Default Editing in B-Roll Sounds Using Sony HandyCam

I'm trying to add in sound using the Sony HandyCam for a scene. I'm using Windows Movie Maker. IS there a way to record just sound using the Sony Handycam DCR-SR45? When I try to just add in just the sound for a video the entire video comes along. I just want to use the sound as background noise and keep the existing audio in place. Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks,

Download audacity (it's free!) and import your already captured audio into a new project. Next plug in your camera to the PC / Laptop and record this new audio track into audacity. Export the project (which now has 2 audio tracks) as a .Wav file and the use that in WMM as the programme only has 1 audio track.
