Genymotion can actually use your computer's microphone. Depending on your computer it sometimes does not work because of VirtualBox hardward support.

Here is a conversation about this topic on the Genymotion's Google Group. You should try to play with the sound configuration on VirtualBox:

  • Open VirtualBox
  • Choose a VM and open its settings
  • Go to sound tab and change the audio controler or audio pilot

Let me know what is your configuration (OS, Genymotion version).

    Thanks for your response! I tried changing all audio controls but no effect I also read the google group that says you can use mic only in linux or mac it do not work on windows. – Bilal Haider Nov 14 '14 at 05:32
  • I am listening sounds coming out of my virtual device but not able to make it listen to the mic. :/ What sort of configuration required for that? – Tyr1on Oct 15 '15 at 22:55
  • `Genymotion` can record voice from computer `mic` **BUT** recorded was a chopped sound – SAYE Apr 24 '18 at 18:14

This emulator does not support microphone if you are using windows host OS.

Genymotion developers are aware of this, they even filled a virtualbox bug.
