Under Microphone, go ahead and try your voice on the Mic to test if it is recording your voice properly. Click on Start Recording to do so
Note: Record your voice for less than or equal to 10 seconds. The recorder automatically stops after completing 1o seconds. Make sure your voice is clear and audible.
