A few straight answers.
Whole browsers, protected audio, microphone recording. The details matter.
Read all FAQsCan I record a single browser tab?
No. The whole browser is recorded, including its tabs and windows. Pause or mute unwanted tabs before recording, or play the audio in a separate browser and select that browser.
Can protected audio be recorded?
DRM-protected audio cannot be recorded and may come out silent. Use the built-in 5-second test take before a long session to check your source. Record only audio you have the right to record.
What is Pre-record?
Pre-record keeps a rolling buffer of the last 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes or 3 minutes of your selected apps in memory. Press Record to include that buffered audio at the start. Press Ctrl+Alt+M to save the buffer and the next 3 seconds as a standalone clip. It must already be enabled; it cannot recover earlier audio.
Can I record my own voice too?
Yes. Turn on My microphone. Your voice can be saved to its own file and is included in the mixed file when you create one. You can set separate app and microphone volumes in the mix. Use headphones to avoid recording your speakers through the microphone.
Does it record one app or the whole computer?
Only the apps you pick. Record one app or select several with Ctrl+click. There is also an inverse mode to record everything except one app. That inverse mode does include system sounds.
Your apps. Your audio. Your files.
Try every feature for 7 days. Then buy once, keep recording.
