How to record my own audio?

BminiSIPServer requires audio files MUST be WAV files and they MUST follow the format below:

CCITT A-Law, 8KHZ, 8Bit, 7kb/sec, one channel

In windows system, there is a tool "sound recorder" can record and convert audio files. Please click "start -> Run ..." and enter "sndrec32.exe" to run it. (For windows Vista/Windows 7 or abover, the default 'sound recorder' application is changed and we cannot use it to record WAV files, please click here to get 'sndrec32.exe'. Or we can use Audacity to record and convert audio files.)

Then, you can save the audio file and send an email with the file to our support team (support@minisipserver.com). Our team will manually upload your audio files to your virtual server.

If we have some others audio files but not in such audio format, we can also use "sound recorder" tool to convert it.

If you are using Linux system, you can install "sox" which is "Swiss army knife of sound processing" to conver WAV files to above format and attributes. For example, the command is quite easy too:

sox INPUT.wav -r 8000 -c 1 -e a-law OUTPUT.wav
