What format does the microphone record in?

[dansav]

What format is an audioClip created with the microphone in Unity 3.5?
mp3? ogg? something else?

How would I write the recording to a file?
Or is it already written as it records?

Thanks,

“An AudioClip stores the audio file either compressed as ogg vorbis or uncompressed”

There’s no format as such, it’s just data. As for saving, Writing a wav file in runtime - general guidance needed - Questions & Answers - Unity Discussions
