The IDirectSoundCapture8 interface is used to create sound capture buffers.

IDirectSoundCapture8 is a define for IDirectSoundCapture. The two interface names are interchangeable. However, objects supporting this interface can have different functionality, depending on their class.

| Method | Description |
| CreateCaptureBuffer | Creates a capture buffer. |
| GetCaps | Retrieves the capabilities of the capture device. |
| Initialize | Initializes a DirectSoundCapture object created by using CoCreateInstance. |
