If you downloaded the Bandikam program from the official website, installed it, and started recording video from the monitor, but upon completion of the recording, you found that no sound was recorded along with the video, then you got where you need to.
In the article, we will talk about how to set up sound in the Bandicam. In addition to detailed instructions, we will also tell you how to improve the quality of the recorded sound, which at times will help to improve the quality of the video itself. So let's get started.
Turn on the sound in the program
For some reason, in the standard setting of the program, in the one that stands immediately after installation, the audio recording option is disabled . It is this factor that knocks down novice users on the path to recording quality content. As you might guess, all we need to do is enable this option. However, this may not be enough, and the problem may lie elsewhere, but first things first.
So how to set up the sound in Bandicam? The first thing you need to do is open the program itself. Next, on the "Video" tab, find the button with the name "Settings", but there are two of them, select the one on the top in the "Record" column.
After you clicked on it, a window should appear in front of you called "Record Setup". In it, go to the first tab - "Sound". It is on it that the sound is adjusted both from the system and from the devices.
First of all, check the box next to "Record sound." Due to the fact that this option was disabled, you could not hear the sound in the captured video. In general, this is enough for the sound to appear, but just in case, let's carry out a full sound adjustment.
In the field "Primary device" there is a drop-down list, open it. You should see a list with all the playback devices connected to the computer. You need to choose the name of your columns. If you did not find them there, then select Win7 Sound (WASAPI). Now, while recording video, the system sound will also be recorded.
Turn on the microphone
If you want the recording to go from your microphone as well, you need to pay attention to the lower drop-down list. There, select the name of your microphone. After that, you can safely press the "OK" button and start recording video.
Now you know how to tune the sound in Bandicam. Well, now let's talk how to improve this very sound.
Improving the quality of the recorded sound
If you learned how to adjust the sound in the Bandicam, but as a result you were unsatisfied with its quality, then now we will tell you how to improve it.
The list of ongoing activities is small, since there is only one essence, you need to put maximum marks on all settings that somehow relate to sound.
In the "Video" tab, click "Settings" in the "Format" column and in the "Sound" field, set the maximum frequency and bitrate values. It is these indicators that are responsible for the quality of the recorded sound.
Well, that’s all, now you know absolutely everything about how to adjust the sound in the “Bandicam”.
