Hi,
How can I take the ADC of an input signal given to the microphone input of a windows machine? Is there any program or library to do so?

You can start with a PC sound card based scope for free. Will give you basically
audio range scope, spectrum analyzer, and function generator all using your
PC sound card.

But first build a simple circuit to protect sound card inputs so you do not
ruin from transients, overvoltage. Google "protect sound card input".


For example http://makezine.com/projects/sound-card-oscilloscope/

I am looking for a C/C++ program or a library to monitor the microphone input and store the ADC values in a buffer. I do not want to use any other software or circuit. Just like how we can take ADC on Arm microcontroller, I want to know how to do the same on my PC.
