VOVSOFT - Sound Recorder

There are a lot of people who use their computers to create presentations, tutorials and the like, so they need to record themselves speaking, then embed the result in their project.

VOVSOFT - Sound Recorder is one of the tools that can come in handy in these situations, and more.

The main window of the application is not only simplistic, but also minimalist, as the GUI only features the Start and Stop buttons, along with a slider for adjusting the microphone volume.

This no-frills approach is meant to encourage even those without any technical skills whatsoever to start recording their microphone activity.

It goes without saying that you need to connect a microphone to your computer to be able to enjoy this functionality provided by VOVSOFT - Sound Recorder.

Alternatively, you can capture the music or sounds played by your computer, even if you do not have your speakers connected to the machine.

However, you cannot pause the recording and resume it at a later time, nor can you trim its length afterwards, to keep only the most relevant parts. You need to find a specialized audio editor to perform these tasks.

The most important shortcoming of this application is the fact that you have no possibility to choose the format of the recorded audio file. You can only export it as a WAV file, so you need yet another dedicated tool if you are looking to convert it to a different format.

In a nutshell, VOVSOFT - Sound Recorder can come in handy when you are only interested in quickly capturing the sounds of your microphone or the music played by your PC. There is hardly any room for customization, yet this might be considered a bonus for novices.
