For few days I've been trying to find a voice recorder, but I'm frustrated.
Skype working fine and alsamixer
I'm using pulseaudio.
When I open the below softwares, my microphone stops working, even skype doesn't work. I only hear noise. If I uninstall the softwares and reset pulseaudio it becomes normal again.
Tried Audacity — I hear noise only.
Tried audio-recorder — Recording but lots of noise.
I need a good working software to record voice.
Need help.
