    Anyone know of a good free program that can record sound that goes into the mic socket on a PC?

    Basically I want to record some game music by plugging a lead into the earphone socket and then into the mic on my PC.

    I would also have recommended Audacity, free and very capable sound editing and capture program. You could also use the PC's Sound recorder program which comes with Windows to record a .WAV file

    Creative WaveStudio is good too. It's a lot like Audacity. Only reason I switched was because I haven't bothered to get the CD out to re-install it  :P

    Tried that and it's crap as is limits the recording to 1 minute.

    There is a way around that limit

    Nope.

    We spoke about a program to record from Skype. This is not the same thing ;)
