Technical information

Using the built-in microphone
Your computer comes with a built-in microphone for recording live sounds. The microphone is highly
sensitive. Once you’ve turned it on (which you do with a sound-recording application program), it can
pick up sounds within a range of several feet. For instructions on selecting the microphone as the
sound source for recording, see “Adjusting the Sound Settings,” later in this chapter.
