How Exactly Can I Record Sound and Voice Using 3DS Capture
How Exactly Can I Record Sound and Voice Using 3DS Capture
Title says it all. Im brand new to recording footage and what not, so Id like to know exactly what is needed (and chime in for equipment brand preferences as well) to record the audio, and my voice with game play. Also, if you use a seperate program to record the voice if you could point me towards that program that would be great! A diagram of how everything works would be nice as well, and could be a nice reference for people interested in using the 3DS capture for uploading videos (although my initial thought was using it to play on my TV through my computer lol). Thanks!

Recording audio:
Equipment:
3.5 mm male to male audio cable, here is an example on Amazon that you should look for as they can be found in most stores that sell electronics.
Microphone or headset, I personally use a Logitech G930 headset, but any head set with a microphone or a standalone microphone should work.
To listen to audio from the 3DS over the Line In jack over your computer speakers, try
this:
1. Connect the audio device to your computer through the line in jack.
2. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Hardware and Sound, and then
click Sound.
3. Click the Recording tab (if it is not already selected), and then click
the line in in the list of recording devices.
4. Click Properties.
5. In the Line In Properties dialog box, click the Listen tab, and then
click the Listen to this device option.
Recording gameplay:
Programs:
I use a conjunction of XSplit and Fraps to record gameplay, Setting up background and 3DS screens in XSplit and then recording the preview window with Fraps.
You can download XSplit with limited features on their site, http://www.xsplit.com.
Fraps though costs $37 on their site, http://www.fraps.com.
Fraps records all of the audio coming from the microphone and 3DS.
There is other screen capturing software, but this is my personal preference of doing things.
If you need any more help or just clarification I would more than welcome to help.
