Thread: Easiest way to record audio only for my website

What would be the easiest way to record audio only for my website? I was thinking of just having a 2 minute audio potential customers could listen too if they wanted to learn about my refinishing process.

I think any audio recorder will do the job, that said Microsoft recorder + mic or
some android app(if you have android phone) or iphone app will do just fine.

as far as play back for customers would it matter how I posted it? In other words should I use windows player format or would it matter. Because I am thinking the customer would choose the player on their end wouldn't they?

If you just link to an mp3 file it will open in the user's default audio player. A better solution would be to use an embedded player like JWPlayer because it gives basic start/pause/stop controls and the visitor stays on your page without their default player popping up.

vlc player can also be embedded, but JWPlayer is good [maybe also offer a download for potential customers to listen to offline?]

The simplest way is to connect a mic in your laptop and record an audio. If your voice is not very clear then you can also use an online program such as spokentext.net.
