Programs/Accessories/Entertainment/Sound Recorder) for this purpose.
This program can also be used to modify the sound files with certain audio
effects. Check the documentation in Windows for information on using
the various elements of this program. You can store such sound files in
one of three quality formats, which vary in the amount of disk space that
they use: Telephone Quality, Radio Quality, CD Quality (in order of
increasing quality and file size). You can access these controls by clicking
on File/Properties. High quality files of more than a few seconds in length
will consume a considerable amount of disk space. You should choose the
highest quality only when excellent sound quality is essential or disk space
is not at a premium. It might require some adjustment to get the desired
sound quality out of your microphone. For sound files that require excel-
lent sound quality, you should consider buying an external microphone
designed for high-quality voice recording (which can be connected to
your WinBook notebook through the microphone jack on the left side
of the system).
Wave files that you have recorded can be added to documents that support
OLE. Sounds embedded in a document will be played via the Windows
software when double-clicked in the document. Check your software docu-
mentation to determine if your software will support embedded sounds.
External Speakers & Microphone
The sound system is capable of providing high quality sound to external
speakers and receiving and processing sounds from an external microphone
or external sound source. To connect external speakers, follow the instruc-
tions provided with your speakers. When the speakers are connected, the
built-in speakers of your WinBook notebook will automatically be dis-
abled. An external microphone will disable the built-in microphone.
The Media Player can
be used to play sound
files, play audio CDs, and
run video clips or streaming
video from the Internet. For
information on playing video
on your system, see the
Windows documentation.
