don't it? > How can I record more than a minute with the Windows 98 and Windows XP > Sound Voice recorders that ship with Windows? You can't without jumnping through some hoops. There is however a very good recorder called Audacity what will give you unlimited time and do lots more besides. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ No adware, spyware, probes; completely safe web site. HTH Pop` I have that one on my ibook. It looks like I may need to download it on my PC's as well. Its freeware and not of the same quality as a professional sound Editor, but it works. >> How can I record more than a minute with the Windows 98 and Windows XP >> Sound Voice recorders that ship with Windows?

I've been transferring my LP's to MP3 files and it works quite well. Audacity can even take a 78 rpm recording playing on a 33 rpm turntable and convert it to the correct speed with just a couple of clicks. Noise reduction, click and pop removal are all available.

Stick with mp3 and one's never stuck. > http://www.abyssmedia.com/mp3recorder/index.shtml >>>> I have that one on my ibook. It looks like I may need to download >>>> it on my PC's as well.

And I store everything in WMA/WMV format because it is so much smaller footprint. And they sell MP3 players and DVD players which handle WMA/WMV formats too. And since anybody with Windows can play them, no problems whatsoever. Only Mac andd Linux users would have a problem with them. But that is their problem. ;) SignatureBill > > I have that one on my ibook. It looks like I may need to download it on my > > PC's as well.

It still runs in Classic on my iBook, but its not OSX native, and since Classic is a non Unix based OS built for a different os and different hardware, I have had some issues with recording audio. But its got some essential features and effects that Audio city lacks. but for my PC laptop I may need to download this app. My PC Laptop is running Windows 98.

For an open source program, it is simply outstanding. Pop` > but for my PC laptop I may need to download this app. My PC Laptop is > running Windows 98. [] >> Audacity is excellent freeware.

[] Give GoldWave (including older versions - actually I'm not even sure the latest runs on '98) a look, too. Hi, you need to save a template (you only have to do it once).
