Three Tools for Making Short Audio Recordings – No Accounts Required

There are three tools that I typically recommend to those who are looking to just record short spoken audio tracks and don’t require additional editing functions. Those three tools are Vocaroo, Online Voice Recorder, and Twisted Wave.

All three of these tools don’t require students to have email addresses or create any kind of account in order to make a short audio recording then download it as an MP3.

Vocaroo
I’ve been using Vocaroo for more than a decade. It’s incredibly simple to use. Just head to the site, click the record button, and start talking. When you’re finished recording hit the stop button. You can listen to your recording before downloading it as an MP3. If you don’t like your recording you can create a new one by just refreshing the Vocaroo.com homepage and starting again. Here’s my recent demo of how to use Vocaroo.

Online Voice Recorder
Online-Voice-Recorder.com offers the same simplicity of Vocaroo plus a couple of features that I’ve always wished Vocaroo had. One of those features is the ability to pause a recording in progress and resume it when I want to. The other feature is the option to trim the dead air at the beginning and end of a recording. Watch my video to see those features in action.

Twisted Wave
Twisted Wave offers many more features than either of the tools mentioned above. But at it’s most basic level you can still just head to the site, launch the recorder, start talking, and then export your recording as an MP3 all without creating an account on the site. For those who are looking for a way to save audio directly into Google Drive, Twisted Wave offers that capability. Watch my short video below to see how you can use Twisted Wave to make an audio recording and save it directly to your Google Drive.
