[SoX-users] Newbie questions: recording win32

[Andreas M. <And...@we...>]

Hi all,

just found sox after searching for a tool to record from command line.
I want to us it with windows and saw that there is a cygwin port.
Does someone know another tool to record from command line on windows?

When I start recording with rec.exe I'm not able to change the
sample size to 16 bit. It always remain on 8 bit.
Is this changable or something that has to do with the cygwin port?


Is there a way to do something like VU meter? I want to adjust the
microphone volume so that no clipping occurs. Is there something?
Can I interpret raw-format for that like 'rec -c 1 -t raw | vuscript'?

Best regards
Andreas Mock
