To record from sox you can do sox -t ossdsp -r 44100 -c2 /dev/dsp some_output_file.wav This make a stereo recording of what is connected to the sound card sampled at 44100 kHz. It assumes you've got a mixer like umix, you've set levels and have some audio source connected to the sound card's input. Ecasound does not have things like Dolby Noise-reduction. It does offer noise gates but I've not played with them. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
