Just a thought. Fair comment. Some answers, at least. I'm running F10 with everything up to date. (FWIW, I couldn't get sound recorder to work at all in F9.) Newish desktop, sound card integrated (ICH5) - nothing special. Yes, I have looked for similar bugs but can't find anything useful. (Some reports of crashes or high CPU usage but nothing like the stuttering effect.) The Gnome-media site says the sound recorder uses OSS or ALSA but in F10 it is certainly linked to Pulse Audio, because the PA volume control has a "recording" tab which shows gnome-sound-recorder when it is recording.
