Hi all, I have found a way to record what is coming through my soundcard and I want to make this command a little simpler to type. This is done with Pulseaudio installed on Ubuntu Hardy 8.04. In order to get this to work you'll need to have gstreamer-tools installed. sudo apt-get install gstreamer-tools Also, there are no line brakes in the example below. You also need to know your sound cards monitor. Here is what you type in a terminal: pactl list | grep monitor Here is the command I have to type each time I want to record in 44.1 KHz 32-bit wave: gst-launch pulsesrc device=alsa_output.usb_device_d8c_c_noserial_if0_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0.monitor ! queue ! audioconvert ! wavenc ! filesink location=out.wav There are other pipes that you can use as well. To stop the recording just press ctrl-c. But, how can i make some kind of shell script or simular that i just type rec or simular and it will do all this for me? Hope this is useful to someone!
