The name is so general, I had no luck doing a Google search for it.

I use Sound forge and Audio Studio to record what's going through the sound card of my computers; not only that but skype conversations and YouTube and BBC streams at high quality. This has meant I don't need to move from my computer to get interviews with some local people as Skype recorded via Sound forge does it very nicely.Streams as well. All that is necessary to do this is to select the right input device in the appropriate recording software's input/output settings. Of course the mixer, (M Audio Delta for the most part in my case) has to be set so that the output faders are right up, or nearly so. the other faders will control levels of line input/ as well as SPDIF, and line and digital outs of the Delta card. Much the same goes for the more humble and grotty on-board sound of my other computer, but Sound Studio (and goldwave) will record what's going through the sound card once the right input has been set. That's often the tricky part and where people often come unstuck. I agree whole heartedly though that goldWave and Total recorder are very good, the latter if you aren't going to do a lot of editing. It depends far more on your sound card, it's settings and the setup of editing software - if that's what you are using. total Recorder would, of course, make things much easier, as well as saving money.

Yes products like Goldwave, Sound Forge, Total Recorded, Audacity and Wavepad have the ability to record from at least the input or multiple audio input hardware sources of a computer and that's where Total Recorder is different, this software has the purpose built ability to record any audio which is coming in and out of a Windows computer and this includes software streams such as Internet broadcasts, Skye chats, streams of audio being played by another application such as Winamp or Windows media player and so on, to my knowledge software such as Sound Forge, Goldwave, audacity and Wavepad cannot "capture" this type of audio so that's where Total Recorder comes into its own. As to what you want or need? Well that's a personal choice, you may find yourself buying one or more applications for your use, Total Recorder for example is excellent! for the person who wants to "Record" audio, with its built-in tools and flexibility it can't be beaten and the Professional edition has a good built-in audio editor to boot. On the other hand of you're thinking abut doing audio editing which requires the precise manipulation of sound they you may have to go for a piece of software with better editing capabilities such as Sound Forge or Goldwave, I personally recommend Goldwave over Sound Forge and I've documented a lot of my reasons why on this list. The really great thing is that you can get both Total Recorder and Goldwave - in other words a great recording and a great editing tool - for well under a hundred dollars, armed with these 2 pieces of software you'll have most of what you'll ever require for manipulating sound on your computer, burning sound to CD and so on. The primers I gave a link to on the Total Recorder web site can be adapted to other applications in the main because the steps outlined are pretty straight forward though some may not apply to different applications as outlined above.
