Make a Test Recording
Few things are worse than recording an important presentation only to find out later there was no audio or you were recording the wrong screen. It is important to make a test recording—especially when new to Camtasia Relay.
To make sure you record the correct audio source and computer screen, you should create quick test recording before each presentation. For more information, watch this video.
To Make a Test Recording

Prepare your computer exactly as if you were presenting. If you will use a projector, connect the projector. If using a specific microphone, make sure it is connected and selected.

Click the blue Test button to initiate a 10-second test recording. During the test recording, speak in your presentation voice and launch your PowerPoint or Keynote presentation, or whatever will be on your screen during your recording.

At the conclusion of the test recording, the video opens in a review window. Click the Play button to review the recording. Verify the audio is acceptable and the correct screen content was recorded. Adjust as necessary.
