Free PC Audio Recorder

Free PC Audio Recorder is a beginner-friendly audio recorder developed by Cok Free Software.

This lightweight and also highly reliable app can detect audio inputs from various sources on desktop and laptop PCs, such as Mic-in audio from integrated or standalone sound cards, online VoIP audio stream from popular voice chat apps such as Skype, Yahoo Messenger, GTalk, and many others, microphone feed from USB audio card, the system audio from PC sound card, in-and-out voices on your computer, and built-in microphones in webcams.

To record audio from those sources, users simply have to fire up this app and press a single button.

The user interface of Free PC Audio Recorder is as simple as it gets. A small app window showcases just a simple recording timer, Start/Pause/Stop buttons, a View Log function, and two audio volume bars for microphone and speaker streams.

The app does not support any advanced tools and services that some other applications may offer (such as built-in audio trimming and editing tools).

The app even does not support the option for picking the quality of the recorded volume – it simply automatically records everything in high-quality uncompressed WAV that can be then imported into other audio editing tools. By sticking with this single audio quality preset, creator of this app has enabled users to always have the ability to use their recording not only for home or school projects but also for professional projects where quality is paramount.

The entire app is distributed online in a 1MB installer file that requires the user only to follow a few simple on-screen instructions. Once installed, the app will also provide the user with an automated uninstaller.

Even though Free PC Audio Recorder is so lightweight that it may look like it is suitable only for beginners or users who just want to record their PC’s microphone and speaker feeds without hassle, the app should be praised for its stability, high-quality recordings, and the fact that it is offered to everyone without premium payment and with no advertisements, in-app unlocks, subscriptions or even in-app ads.

Free PC Audio Recorder is 100% FREE and can be used without restrictions not only on modern versions of Windows OS (such as Windows 7, 8, and 10) but also on legacy versions such as Windows Millennium Edition and Windows 2000.
