Is there software that I can look at in the morning where I can scroll to the time when I was woken up?
Audacity is a popular free recording software. It can’t “tell time,” but it records in real time and gives a visual display of the recording, as you can see in the picture below.
So, if you started recording at say, 9:00 PM sharp, and you saw in the morning that there was a noise incident 3 hours and 45minutes into the recording, you’d know it happened at 12:45 AM. If the noise is significantly loud enough to wake you, you should be able to see an increase in the signal level in Audacity. Naturally, you'e also be able to hear what it actually sounds like.
In addition to your mic, you’ll also need a USB audio interface.
