Calls from computer free online

You don’t need any specialized hardware to record a phone call, Skype conversation, or any sort of other voice chat. All you need is the right software and a few minutes setting it up ahead of time.

Bear in mind that recording a phone call without the other participant’s knowledge is illegal in certain locations. This just means you have to inform the other participant that you’re recording the call when you begin speaking.

Record Your Computer’s Audio

If you’re having the voice chat on your computer with any voice-conversation program — from Skype to Gmail’s call-any-phone feature — you can record it like you would any other audio on your computer.

Many sound drivers offer a “Stereo Mix” mixer that provides all the audio in your computer — the sound coming out of your speakers or headphones as well as the sound going into it with our microphone. All you have to do is record the Stereo Mix mixer for the duration of the call.

First, you’ll need to enable the Stereo Mix mixer, which is usually disabled by default. Follow our guide to enabling Stereo Mix in Windows 7 or 8. You can then open the microphone device’s properties and enable the “Listen to Device” option. You’ll hear yourself talking in your own headphones as you speak into your microphone, however, this will also allow you to easily record your own speech along with the other person’s speech just by recording the Stereo Mix channel.
