#One note recorder not recording software#

So I'm dropping a note into as many OneNote forums as I can find to try and raise awareness. I think that could be because a lot of people either don't know they can record audio or they don't realise how useful it is. On the User Voice site for OneNote the problem doesn't seem to get enough votes to get Microsoft's attention.

#One note recorder not recording software#

I've seen a few suggestions that outline how you can hack your audio settings to do this, but I have other software that has no difficulty recording from both a microphone and system audio, so it must be possible without complex hacks. The sound from other participants on the call won't get recorded. So if you record audio while taking notes on a Skype call, only your microphone will be recorded. Your notes become an index to the audio.īut for some reason, OneNote still won't record system audio. And because it syncs with your writing or typing, you can go straight to the right part of the audio without listening to the whole thing.

You can go back to a meeting from a year ago, and if your notes aren't clear, you can hear what was actually said. So you can go to the notes of a past meeting, click next to something you wrote or typed, and hear what was said at that time. I did find the following link with a work around which works, but there is still no permanent fix from what I can tell. If a record an audio file and then play it, it works fine. If I add an audio file into OneNote it cannot be played. OneNote can record audio from your computer's microphone and sync it with your typing or handwriting. Currently running OneNote for Office 365.
