Note
Before recording from the external CD-ROM drive to the internal hard disk
drive, disable the internal microphone. To disable the internal microphone, remove the
check from the Microphone box in the 'Show the following controls' window. Refer to the
instructions in the section earlier in this chapter, "Optimizing the Sound Quality," for
more details.
Microphone
You can capture and record sounds through the internal microphone on the NEC Versa
or through an external microphone that connects to the system through the microphone
port. You can record voice-overs for narration, reminders, or special instructions. See
“Recording,” explained earlier in this chapter, for details about recording sound with
the microphone.
Mixing
With the Microsoft Sound Recorder on your NEC Versa, you can mix data from two
separate wave files to create a new sound file. You can also mix the microphone
volume to create soft background sounds to accompany a voice-over or another more
prominent sound. Mixing lets you blend digital and MIDI audio files to get the final,
high-quality soundtrack you want.
See the online help that is available with the Sound Recorder for more information.
Playing Back
You can play back your recorded soundtrack through stereo headphones, the internal
NEC Versa stereo speakers, or external stereo speakers. You can play .wav and .mid
files as well as CD audio. Adjust the volume through the software or with the
Fn-F10
/
Fn-F11
function keys.

Windows Media player option in Accessories. You can also play audio through the
