On my sound card, I have to use: "arecord -f S16_LE -r 44100" Although, for simple recording like that, I prefer to use JACK and jack_capture. That would add the complexity for you of configuring JACK, so arecord seems like the win. In the old days (2001-2005), I vaguely remember using sox for recording, but my memory has been fading fast, so I don't recall the details. -ken _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
