Record any audio, keep it & share it with anyone you want using only a browser & mic – with Voisse
A free online app to record your voice (or any audio) by using your system’s mic or webcam to record from any web browser. This app is user-friendly and easy to learn. The free service offers unlimited recording, storing and sharing. The app features a voice recorder interface which takes you through the steps to complete an online recording. Select – Record, the app will detect your settings, you can select Stop (which also pauses the recording) and either listen to your current recording or select Record again, which continues the project from your last stopping point. Once finished, Play to hear your project or Clear to erase. If you like what you hear, select Next to be provided an option to Edit and Crop (although limited), then Finish and Save. After you have saved your recording, you can add an image and description. Now it is time to decide what to do with your recording. By default, all recordings are set to private but you can select to share it (with other members), only to people via an email, publish to social networking sites (Facebook and Twitter) or to embed on your own website or blog (publishing as a podcast). Add multiple images and create an audio slideshow and share online through a custom built viewer or downloaded to an iPod device.
Aside from recording directly on this app, you can also upload your own audio files (MP3, WAV, WMA, MP4 or AAC) as long as they do not exceed 10MB in size. The app provides you with your own ‘library’ for your recordings and a ‘marketplace’ to review the recordings of others (if they have selected to share) and to browse for ‘inspiration’.

Summary Review and Grade

- No Technical Experience Necessary
- Works Cross-platform – on all computer platforms – (Linux, Macs, Windows)

We had to deduct a little due to the limited editing ability but this is a great and easy to use app for recording audio directly from any browser on any operating system. The app is ideal for beginners, your simpler audio recordings, or uploading your completed files so that you can share. This is also a nice app for creating narrated slideshows from events (birthdays, weddings, holidays, etc) and sending to friends and colleagues but could be just as useful for creating sales and product presentations.
UPDATE: This application is currently not available. The application shut down in January 2012 but has already announced plans to release a new version (Voisse II) sometime in 2012. The app link below will take you to any new announcements.
