The well-designed, logically arranged interface lists all your options in the left pane. Internet Radio Recorder provides a large number of streaming audio stations in a variety of genres from hip-hop to classical, but you can use the built-in search tool to find even more. You will of course get a utility for scheduling recordings, and you'll also get a separate tool for capturing audio from a CD player, a microphone, or a line-in jack. Even if this application were limited to recording, we'd still be quite delighted, but its bonus features really make it shine. Internet Radio Recorder provides a conversion utility that can transform files among popular formats such as WAV, OGG, MP3, and WMA. The program also supplies a CD burner, a basic audio editor, and a polished media player that looks just like an old-school radio console.

Version 6.71 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.Editor's review of i-Sound WMA MP3 Recorder Professional Although this audio-recording utility fails to trump some competitors in terms of fancy editing features, it still handles its main job with no problem. The well-designed interface is both easy on the eyes and a snap to use. Clicking the Setting button lets you choose your preferred audio codec and set parameters such as bit rate, sample rate, and VBR compression. Upon launch, iSound WMA MP3 Recorder Professional prompts you to select from a number of recording sources, including line-in, CD player, and microphone. We also appreciated the ability to adjust the incoming signal level from directly within the application. We especially liked the voice-activation feature, which stops recording after a specified amount of silence and restarts upon detecting any sound, making this application ideal for voice recording or slicing an LP into separate tracks. The scheduling feature will be a boon to fans of Internet radio programs, and the ID3 tag editor is a handy addition. The newest version of this application lets you split files by entering a stop time. The biggest downside here is the trial version's measly 100-second recording restriction. That complaint aside, we think a wide variety of folks will find a lot to like about iSound WMA MP3 Recorder Professional.

Version 6.3 build 63070103 brings full compatibility with Vista's Sound and Volume Mixer dialogs.Editor's review of Audio Notes Recorder Voice recording made easy Closely resembling its analog inspiration, Audio Notes Recorder will seem familiar to anyone who has ever used a microcassette recorder. The faithful details in the interface charmed us. For example, when you save a file, the cassette lid opens as if you're removing the tape. If you don't care for the default look, you will find several other skins that completely change the design. The program offers three recording methods, including one you activate with your voice. Clicking the Settings tab lets you set the recording level and access the microphone-noise-suppression feature, which should help improve the quality of your audio notes. The program includes a simple audio editor that can split recordings and cut off fragments. We'd recommend Audio Notes Recorder for those seeking a more modern version of the good old handheld recorder.

You then can listen to the recorded audio whenever you want. You can even save songs or programs, and you can program Skado to record a specific radio program at a specific time. Version 2006.7.9 includes enhancements and bug fixes.Editor's review of Skado A few performance issues aside, we generally like what this audio recorder has to offer. Skado's cleverly designed main interface mimics a remote control and provides icons for accessing all the program's options and actions. One of this application's nicest aspects is that it automatically detects any audio that's playing on your PC and immediately begins recording it as a WAV, WMA, or MP3 file at your specified quality level. Unfortunately, in some tests, Skado caused our default jukebox program to skip while it was playing tunes, which resulted in a poor-quality recording. The app also lets you record from sources such as a CD player or a line-in jack and supplies a scheduling feature, perfect for streaming-audio fans. The latter folks especially will appreciate a built-in splitting utility for dicing long programs into songs or segments. So long as you don't frequently encounter the audio-skipping glitch we noticed, Skado makes a flexible recording option.

All Recorder can record sound from microphones and line-in audio, streaming audio from the Internet, and audio from Winamp, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, RealPlayer, Flash, and games.

With All Recorder, you can import and modify sound with special effects, such as Fade In, Fade Out, Normalize, Scale, and Squeeze Silence. You can review and edit all your files in the history list with several clicks. With a long-term recording task, use the autosplit function to split music files into smaller ones. The Voice Activated Recording system is now supported for skipping silence. You can also control recording through the tray icon; all you need to do is double-click the system-tray icon. Version 3.3.6 changes some default value of SWF parameters.Editor's review of All Recorder Though we don't consider this program a full-fledged recording suite, All Recorder nonetheless possesses enough editing features to warrant consideration. With cryptic-looking icons for actions bordering the recording-status window, the interface looks more confusing than it is. However, we do think it's convenient that you can simply click the program's system-tray icon to quickly start capturing audio. You can record incoming audio from a variety of sources--including a line-in jack and a microphone--to MP3, WAV, WMA, and OGG formats. The recording capabilities are rather modest, letting you schedule stops and starts, change the bit and sample rates, and letting you adjust the incoming signal strength. The built-in editing functions will be sufficient for nonprofessional use, letting you trim tracks, fade in and out, insert silence, and normalize files. You'll also get some basic audio effects such as echo, delay, reverb, and tremolo, though you can't tweak their settings to your liking. You can edit or add effects both to your own recordings and to any preexisting audio files on your PC. Our only real problem is with the trial version's 30-second recording restriction. Even without its recording functions, All Recorder could stand on its editing features alone, making it a safe bet for most home users.

Version 2.25/A has a French translation.Editor's review of StationRipper Once you've experienced Internet radio, you may never go back to FM. Think about it: high audio quality and tons of content, without any advertising for antifungal foot powder. Programs such as StationRipper are the cherry on this ice cream sundae of audio bliss. Like the legendary Streamripper, StationRipper monitors Shoutcast Internet radio streams and saves individual tracks as MP3s. Just point it to your favorite station, specify a destination directory, and set it loose. If you don't know any Internet radio stations, no problem: StationRipper pulls a list from the Shoutcast Web site. You can set it to detect and record songs by title or artist. It also can record hundreds of streams simultaneously and skip already downloaded files. The interface, unfortunately, is cluttered with Google ads and is rather confusing. We also encountered some cryptic error messages. Nevertheless, once we got the hang of StationRipper, we generally found it easy to use. It's a great way to shift your favorite Internet broadcast onto your iPod for your morning commute.

The program can facilitate voice activation and silence detection, and has a track splitter and a scheduler. It also supports powerful scheduled recordings, an amplification effect, and various shortcuts features.Version 2.93 build 2932 supports VOC, AU, AIF audio file formats, and fixes bugs.Editor's review of Any Sound Recorder This utility offers a simple solution for recording, editing, and converting audio files, though the trial version's limitations may scare off some folks. The interface is reminiscent of many similar applications, with multiple icons surrounding the large waveform view in the main window. If you don't care for the default color scheme, you can customize one that's more to your liking. You can choose to record files in formats such as MP3, OGG, WAV, and AIFF, and Any Sound Recorder lets you set the bit rate and compress files in VBR mode. The program can optimize the recording process for such sources as a microphone, a CD player, or a line-in signal, and the voice-activation feature will be useful to those who plan to record memos. The scheduling feature lets you record multiple Internet radio transmissions. As an audio editor, this program is somewhat limited, only offering basic effects for fading, inverting, reverting, normalizing, and applying an echo feature. However, this program's biggest downfall is its 60-second trial limitation, which might limit its usefulness in certain scenarios. If that doesn't bother you and you don't need fancy effects or filters, you'll find Any Sound Recorder a decent choice.

StepVoice Recorder is real-time recording software with support for the MP3 file format. It allows recording from any sound source, such as microphone, line-in, or any sounds currently playing on your PC (such as Internet radio or movie sounds). Real-time MP3 encoding saves hard-disk space and time, because you don't need to encode recorded sounds later; this feature is critical for longer recordings. A wide range of MP3 bit-rate settings allows you to vary the sound quality from telephone (3.5MB to 7.0MB per hour) to CD (1.0MB to 2.0MB per minute). With recording visualization, you can easily adjust the volume level to get the best results.Editor's review of StepVoice Recorder This simple recording program lacks some key features, but its generous trial restriction helps keep it in the running. StepVoice Recorder's rather mundane, nonresizable interface isn't likely to blow anyone's mind, but it's quite easy to use and displays two prominent level meters to ensure your recordings don't end up distorted. Though many recording applications offer presets for sources such as a CD player, a microphone, or a line-in jack, this program makes you adjust signal strength via Windows' built-in audio controls. However, we're glad it provides buttons for quickly accessing these settings. StepVoice Recorder can only capture files in the MP3 format, but at least it lets you configure the audio quality. In our tests, the program did a fine job of recording a Net radio stream, but it's a shame the app doesn't include a scheduler or a silence-detection tool for automatically dicing up tracks. We also missed a voice-activation feature. Still, unlike many of its competitors, this utility lets you record as many tracks as you want for a full 30 days. Folks seeking a basic, functional recording app should definitely consider this option.

Live Sound Recorder records your computer's audio streaming into WAV and MP3 formats. It supports recording from a wide variety of audio sources, including your PC's line-in jack, a microphone, Internet audio streams, and streaming-audio applications, such as Winamp, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, RealPlayer, Flash, and games.Editor's review of Live Sound Recorder Though it suffers from a few quirks and restrictive trial limitations, Live Sound Recorder does a good job of recording from a wide variety of audio sources, including your PC's line-in jack, a microphone, and streaming-audio applications. The interface doesn't look very professional, but it's functional. Clicking the settings icon lets you specify the recording source, sound quality, and input level. We especially appreciated the latter ability, as many apps force you to adjust the incoming signal via Windows' Control panel. Though the program claims to record to both the WAV and MP3 formats, we couldn't figure out how to directly create an MP3 from the audio source, forcing us to use the app's built-in converter to switch file formats. Capturing a RealPlayer stream worked well in our tests, as did making a voice recording with a microphone. The demo disables scheduling and restricts you to 60 seconds per file, but it might give you enough of an idea how the program works. Fans of Internet radio shows or other streaming-audio broadcasts may find Live Sound Recorder useful.

Anewsoft MP3 Recorder is audio-recording software that can record audio from your computer to files of MP3 or WAV format. You can record sound from a microphone, streaming audio from the Internet, or music played by Winamp, Windows Media Player, QuickTime, RealPlayer, Flash, or games. The program supports recording to MP3s directly and can produce CD-quality recordings. It supports advanced setting adjustments including frequency, mono/stereo sound, and bit rate. It has a real-time oscilloscope and supports five type of wave patterns. It has a built-in audio player and integrates a complete set of volume controls. Direct-to-disk functionality makes the recording as long as your like. The program can save each recording automatically, and it supports a simple recording schedule so you can start and stop at any time. It supports hot keys and recording-file length limitations, and it has an easy-to-use interface.Editor's review of Anewsoft MP3 Recorder Basically a souped-up version of Windows' built-in sound recorder, Anewsoft MP3 Recorder still offers enough extras to be worth the time. This utility encodes MP3s and WAVs on the fly from a variety of sources such as a microphone, a CD player, or a telephone. The space-efficient interface is straightforward and features small icons for accessing just about every function. Anewsoft MP3 Recorder can encode VBR MP3s, which allows you to achieve better audio quality in a smaller file. You'll find an ID3 editor, faders for adjusting the incoming audio signal, and a scheduler. The latter can be especially useful for recording Internet audio streams, although we wished the program featured a voice-activation feature for easy memo taking. In our tests, the sound quality was decent, but we were still glad to find settings for adjusting audio quality and bit rate. When all is said and done, the only real bummer here is the 30-second trial restriction on recordings. Anewsoft MP3 Recorder will especially suit users who want to digitize their old LPs and tapes.

Ease MP3 Recorder makes a complete recording studio of your computer. You can record your own music, voice, or any other sounds you hear, such as a voice from a microphone, Webcasts, games, or music played by Winamp, Windows Media Player, Web TV, RealPlayer, or Flash. The sound quality is excellent and can sound even better than the original, since Ease MP3 Recorder reduces noise.Editor's review of Ease MP3 Recorder Eclipsing the standard Windows recorder with a multitude of output formats, Ease MP3 Recorder also is easier on the eyes than Windows. Here you have a choice of 14 compressed formats including MP3, OGG, and WMA. MP3 settings include VBR support and noise filters. You won't find advanced functions such as voice activation and scheduling, though. The interface is quite stylish and offers several skins that are different in design as well as in color. Unfortunately, no controls or a recording volume indicator appear in all this luxury, and the trial version only records for 40 seconds. The program is sufficient for digitizing cassettes and LPs.

Streamsicle is a streaming mp3 server with a built-in web server. You and your friends can request songs from the server with your web browser while listening to the stream. We use it at the office as a company-wide jukebox for all our MP3s but it also works over the internet. Version 2.0 has a much nicer interface (see screenshot) and support for very large song collections.
