Looking for ways to record dual or multiple screens, but don't know how to get started?

Then, this post is for you!

In this post, we'll show you how to record multiple screens or monitors simultaneously with the help of a professional multiple-screen recording software called Vmaker.

Let's get started!

The first step in the process is to install a screen recorder that's capable of recording multiple screens simultaneously.

We highly recommend Vmaker for this as it's one of the most user-friendly multi-screen recording software out there. It offers a lifetime free plan and allows you to seamlessly switch between multiple screens, windows, and tabs while you're recording.

Here's a list of the important features you get with Vmaker:

• Screen Annotation Tools
• Custom branding options
• Mouse emphasis
• Built-in video editor
• Customizable virtual backgrounds
• Background noise control feature
• 4K HD quality recordings
• Screen Blur options

Now that you know what Vmaker is, let's go ahead and see how you can record multiple screens at once with the help of Vmaker.

Step 1: Sign Up for Vmaker

Head over to Vmaker's official page and sign up for Vmaker.

Step 2: Install Vmaker & Select Your Desired Display

As soon as you sign up, you will be taken to Vmaker's dashboard.

Click on the Download Vmaker button and download the application to your device.

Once you've downloaded the application and given all the necessary permissions, you can launch Vmaker on your device. As soon as you launch Vmaker on your device, you will see a pop-up box like the one shown below.

This is where you select your recording mode, audio inputs, and video quality. Once you’ve selected your desired inputs, you can go ahead and choose the screen you'd like to record from. Just click on the three dots on the top right corner of the pop-up and choose Preferences.

You will be directed to a pop-up box like this. Select the Select Display option below.

As soon as you click on the Select Display button, you will be prompted to choose the display screen from which you'd like to record.

Choose your desired display screen, and click on the Select Display button.

Note: If you're using Vmaker's Chrome extension, you will be asked to choose the screen, window, and tab you'd like to record from (like the one shown below). This setting allows you to customize your recording a bit further and allows you to record from a particular tab, window, or screen alone.

Step 3: Start Recording Your Video

Once you've chosen the screen you'd like to record from, you can click on the Start Recording button.

A timer starts, and within a count of three, the recording starts.

While recording your video, you can make use of features like screen annotation tools, frames, filters, and virtual backgrounds to make your video a bit more engaging and fun.

As soon as you're done with the recording, click on the red dock button on the left corner of your screen. The recording stops, and you will be taken to Vmaker's player page.

Step 5: Edit & Share the Recording

Now, you can edit your videos using Vmaker's built-in video editor. Just, click on the Edit option and you'd be directed to the editor's page.

As soon as you're done with the editing process, you can click on the Export option, and export the video at 4K HD quality.

Now, you are free to share the video with everyone. You can either share it via email as a copied link or directly upload it to social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.

And, that's it. You're done.

That's how easy it is.
