How do I record audio in visual studio.net 2005 (visual basic). Looking through the help there are about 5 different services that can be used to theoretically record sound (from a microphone). It may seem unbelievable, but after searching the help on all of these services I still do I still not know how to record audio with any one of them! Actually I can't even find class libraries for most of them.
My main requirement is pretty simple, just prompt the user to speak a phrase and record that phrase. My other requirements, which may require more work, are that I would like to be able to cut the silence from either side of the recording, and also save it in a compressed format (eg. mp3). And a third more advanced requirement, which would be nice to have, but since I can't even record sound I'm prepared to pass on, would be to to split a sound file into separate individual sound bites (based on the volume dropping below a certain level for a few seconds between sound bites).
