DESCRIPTION

14       The  aurecord  program  can be used to record audio data from a Network
15       Audio System server into a file.  The  recording  will  continue  until
16       either  the specified time has elapsed or aurecord receives a SIGINT or
17       SIGTERM signal.

OPTIONS

20       The following options may be used with the aurecord program:
21
22       -audio servername
23               The Network Audio System server from which the file  should  be
24               recorded.
25
26       -file format
27               The file format to be used for the recorded audio data.  The -?
28               option will display a list of valid file formats.  The  default
29               file format is Sun/NeXT.
30
31       -data format
32               The data format to be used for the recorded audio data.  The -?
33               option will display a list of valid data  formats.   Note  that
34               each  file  format may only support selected data formats.  The
35               default data format is 8-bit uLAW.
36
37       -rate sample rate
38               The sampling rate (in hertz) for the  recording.   The  default
39               rate is 8000 Hz.
40
41       -mode input mode
42               Some  Network  Audio  System  servers  may have different input
43               amplification modes for  microphone  input  versus  line  level
44               input.   This option allows the amplification mode to be speci‐
45               fied.  The two modes available are "mic" for  microphone  input
46               and "line" for line level input.  The default mode is "mic".
47
48       -gain input gain
49               The input gain level in percent.  The default is 75%.
50
51       -time seconds
52               The time, in seconds, for the recording.  If this option is not
53               used, aurecord will record until a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal  is
54               received.
55
56       -comment comment
57               A comment to be stored in the data file.
