    old PCs this was an option, newer PCs is it built in and 5532 is not a full model name, at all
    so there is no answer
    if using windows are you, learn to use the microphone test, in control panel sound
    its there
    or load skype and test the mic first before wording where it is,
    most folks buy a quality USB mic, and the be amazed at the sound. go broke at $15.
    inside mics all stink, we know that.

    acer.com go there find your unstated full model see manual , PDF and read it , it does cover SOUND.
    RTM
    if confused read the manual first and read the service tag on PC to find the real model
    Acer PureZone (only for certain models)
    in your manual it says that, clear as day.
    and sub models do exits even not the same world wide, and no country told by you wow.
    turn the PC upside down
    the black acer tag on the left
    shows 5432 series, (I this is only a series not a real model)
    next line down shows. MODEL # KOWBO or the like this is it true PC name, only this, and only this and the SNID show what options it had new, and for what country.

    first try it , then if fail ask, for help and Easter egg hunts are not fun, lacking model number of PC>
    do not ask where it is. with you fearing to dismantle any PC. and looking your self.
    some have the 2 mic option, others not. all are inside hiding from you and show up as a 1/16" 1mm hole. or pair.
    where it is does not matter but is for sure facing you with lid open, it is for using say SKYPE.
    or making a voice MP3.
    it is not for recording any concerts or the like. the mics are horrible here, voice only and tinny sounding
    buy a real mic and use it. vast exist for sure USB

    one model has 2 mic, other 1.
    no model told, by you. 5532-xyz123, , zyz123 not told and maters.
    answer is yes,
    any mic on earth working can record any sounds you want. birds or acid /metal rock or what. not.
    acer.com

    read your manual there on sounds and recording
    it is there to read, at any time free of charge.

  • Anonymous Oct 30, 2021

    RTM your PC has manual to read at Acer.com I see it there and all that is covered there.
    for sure. just read it. then if confused ask related question and at the point of confusion.

Hi there.

The 5532 should have a microphone as it has a webcam in it. If not there is a microphone jack at the left side of it.

If you want to test your microphone there is an application called sound recorder. It is located in Start - all programs - accessories.

You can change the properties for the microphone if you right click on your speaker icon at the bottom right of your task bar (bottom right of the screen) and click on recording devices. This is assuming your computer has Windows 7 which I think it does. In this screen it will show all connected devices you can use for recording.

A recording application you can try is called Audacity. You will need to google it. It is a music recording program that is free. It isn't the easiest to use though. If you want to record live music you can use the sound recorder to record it as well.

If you have any other questions leave a comment and I can get back to you.

How to turn speaker on acer d257

Make sure you have installed the Acer's audio driver for your model laptop. Test the audio by playing a music CD.
SKYPE MICROPHONE PROBLEM
If the person cannot hear you then, either your microphone driver not installed or not working OR the microphone is not configured in Skype.
To test your microphone then click on Start - All Programs - Accessories - Entertainment - Sound recorder. Then record your voice and then play it back. If this is OK then the microphone need to be configured in Skype.
To configure the microphone - Open Skype - Tools - Options - Audio Settings for the Microphone THEN click on Save.Also while you are in the Audio Settings select the your Audio card in Speakers.

My samson microphone c01u works but i cant hear my mic thru my speakers it does not record out

That's normal. You're supposed to record a track and then play it back. In order to hear it live you would need to enable "software playthrough" in your recording software, but there will be a delay, so it probably won't be much use.

Does the acer aspire 5532 have a sound card or built in microphone?

I believe it has both, strictly speaking it won't be a dedicated sound card as such but the capability will be integrated onto the motherboard. According to Acer Support the 5532 has High-definition audio support, Two built-in stereo speakers and is MS-Sound compatible. The peripheral subsystem has a Headphone/speaker/line-out jack and a Microphone-in jack should you want to add an external microphone for better quality recording.

I love my camera for the pictures but when I record video there is no sound and what is there is not good quality, btw I am recording live music. I can use some help here. Do i need to buy an audio...

Check the microphone on the camera. There's a possibility that when it was made, the assemblers forgot to connect it inside the camera - I've seen cases like that before. Did it have audio before? If it can use an external microphone, check that.

webcam has own microphone which use USB like camera. Windows has own port for microphone.
go to software options which you are using with camera and change recording device to different one " it should be named like "USB mic" or something like that.
i would check to software included to camera too
