You can now record a Chrome or Edge tab and your microphone at the same time in InstantTranscriber.
This is especially useful for browser-based meetings. Tab capture records the audio coming from the meeting tab, while microphone capture adds your own voice. InstantTranscriber mixes both sources into one audio file before uploading and transcribing it.
Why this matters for meetings
Tab-only recording works well for webinars, videos, and calls where you only need the other side. But in a real meeting, the transcript is much more useful when it includes your questions, answers, follow-ups, and clarifications too.
With the new mode, you can record meetings running in a Chrome or Edge tab, including Zoom Web, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, interviews, sales calls, classes, and remote research sessions.
How to use it
- Open the meeting in Chrome or Edge.
- In InstantTranscriber, click Record tab + microphone.
- Allow microphone access when the browser asks.
- Select the meeting tab and enable Share tab audio.
- Stop the recording when you are done. InstantTranscriber uploads one merged audio file and starts transcription.
What you get
- One merged recording with the meeting tab and your microphone.
- Speaker labels and timestamps when enabled.
- 90+ supported languages with auto-detection or manual language selection.
- Exports to TXT, SRT, VTT, DOCX, and PDF.
Browser support and notes
- Works best in Chrome and Edge on desktop.
- The meeting should run in a browser tab. A native desktop meeting app is not captured by tab recording.
- You choose the tab and grant microphone permission. Recording stops when you stop it in InstantTranscriber.
- If the tab audio is missing, make sure Share tab audio was enabled in the browser picker.
Try it now from your InstantTranscriber dashboard by choosing Record tab + microphone.
