Recording audio
After you've added some videos and photos to the Timeline, you can record audio from a microphone or any other recording device.
Step 1: Set up recording
1. On the toolbar, click the microphone button to open audio recording options.
2. In the Audio device box, choose the device you want to use.
To record from a microphone: choose your preferred microphone or webcam microphone. If you don't see the device in the list, try reconnecting it to your computer.
To record audio from the computer: select Stereo Mix from the list. This will allow you to record any music, alerts, or other sounds playing on your computer.
3. Set the volume level you want to use in your project.
4. On the Timeline, place the progress marker to where you want the recording to begin.
Step 2: Record sound
1. When you're ready, click Start Recording. You will be given a 5-second countdown.
2. The video will start playing simultaneously with the recording. This way, if you're recording a voice-over, you will be able to use the video as a visual aid as you speak.
3. When you're done, click Stop Recording. The recorded audio clip will already be on the Timeline, as a linked audio clip.
