Morphology

recorded = record (transparent) = record + ed

Regular past-participle/adjectival formation from the verb 'record' (to preserve media); the adjective means 'having been recorded'.

Etymology

Recorded comes from the old Latin verb recordari, which means 'to remember' and breaks into re- 'again' plus cord- 'heart'. So to be recorded (for sound or images) is to have something 'made to be remembered' by saving it on tape, film, or a digital file.
