  • With the CaptureSpace Desktop Recorder window open, select Webcam to record the webcam.


  • A five-second countdown timer will indicate when recording will begin. To ensure that nothing is cut off from the beginning, it is a good idea to wait an extra second before you begin speaking.

    When you're finished with your recording click the Done button.
    If you would like to delete the recording and re-record it click the Cancel button.


  • If you'd like to edit your CaptureSpace recording please refer to Editing CaptureSpace Recordings.
    If you do not wish to edit your recording, click Done.


  • Next, title your recording. Optionally, you may add a description and tags.
    Clicking Upload will upload the recording to My Media and save it in the CaptureSpace library.

How to access the audio files

You can access the local audio recording files, and here's how:

Open CaptureSpace and click on the Settings tab. Copy the location of the 'Local Media Files Storage' and paste it into the Windows Explorer address bar. From there you'll need to find the correct sub folder with the MP4 file you're looking for (MP4 is used for audio by CaptureSpace).
