Need an MP3 Recording software

Looking for software to record AUDIO on my computer(i need something that can record teamspeak audio for voice acting)

preferably free, but i can pay a little bit.

i don't want to record any video i already have that sorted

 

Teamspeak has a recording feature built into it. What kind of computer do you have?

 

win7

 

well like i said you can use teamspeak which will be the easiest if you're trying to record people's voices who won't be in the same room as you. the issue is you won't be able to record separate files for each user, so, if you're recording other people make sure you mute your mic so you are only hearing the audio from them. and make sure when you're recording yourself that anyone else in the room mutes their mics. all audio would be on the same track and then you'd have to splice it and time it to your video by dubbing it over. the other issue you will run into with recording with teamspeak is that you'll each have different quality mics and it won't sound consistent.

otherwise audacity is free but it's a little tinny especially if you don't really know how to work with software. and without getting complicated, everyone has to be in the same room to record it.

 

alright, i'll try teamspeak's built in thing. do you know any good tutorials on how to use it? or can you tell me really quickly?

 

Tools > Record > pick a location to save the file > do your recording

to stop recording

Tools > Stop Recording

it'll save in the location you chose. i dont remember the file type, but any .wav, .mp3, . mp4, .aif etc should go into any video software just fine.

 

thanks! i'll try it out in a bit

 

if it doesn't work and if you're on a mac, try using quicktime pro. i used it to record a teamspeak conversation.

 

yeah i knew about quicktime but since i'm on windows i'd rather not pay $30 for something i wouldn't use too frequently...

 

I did say IF you have a mac. I'm not going to tell you to spend 30$ for software that only has a couple of features. You do what you like!
