Right now I am using the following code:

```auto
this.createEmptyMovieClip("sound_mc", this.getNextHighestDepth());
var active_mic:Microphone = Microphone.get();
sound_mc.attachAudio(active_mic);

```

This works great for playing back instantly what is input into the mic. Is there a way to store the sound input into the mic, in a variable of some form, and then play it back when a button is pressed at a later time? Or do I need the Flash Media Server to be able to do this?

Eg:  
record\_btn on press =\> record the sound  
play\_btn on press =\> play the sound
