Hi Jude,
I am not sure what you mean by a remote provider.
Given I have an entire production studio, recording the material should not
be an issue. also, it is my understanding that the various Linux programs
for music work can recognize a device connected to the sound card, i. e.
a midi cable running from a keyboard to the midi port on the card itself.
The card is not doing the recording, it is providing the playback through the
speakers. the software with the ability to recognize a four duplex card is
managing the recording.
All this is done on a computer sitting in my office, assuming a real Linux
installation can be done with these goals in mind.
All this of course assumes I am even on the same page as your idea.
Thanks,
Kare

The remote machine would have to record to disk its sound card output for
you, then you would need to download those files in order to listen to them.
Assuming your remote provider is able and willing to provide you those extra
services. They'll have to have a high quality sound card installed and
you'll have to pre-arrange with them when to start the recording from the
sound card and some means to let them know to end the recording and sync
their disks so you'll get a full copy of what you recorded.

Subject: a *very* odd question especially for me.
...but what else is knew? laughs.
How scriptable is Linux?
Before the major players start on a roll, let me explain using the only
functional way I can with the only operating system I use.
*I do not have a fully functioning Linux box at all.* I believe we
established this a while back.
However there is a *single* task I may be willing to dedicate hardware
to, if this can be done.
I have absolutely zero interest in any full fledged aspect. if I cannot
do this one thing the os has little appeal for me. after a good 7 years
or so trying to get Linux going and not finding anyone local with the
skill I respect others appreciation but I am not having this sort of
experience.
In the DOS operating system one could create .bat files that managed
several tasks with a single file.
the autoexec.bat file is a good example.
You can create them with a text editor, no major complex commands
required.
If Linux has this ability, and I would be surprised if it did not, here is
the situation.
I am a professional singer. When I perform I use real musicians, not
their electronic equals which means I require arrangements for them to
play.
I am writing a grand deal of material these days, and if I am going to get
that material recorded I must do the following.
1 get the parts out of my head and into sheet music form, most likely
using a well outfitted keyboard instrument's for part of the job.
2 confirm via playback that what I have done will sound when played as
desired.
and 3. get the material printed, or into printable form.
Now, I know there are allot of command line programs in Linux
distributions that can accomplish my goals.
The problem for me is getting the Linux side of the computing functional,
or at the very least, a way for me to ssh telnet into a box using my dos
setup to run the programs themselves.
Yes there is a question here!
assuming I could get the computer hardware with the kind of quality
soundcard to Handel the multiple-track playback, is it possible to do the
following.
1, is Linux distribution is installed correctly in the first place, ssh
telnet into that machine from my main one and
2, using scripting , assuming this can be done simply, create a set of
.bat file equivalents to run the various programs I need from the command
line?
The other major hardware involved is no hardship. I have a combination
modem/rooter which works with both wireless and wired devices and multiple
ports for the wired connection.
I share that because I know even if I am not running anything directly
from the Linux computer itself, it does need an Ethernet connection of
some kind generating some kind of ip for me to use for the ssh -telnet.
again the idea is to do well basically what I do here for shellworld, and
with other services.
treat this box like a shell, ssh TELNET into it, run the scripts for the
music programs I desire, and leave. The box will not even need speech as
I plan to use it.
Possible at all?
Karen
