How to Increase or Decrease the Recording Audio Volume

Bandicam version 7.0.1 added a new sound volume control feature that allows users to adjust recording sounds, including speaker and microphone audio, and fine-tune volume levels from 0% to 200%.
Now, whenever you want to make your recording sound louder or quieter, you can adjust the audio volume in Bandicam. In addition, you can select the sound devices by clicking the audio icons in the latest version of Bandicam.


Amplify or Reduce the Recording Audio Volume

You can select speaker and microphone devices and set the recording volume before recording. If you do not see these options, please update to the latest version of Bandicam.
