I'm having psychoterapy through Google Meet and would like to record the sessions for studying them later. But Google does not allows recording natively except if you are the inviter and pay for a premium account. This is not the case.

How can, then, I record both the microphone and the speaker audio of my PC on the same file, without needing to downgrade the audio quality by using a second microphone to record the speakers, like I'm doing by placing a cellphone on the room and recording through it?

If you would like to record your desktop session with the same quality as that of your screen and speaker, you could use a screen-recording program.

One of the better-known is the open-source ShareX, which can record in video the whole screen or a part of it.

There exist other products that do the same, but ShareX was the only one among those that I checked that supports Windows 7 according to its documentation.

    Note: It's polite to let the other person know that you're recording the session, and ask his permission. – harrymc Jul 17 '22 at 16:59
  • Can I record not only my speakers' audio with ShareX, but also my microphone, on the same resulting file? – BsAxUbx5KoQDEpCAqSffwGy554PSah Jul 17 '22 at 17:36
  • If you have a microphone, it will show up in audio sources, and it will allow you to record from it. See [How to record screen with voice using Sharex ?](https://sublimelms.com/docs/Video-App-Guide/Video%20App/How_to_record_screen_with_voice_using_Sharex_.html). – harrymc Jul 17 '22 at 17:46
  • From what I see, I can record OR my microphone, OR my speakers, but not both of them at the same time. Am I understanding correctly? – BsAxUbx5KoQDEpCAqSffwGy554PSah Jul 17 '22 at 17:54

Maybe you can try EaseText. It claims to be able to record & transcribe both the microphone and the speaker audio of computer on the single file.
