How Do I Use Microphones on Laptops?
- 1). Plug the microphone into the microphone jack. The jack is a small hole labeled with a microphone icon and it is usually on the front or the side of the laptop near the headphone jack.
- 2). Open "Sound Recorder." Do this by clicking on the "Start" button and typing "sound recorder" into the search box. Click the "Sound Recorder" search result that appears under the "Programs" section above the search bar. Sound Recorded opens in the center of your screen.
- 3). Click the "Start Recording" button. Talk into the microphone. Click "Stop" when finished. Select where you want to save the audio file in the input box that appears and click "Save."
