How do i do audio recording and streaming using Flash?

I’m doing some work on voice analysis, and I was told I could use Flash on a webpage to record audio from a client’s attached microphone, and stream it to a server for analysis(while it’s still recording).

1) Is that possible
2) If so, how do I do it?

It’s possible but it requires a complex tangle of expensive $5k to Macromedia Streaming Server , plus licensing for getting the codec which lets you convert from the flv audio format to mp3.

Your best best is to find a a web service that offers this for you and subscribe to them..

Java applets offer a klunky way to do this..

A more polished option is to write a standalone recorder and web uploader, not as integrated but a lot easier to do.
