ever had this situation, your favorite and long searched track is being played in a website sadly there is no further information where to buy, where to search etc, what the track name is, etc… only option i left out with is to record the audio itself, but i am not that desperate to record it with a mic while it is being played in speaker, i required a neat solution. stepvoice gave that solution.
it records the sound being played in the system without a mic or speaker, it supports mp3 format – on the fly, that is saving space.
very neat application, it is not a freeware but comes with trial version. you can download it at: click here
lets say you want to record a audio track from a youtube video
- launch stepvoice application
- select the path where the recording file need to be saved
- open the youtube or where the audio file is being played
- start playing the video with volume on
- start recording in stepvoice
- make sure there is not other sound producing application running
- once done, stop the recording
- verify the recorded file(mostly it is with very good sound quality.)

how to protect evernote content?
Dec 13th
in continuation to my previous blog post “Getting organized with evernote”
now let us see how to keep our notes secure, i have three worlds – 1. office, 2. personal, 3. hobbies. i traverse between these worlds at any given time of the day, i want all the information in one place(evernote) but i am not comfortable that
- my other information (hobby, personal) are staying in my office computer when i am not around office.
to solve this, we can use truecrypt (lifehacker.com – how to use truecrypt effectively) i am not going to explain in detail how to create a volume in truecrypt now(may be later), please refer to the link above.
if you have followed the above link, you would have created a truecrypt volume and mounted in your system already, now open your evernote main window.
- Go to Tools –> options
- this window will appear -
- change the path to your mounted drive.
from now on, evernote content will load only if your highly protected truecrypt drive is mounted. very secure now.
my friend even found a way to auto mount the truecrypt drive by asking for password at the system boot phase itself, i will ask my friend to share the information.
