Try audicity for basic recording. You can get it from www.filehippo.com

Subject: [Ham-Computers] Audio Software for recording signals?

For many years I have used Voyetra Windat Audio Station by Turtle Beach.  It 
is very, very basic, it records and plays back .wav files and has some midi 
options I have never used.  The version I have is 1.2 or 1.4 from 1993 or 
1994.  The original computer it was on has since died and I copied the 
entire directory to a set of floppies, then a CD and have managed to copy 
and paste and have it work without problems through Windows 3.11, 95 and 
98SE.  Now I've upgraded to XP Home Edition, build 2600, SP2.  When I 
installed XP, I chose the FAT32 file system since that is what I am familiar 
with and, fortunately, most all older software has installed and functioned 
without a hitch on this system, unlike the XYL's NTSF system that won't have 
anyhting to do with old software!

For whatever reason, my audio software, which I use for recording radio, 
mostly HF, doesn't want to work when I just drag and drop it into a folder 
as I have done in the past with every other computer and OS.  When run, it 
complains about "no mixer", which is odd, because I am looking at it as I 
type this and the hardware hasn't changed in nearly a decade, just the OS's.

I did find a setup program on my disk, but it's looking for the original 
floppy drive from a Packard Bell 33 MHz 80486 and won't allow me to change 
to the CD I have it burned on.

What I am hoping to find is an older version of this software, maybe as 
recent as "AudioStation 32", somethign that isn't a resource hog and will 
provide me with the basic recording and editing functions I have used for 
some 16 years.

I've checked ebay and amazon and found references to AudioStation, 
AudioStation32, Recording Studio and Audio Surgeon, but nothing readily 
available.

Does someone out there have some of this older software I could barrow/buy 
and see if I can get this program running on my system?
