Audio Recorder Application in Java - Source Code and Executable File

java audio recorder, sound recorder
Here, we will see how to record sound in java. We make a sound recorder application which can record from microphone, Stereo mix, line in, system audio etc. In the program, we use the Java Sound API. The java sound API allows to record audio in different sample rates starting from 8KHz. It also allows to record audio as stereo or mono. It supports audio formats like wave, au, AIFF etc.

In our program, we list all the available mixers in a JComboBox. And auto detects supported audio formats. The user can select from a list of available sample rates, sample bit sizes and audio file formats. I am embedding the code here. To download the executable file (jar) or project source, you can use the following links.
