How do I know if my microphone is good enough for recording?
Look for a clear, responsive waveform when you speak. If you see constant noise even in silence, your environment or mic may need quieter surroundings before you record.
Does this mic test record any audio?
No. Audio input is visualized only. Nothing is recorded or uploaded.
