As Confucius said, “Consider the past, and you shall know the future”. Practice is good but we need to learn from the past. Since Discord is designed for creating communities ranging from gamers to education, every person can benefit from the Discord audio service. For the gamers, you can review the recorded discord audio with your partner to analyze the existing shortcomings. For non-gamers, you can save the Discord audio for future reference or offline listening. However, Discord doesn’t have a great addon to record audio. In this way, you can only employ a voice recorder. Here we introduce RecMaster to help you save Discord audio.
