Simple things that get the job done are often a better choice than complicated tools. This could have been what the developer of MooO VoiceRecorder had in mind during the development of the sound recorder for the Windows operating system. The program is basically a one-click type of program with some extra configuration options in the package.
The voice recorder needs to be installed before it can be used. You should pay attention to the installation dialog as third party software might be installed otherwise (it is automatically selected).
When you start the sound recorder for the first time you see the following basic but fully functional interface.
You can click on the Start Recording button immediately if the default settings are to your liking. The following settings are available:
- Folder: Select the directory where the voice recordings are saved to.
- File Name: Pick a generic name and a file extension for the recording. Supported audio files are mp3 and wav.
- Misc: Options to cut silence and to overwrite previous recordings.
- Sound Source: Only voice, only PC sound or both. Boost option.
Instructions are displayed if the voice and PC sound recording option is selected. Changes to the system’s sound configuration need to be made to enable recording those sounds on the PC.
The real beauty of MooO VoiceRecorder besides its simplicity is the ability to record all kinds of system sounds. You can use it to record your own voice, a Skype voice chat, an Internet radio stream, video playing on the Internet and everything else that makes a noise.
Advanced users may prefer an advanced sound recorder and editor like Audacity, which gives them more control over the recording, and editing features that this program lacks. MooO VoiceRecorder is on the other hand the perfect solution for quick recordings that need no editing or filtering.
Interested users can download the program from the developer website. The software is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit editions of the Windows operating system. An alternative is the previously reviewed Mp3 Voice Recorder which offers a similar functionality.

Thank you for suggesting this tool.
The interface looks 90′s.
I do not really mind if the functionality is excellent.
