Windows 10: Voice Recorder playback problem

I made a long recording over an hour on Voice Recorder, but when I go to play it back, it stops after about 5 minutes, and goes back to 0.00. If I try to start the recording after that 5 minute stopping point, nothing happens, except that it flips back to 0:00 after a couple seconds. The screen seemed to show that the recording was on the whole time. Is there a chance the whole recording is in there somewhere?I'm in Windows 10.

Voice Recorder Flags Disappeared

Hi,

I realize the problem you are facing with the voice recorder.

To assist you better, please answer the below:

• 
  Are you using windows built-in voice recorder or any other 3rd party voice recorder application?
  
• 
  If you are using Build in Windows recorder, how did you put the flag?
  

If you are using built-in Windows recorder, there is no option to put a flag on recorded voice. Provide us the screenshot of recording interface with Flag.

Refer the steps given in the below link to provide us screenshots:

In case if you are using any 3rd party recorder, then I suggest you to contact the developer of the application for further help.

Thank you.

How can I record playback audio and mic?

I've actually managed to my problem, just by Googling...after finally figuring out what to Google.


Problem: Using Audicity, I wanted to record audio of myself singing karaoke. Sound inputs

• YouTube video playing from Google Chrome
• G933 Logitech Headset (or any USB mic for that matter)

Two applications required for this. Download these two apps. When installing, make sure you Run As Administrator for each. Install each app, then reboot your PC.

• Virtual Audio Cable - Allows you to record computer audio
• VoiceMeeter Banana - Mixes two (possibly more) sound Inputs as one, which ends up being your Recording device for Audacity.

In Windows 10

1. Go to Control Panel>Sounds>Playback and Set CABLE Input as your Default Playback device. Verify that you now have these three additional Playback Devices:

• CABLE Output
  
• VoiceMeeter Aux Output
  
• VoiceMeeter Output

1. Go to the Recording tab and Set CABLE Output as your Default Recording device. Verify that you now have these three additional Recording Devices:

• CABLE Output
• VoiceMeeter Aux Output
• VoiceMeeter Output

In Audacity (Preferences>Settings>Devices):

• Host: MME
• Playback Device: VoiceMeeter Input (VB-Audio Voi
• Recording Device: VoiceMeeter Output (VB-Audio Vo
• Channels: 2 (Stereo)

Open Voice Meeter Banana (use the Search box next to the Start button) and change these settings:

• HARDWARE INPUT 1: MME: CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual
• HARDWARE INPUT 2: MME: Set it to your desired microphone. I used Microphone Logitech G933 Gaming). For this hardware input, select A1 to deselect it. Otherwise, you will hear your voice playing through your Speakers/Headset.
• HARDWARE OUT: Click A1 and select MME: <your output device>. In my case, MME: Speakers (Logitech G933 Gaming)

To test: Go to Youtube, find a video to play. Go to Audacity. Click Record, then go back to your YouTube video and click play. You should see the sound meter go up and down, in accordance to the track you're playing. Additionally if you speak, you will see your mic's meter rise and fall, as well. Stop the recording when finished. Note that to hear the newly recorded track's audio, you may have to change your Playback sound to your desired device. It i also important to note to reset your Playback device once exiting VoiceMeeter Banana, to your desired audio output device. This can be done by selecting the sound button on your System Tray.
