I need a very simple code to get the sound value from the microphone as int;
when pressing a button or on timer.
I don't want to use any complex libraries such "Direct X", No recording, No saving file, Just the sound from the mic buffer
any idea?

Which sound value? There's amplitude, frequency, etc. Regardless of what value you want, you will need to use a library to connect to the mic buffer, and may want to use a sound library to analyze the waveform for the desired value.

Just the amplitude value with no processing or analyzing !
suggest any library, a simple 'free' one
and a couple lines of code
:)
thanks for your attention

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'DirectX' does not exist in the namespace 'Microsoft' (are you missing an assembly reference?) E:\Todays Folder\April 2009\26 4 2009\dx\dx\Form1.cs 8 17 dx

I don't think Microsoft have a DirectX namespace, install XNA Framework that is Microsoft's c# GDK(Gaming Development Kit) works best and gives full handles for DirectX

Sorry XNA dont support sound the one part of DriectX they dont lol,

microsoft.com /downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=24a541d6-0486-4453-8641-1eee9e21b282&displaylang=en

That gives you the Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound
