Sound recorder app for Fedora 19

Sound recorder will be very useful to add in your presentation (ppt) or to take note or to record your voice (singing). By default installation of Fedora, sound recorder application will not be available. However you can download and install it from Fedora repository. It is easy to install and can done by single step.

Issue: How to install sound recorder in Fedora

Solution:
Open the terminal and enter the following command.
# yum install gnome-media-apps
Note: Install as “root “ user. Don’t include ‘#’ while typing command

After installation restart your computer and sound recorder works fine. If you don’t restart you will get following error.

Error: “Could not capture using the 'CD Quality, Lossless' audio profile. Please verify its settings. You may be missing the necessary plugins.”
Restart and try using it.

Reference: I found it by running following command.
# yum provides gnome-sound-recorder

Other options
You can also install Audacity by entering following command.
#yum install audacity
