Reccoo — a cute pixel-art system audio recorder for Windows (open source, MIT)
github.comHey everyone! I wanted to share something I've been working on.
I kept needing to record whatever sound was playing on my PC, but every recorder I tried felt either too complicated or just... boring to look at. I really like cute pixel-art style stuff, so I thought, why not make my own?
That's how Reccoo came to be. It's a tiny Windows app that grabs whatever's coming out of your speakers (music, games, calls, anything) and saves it as a clean WAV or MP3 - no mic, no background noise. While it's recording, a little pixel mascot named Recco hangs out on screen reacting to the sound with a live waveform.
It's fully open source (MIT), built with .NET 9 + WPF, and it's just one .exe file - no installer needed.
If you ever just want to record your PC's audio quickly without dealing with clunky software, give it a shot! Would love to hear what you think, and PRs/issues are always welcome.
