You can click “Windows Mixer” button to adjust the recording volume and recording balance. If the volume is too low, you can see only very small variations in the wave pattern. If the sound is being clipped off because the volume is too high, move the volume setting down until most of the volume range is displayed without clipping. Set a specific time by clicking “Timer Record” to automatically start recording. You also have the power to record without silence.
