Simple Yet Powerful Screen Recording Features
Record Your Screen
Capture your full screen, a window, or a selected region in crisp quality, so you can show work clearly for updates, training, demos, and walkthroughs.
Record System Audio
Include system playback audio in your recording, so anything you hear from the device is captured alongside the visuals for accurate replays and reviews.
Record System + Mic Audio
Capture system playback and your microphone together, ideal when you need to explain what’s happening while also recording audio from the app or browser.
Adjust volume
Adjust audio levels so your voice stays clear and consistent, even if your mic input was uneven, too low, or peaked during the original recording session.
Remove Silence
Automatically remove long silences to tighten pacing and keep attention, especially in tutorials and walkthroughs where pauses add unnecessary length.
Remove filler words
Remove common filler words from spoken audio to make delivery cleaner and more confident, while keeping your meaning intact and your tone natural overall.

FAQs
Choose your audio source before you hit record. Microphone, system audio (if supported), or both. On some devices, system/internal audio needs extra permissions or isn’t supported everywhere.
On some setups, yes. Especially with desktop apps and the right permissions. If your device allows it, tools like Dadan can capture screen plus mic, and in some cases system audio too.
Usually it’s one of three things. The wrong audio source selected, mic permissions blocked, or system audio not supported in that recording mode. Recheck settings and permissions first.
Look for the stop button in the menu bar, system tray, or recording overlay. Most tools also let you stop from the same toolbar you started with.
If your device supports system audio capture, select “system/internal audio” and disable microphone input. Some browsers and OS versions restrict system audio for privacy reasons.
For tutorials and demos, 30 fps is usually enough. For fast motion (games, animations), 60 fps looks smoother but needs more system resources.
