    }
}

Lets have a look how it work
recorder.setAudioSource(MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC) : set the source of audio. Here mic is doing the work of recording taking user voice as input

recorder.setOutputFormat(MediaRecorder.OutputFormat.THREE_GPP) : Audio format in which you want output Setting path to reuse the recorded Audio

String str = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
                    .getAbsolutePath();
recorder.setOutputFile(str + "/" + System.currentTimeMillis()
                    + ".mp3");

Permission is require to record audio and to save video inside manifest

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
