Recording from microphone

[Olaf Baeyens]

What is the best way to record from a microphone or line in in a unmanaged
C++ program?

I found a C# sample using DirectSound but we prefer an unmanaged C++ version
with no need of .NET.

Many thanks
Olaf

You ought to post again in the multimedia group:

microsoft.public.win32.programmer.mmedia

On your way over you can take a look at the ancient waveform audio API -
waveInOpen(), waveInPrepareHeader(), waveInAddBuffer() etc. That technique
has worked for as long a time as there has been audio support in Windows.

Currently that is what we are trying now.
But I am wondering if the .NET 2.0 has any direct support for recording
sound?

Thanks for the repy :-)
