Thanks for the reply!

I understand that these are in the ports tree and how to
install them.  That was how I found them.

My real question is are they the best tools available for
the job or should I consider different ports?  I would be
OK if you asked me to build a FreeBSD firewall or a web
server...

But... a sound recording box...  I need some Multimedia
Expert opinions before I get started... (down the wrong
road)
