Chrome Audio Capture Extension

Chrome Audio Capture is a handy tool that allows you to record any sound playing in your web browser. Whether it's music, a podcast, or a video call, this extension makes it easy to capture the audio from your current tab.

👉 Key Features:

► Record Audio from Any Tab: Capture audio from the current tab or any active tab in your browser.

► Save in Multiple Formats: You can save your recordings as either .mp3 or .wav files, giving you flexibility depending on your needs.

► Mute Tabs While Recording: If you don’t want to hear the audio while it’s being recorded, you can easily mute the tabs that are currently being captured.

► Adjust Recording Time: Set a maximum recording time in minutes, so the extension automatically stops recording after the set duration. This is handy for capturing specific audio segments.

► Customize Audio Quality: Choose the fidelity of your .mp3 recordings (low, mid, or high), allowing you to control the balance between file size and audio quality.

One cool thing is that this Audio Capture Extension is free, and you don't need to log in or sign up to use the services. (Installing or uninstalling this extension may display promotional content.)
