Multimedia rules. To communicate your point in these high-tech times, you can make a big impression on your audience by adding audio clips to your memos or slide presentations.
If you want to record your voice, your system needs to have a built-in microphone or an audio card with a microphone. However, as long as you can play music CDs on your computer, you can use the Windows 95 Sound Recorder to record selections from those CDs, even without a built-in microphone.
In general, to record selections from your music CDs, you launch Microsoft's CD Player (or any other CD-playing software you may have installed) and the Sound Recorder. You cue your music CD to a point just before where you want to start recording, and click the Play button. Then, you click the Sound Recorder's Record button. Of course, you'll click the Sound Recorder's Stop button to end recording. You save the file to disk, and you can play it again with Sound Recorder, or you can embed the WAV file in almost any application that supports OLE.
