+1 for OBS and Shotcut. At a minimum, software I installed has to be
a) Open source licensed
b) Available as binaries for Windows, Linux and MacOS that don't
trigger Windows' "unknown source" warnings.

Markovs of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!
About 8-9 years ago I attempted to record video
and on-board sound along with
an external microphone. There were two programs I tried, Record My Desktop,
and (I think) Simple Screen Recorder.
I couldn't get either of them to manage the microphone, and only one to include
stereo audio - and even that was a struggle (can't remember which one).
I'm wondering what the current situation is for the best possible prospect of
doing this. I won't be using a camera, but want to be able to use a microphone
for voiceover, so that of course would be mono.
Also I envisage doing this in comparatively short sections, then stitching
them all together afterwards to make a seemingly continuous vid.
Can anyone make suggestions. The kit I'll be using will have an earlier 4 core
AMD Ryzen, with a reasonably modern Radeon GPU card and connected to an M-Audio
Mtrack 8.
OBS Studio is pretty good for pasting together several sources
(including application windows) into one or several "scenes" and then
recording (or streaming, or injecting into a videoconference via
v4l2loopback device) a sequence of live sources embedded into switched
scenes.
Check out <https://youtu.be/Vn1f70IH-Es?t=755> for some stuff where I
pasted commentary over the slides of a presentation and then did a
mix-in commentary with a preexisting video, bringing in various (live)
application windows to illustrate what I am talking about.
While several such passages (and the transitions) were done with OBS
Studio, the final output was then stitched together using Shotcut. Also
the live commentary was overlong and I had numerous excursions into
irrelevant matter: cutting stuff out from the original OBS Studio take
was also done in Shotcut.
