Its used for streaming but you can also use it to record. It can be setup to capture your desktop and your audio. You can assign a hotkey to turn recording on, minimize it and then open your other software, hit the hot key to start recording and do your tutorial, narrating as you go.

Google it. its from streamlabs.
