Well, as long as you are going to be at your computer the same time every day, there is a free audio editing program that you can download to accomplish this.  It's called Audacity and it is a free and open source application for recording and editing audio, get it here, http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/beta_windows if you want to export the recording as a MP3 you will also need to get the LAME MP3 encoder here, http://audacity.sourceforge.net/help/faq?s=install&item=lame-mp3\n\nTo record the radio program just select "What U Hear" from the source list in Audacity and hit record, once the show is over, stop it and you can edit it to your liking and export it in the format of your choice.\n\nThat is, if you are going to be at your computer.  If not I know of no free way to set up a timed recording and if you want to do that you will need to get the $45 RadioShark, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0001WW3F2/102-5427414-1229753?v=glance&n=172282

There are programs to do so, but if you're not there it can yoke up all your memory!\nYou can record manually through a media player with a phone modem active and specify it as the source.\n\nCan get a small device ( phone recording activator ) at lectronics store that turns on VOX equipment.

It's easier than you might think. Windows has a built in sound recorder that will do the job. You do need to get an adapter that will convert the audio output from your tape deck/record player (RCA style plugs) to a 1/8" stereo jack. you should be able to go to Radio Shack and get this for a few dollars. You then directly connect the audio out on your player or stereo to the line in jack on the back of your computer. Open Windows sound recorder. Push play on your tape deck and record on you computer. If you want to break up the tracks, you'll need to stop the tape and the recorder between songs. I think an easier way is to record it as one big file. Then use a sound editing program like Sony Sound Forge to chop it up. Also note that the Windows sound recorder save audio as a *.wav file which is very large compared with *.mp3. You'll want to have plenty of hard drive space available if you do many of these tapes/records. A good sound editing program should be able to do the conversion for you.

You need to plug your mic into your computer - if you have a decent mic you might need to convert the plug down to a 3.5mm jack.  You will need some decent ish audio recording software - sound recorder on windows will only do 60 seconds at a time.  Adboe audition is very good for this.  You then need to go to audio properties - right click on speaker icon by clock.  Go to recording properties and check that microphone is enabled.  Then away you go.

Yes it is! Try using a program like "All Sound Recorder" or something similar. There are all kinds of "What You Hear" type recorders out there and you can probably get the free trial to handle the sound you want to record. Hope this helps. :)

You could try Audio Hijack; the pro version can capture audio from any source.

A very basic recording studio needs several elements:\n1. microphone\n2. mixer\n3. recorder\n\nThere are oodles of variations on this simple setup, but if you have a microphone with a cable, mixer with a preamp, and a recorder, be it digital or analog, tape or hard drive, you can record.\n\nComputer recording is taking over like a storm, so that is definately an option to investigate. By getting a USB audio interface with a mic preamp built in, a microphone & cable, and [free] software, you can be setup for multi-track recording!\n\nA standalone recorder is another option, some have mic inputs already on them. To see an article on standalone recorder versus computer recording, see http://www.learn-recording.com/digital-recording.html\n\nFrom there, you have many options to upgrade, not the least of these is a good quality microphone.

like already said, plug it in the red port. Click on Start / Programs / Accessories / Entertainment / Audiorecorder. The Audio/Sound Recorder pop up. Press on the Record button (the one with the red dot) and say some words in the microphone. Press on the Stop button, then Rewind and then Play. When you can hear now your spoken words then it's ok ...... otherwise\n\nask a new question "how to configure a microphone"  ;-)))\n\nbut, it should work.

If you want to record the sound as it is being played you can use a trial version of SoundTap Streaming Audio Recorder 1.25 - download from http://www.download.com/SoundTap-Streaming-Audio-Recorder/3000-2168_4-10580128.html?tag=lst-0-5\n\nYou can search for many other recorders on www.download.com - search for RECORD SOUND PLAYED ON COMPUTER \n\nJust be sure to check limitations listed to make sure it doesn't have some nasty things like only 60 seconds of recording while using trial or saved disabled or junk like that. \n\nIt is good for recording audio streams too. \n\nIf you are wanting to have the file "grabbed" and converted you can try doing a search for audio converter followed by the type of file you want to convert and type you want it converted to (ex: audio converter midi to mp3

If you have sound playing on your computer (ie. a music track, or from the internet, anything.) then you can record that with windows recorder while it's playing.\n\nIf you want to record something external to your computer, you will need a microphone.  You can buy leads to connect external sources to your computer but it's best go to a computer shop to explain exactly what you're trying to do.\n\nHope this helps
