# Mic and computer sound (/help-center/audio-recording/system-audio)

On a computer, Taad can hear two things at once: your microphone, and the sound your computer plays. Together they're the whole meeting, whatever app it's in: Zoom, Meet, Teams, a phone call on your laptop. Nobody joins the call and nobody has to admit a bot.

## Choose the source [#choose-the-source]

When you start a recording, pick what Taad hears:

| Source | Use it for |
| --- | --- |
| **Microphone + computer sound** | Online meetings and calls: you, and everyone you hear |
| Your microphone | A meeting in the room, a class, a voice note |
| **Meeting on speakers** | A call played out loud in the room, heard through the microphone |

In the browser, Taad records your microphone, or a browser tab's sound when you choose to share it.

## Good to know [#good-to-know]

- **Headphones are fine.** With computer sound on, Taad hears the call even when only you can.
- **Recording goes on if the internet drops.** It's kept on your device and sent when you're back online. See [Recording offline](/help-center/audio-recording/offline-mode).
- **Several devices, one meeting.** Record the same meeting on more than one device and it's still one recording.

If Taad can't hear something, see [Sound problems](/help-center/troubleshooting/audio-troubleshooting).
