About this application
Sound Recorder is a GNOME application for making audio recordings on Linux. It is designed around a direct recording workflow: choose the input available to the desktop environment, start recording, stop when finished, and keep the resulting sound file for later playback or use in another program.
The program is maintained by The GNOME Project and is licensed under GPL-2.0-or-later. Its role is narrower than a full audio editor or digital audio workstation; it is intended for capturing speech, notes, samples, or other microphone input rather than arranging tracks or applying complex processing. It fits GNOME desktops especially well, while still being a Linux application within that ecosystem.
