I recently purchased a portable cassette player/digitizer for ripping old 4-track audio cassettes, and now need a means of recording the input from USB to a file. The included mini CD-ROM includes installers for the Windows and Mac version of Audacity along with a PDF manual that's little more than a tech illiterate's guide to what the buttons on the device itself and how to install Audacity from the disc and use it to record mp3. Installing the Linux version of Audacity via apt would be trivial, but getting it up and running with Orca not so much, and I would prefer a command line solution anyways. Redirecting the output of ls /dev/ to a file both with and without the player connected and using diff on the results, I've determined that the device shows up as /dev/hidraw4, which Google informs me raw data for a human input device, but I haven't been able to find anything useful beyond that. Ideally, I'd like to record to wav or compress directly to flac so I've got the best quality source if I do any post-processing on the recordings. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this? -- Sincerely, Jeffery Wright President Emeritus, Nu Nu Chapter, Phi Theta Kappa.
