i occasionally record thru the mic jack using sox or arecord. I would prefer to avoid using fat GUI apps like audacity (which is great, but) to perform this simple task; at the same time getting the levels right makes me feel that i should tune engines by remote wearing a blindfold (eventually it will work perfectly :) SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME THAT 2008 IS THE YEAR WHEN I DISCOVER THE SECRET ALSA VU METER! If i have to learn c programming myself it will happen. But if anyone understands what essential problem i refer to and (better yet) knows the solution let me know. Or maybe there is a more specialized app than audacity for this, i could not find one on the web. PLEASE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
