Hi Brian, You can use ecasound from ports. Here's a few notes I have made on using and playing around with audio: <NOTES> http://eca.cx/ ; ECASOUND Web site Add to kernel: “device pcm” cd /dev ./MAKEDEV snd0 cat /dev/sndstat ;to see if it’s configured properly pkg_add ecasound-1.8.5d15 pkg_add nmixer-2.0b17 pkg_add mpg123-x.x.x pkg_add festival-x.x.x : text to voice sythasizer Sound Recording:- Set nmixer Set Mic to 3 Set rec to 3 Run: ecasound –I:/dev/dsp0 –o test.wav Or: ecasound –t:<time> -f:”s16_1e”,”1”,”11000”,”i” –I:/dev/dsp0 –o <filename.mp3 You can use the ‘at’ command to automate a future recording: at 12:05 Apr 27th /root/bin/recsnd.sh 3600 sat_science_show ^d ; to terminate the at job. See ‘Pluto’ @ /root/bin/recsnd.sh for script to automate the recording of the ‘line in’ /root/bin/recsnd.sh <length of time to record> <output_file_name> ; no extension! /root/bin/recsnd.sh 1800 sun_1600_news ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- # cat /root/bin/recsnd.sh #! /bin/sh # This will record audio input from the "Line Input" channel of the sound card, and save it into # a mp3 file in the /home/music/ dir. # # Usage: recsnd.sh <no of sec to record> <filename> # TERM=vt100 export TERM CMDFILEPATH=/usr/local/bin OUTFILEPATH=/home/music # Test to see if there are two cmd line arguments # First set the mixer to the correct values echo "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++" date echo "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++" echo # echo "Setting nmixer settings" # $CMDFILEPATH/nmixer -q vol=100 pcm=100 rec=50 # Now record the sound into a mp3 file echo "Now recording the program" $CMDFILEPATH/ecasound -t:$1 -f:"s16_le","1","11000","i" -i:/dev/dsp0 -o $OUTFILEPATH/$2.mp3 #list the contents of the output dir. ls -la $OUTFILEPATH echo echo "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++" date echo "++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------- To Play:- The nmixer can be autoset via: nmixer –q vol=100 pcm=100 rec=50 Run: mpg123 –b 1024 <filename.mp3> Festival You can have festival read text files and convert them to spoken voice (male or female): festival –tts /etc/rc.conf ; to output the contents of rc.conf! </NOTES> Cheers, Paul Hamilton -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of Brian H Sent: Friday, 30 January 2004 2:35 AM To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Subject: line-in recorder is there some software for freebsd that I could use to record what i have coming in on the line-in on my sound card? _________________________________________________________________ There are now three new levels of MSN Hotmail Extra Storage!
