Audio recording for 24 hours, Auto-Complete recording
You can record sound for more than 24 hours with Bandicam. For example, you can use Windows Task Scheduler to set a time for the recording to begin automatically when Windows starts, or Bandicam's ‘Auto-Complete Recording’ feature to repeat the audio recording every hour or to stop recording after 30 seconds of silence.

Record and save audio as MP3 or WAV
Bandicam allows you to save your audio as an MP3 or WAV file.
- MP3 is the most common audio format that has good compression and compatibility.
- WAV file is a lossless audio format that does not compress the original analog audio.
