          There is an application in the Official Ubuntu Software Repository callled Kazam, which works great. It will record internal sound, external sound, and the screen. It has pretty good video quality, as well. It can be installed with:



          $ sudo apt-get install kazam

            There are many many applications with which you can do that, The best one that I've used obs, You can install it by



            sudo apt install obs-studio


            As previously suggested you can also use kazam



            sudo apt install kazam


            Or if you don't want to install any application, you can use the already available ffmpeg command, the following should work for you:



            ffmpeg -f x11grab -s "Your screen resolution" -i :0.0 -f alsa -i default output.mkv


            For the last one, I am assuming you're using alsa!

            A simple one is simplescreenrecorder which can be found in the 18.04 repo. Install it with



            sudo apt install simplescreenrecorder


            start it > Continue > choose size of screen to record > tick the box for audio. For Backend choose pulseaudio. For source choose built in audio analogue stereo which would record the mic instead of the internal audio > choose save location and the default codec parameters should be ok

              You can use recordMyDesktop. It has the option to capture audio from your microphone. To install it run the following command in Terminal



              sudo apt install gtk-recordmydesktop


              Open recordMyDesktop and just check the box next to 'Sound Quality' before starting recording.
