Sound activated recording software?

[DistantSignal]

I guys can anyone recommend any software that starts recording when it hears a sound and stops when it doesnt?

Cheers

Audacity does that. Free, open source and safe.

Do you have an iPad? If so try one of the record you when sleeping type apps..

All great suggestions guys. I'll give audacity a try. Thanks!

@gaga those apps are great have you used one for its intended purpose?

[radiogaga]

No - I used it when testing some DMR kit the other day, may leave it running tonight

Used this for many years, excellent bit software considering its 14/15 years old, very easy to use even time stamps for you

I recently tried the trial of RecAll-PRO and have to say it's easy and has what I need. Unfortunately it's not cheap and maybe I'll let it go after the trial.

On a Mac you have Audio Hijack Pro which does this really well...

Is that for Windows? Surely it can't even work with XP, let alone Vista/7/8 - the Windows audio driver model has completely changed since the year 2000... twice!
