Hello - Appassionata here with Saxlover. We are trying to record ourselves however only have a programme that can record 40 seconds worth at a time. Does anyone know of anyone sites where we can download a recording programme free of charge?

Thanks

Have you tried Audacity?

No we'll do a search!!

you can get it here

We've got it, thanks Nic.

Done some recording

you must send it to me!!!

NO!! haha

I have Cakewalk and Cool edit pro. Don't know about free downloads of them though.

Won't the Windows sound recorder do at a pinch? You may need to create a longer blank file as 60 seconds recording isn't enough! Once you have one and save it you can use it any time and save-as under the name of your tune.

Setting properties (File dropdown // format conversion // recording formats) to about 20,050kHz 8 bit stereo is quite good but you can set it more hi-fi if you need it. I think you can set it to MP3 if you don't like PCM which is just a way of digitally coding audio without compression.

I've got Audacity and although they are big files, they do work

so are we going to hear this recording?

Erm no!! You really wouldn't want to.

Have a look here for instructions on how to let Audacity save mp3 files

Goldwave also works.
