All Sound Recorder XP

All Sound Recorder XP is a sound recording tool that supports multiple audio sources and can save the output content in multiple formats.

While the interface seems a bit complicated, the application provides great customization features, allowing you to set up a new recording with just a few clicks.

Although the whole process can be performed manually, All Sound Recorder XP also comprises a comprehensive wizard that guides users throughout the whole process.

You are prompted to choose the output device and the sound source, set the source volume, pick the recording format and the file name and you're ready to go. You can use any of the following formats for the saved recordings: WAV, MP3, WMA or OGG.

An advantage is that the program offers detailed settings for each of the aforementioned formats, so for instance, you can set up the sampling rate, channel mode, encoding mode, quality preset, bitrate, frequency and some other parameters, obviously depending on the extension you choose.

Last but not least, All Sound Recorder XP also comes with a separate scheduler that makes it possible to configure the application to automatically start and stop new recordings in any of the aforementioned formats.

It's more or less obvious that you don't need a super computer to run All Sound Recorder XP, so the application remains very friendly with hardware resources even when creating a new recording.

All things considered, the program is quite a handy way to record from various sources, from sound cards, CDs or DVDs to microphones or telephones. A major makeover to the interface could turn it into a top product.
