    Are you asking about how to record, or how to make the game recognize your recordings?

    Well maybe both, I'm not sure which program I should use so BG1 recognize the file and make the game recognize the recordings

    Well, you need to get a voice recording software and a microphone. Audacity is a free one that lots of people use and is pretty powerful. Secondly, the voice sets are recorded in the .WAV format, that's important! The voices have a specific naming convention. Baldur's Gate Planet details the naming you should use. Here's a guide.

    Note: Baldur's Gate 2 has a different soundset naming convention, so don't port BG1 sounds into BG2!
