Thanks for your reply. 'arecord -vv -d 1 -f cd -t wav foobar.wav' just gives me: Recording WAVE 'foobar.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 44100 Hz, Stereo Plug PCM: Hardware PCM card 0 'Sound Fusion CS46xx' device 0 subdevice 0 Its setup is: stream : CAPTURE access : RW_INTERLEAVED format : S16_LE subformat : STD channels : 2 rate : 44100 exact rate : 44100 (44100/1) msbits : 16 buffer_size : 16384 period_size : 512 period_time : 11609 tick_time : 10000 tstamp_mode : NONE period_step : 1 sleep_min : 0 avail_min : 512 xfer_align : 512 start_threshold : 1 stop_threshold : 16384 silence_threshold: 0 silence_size : 0 boundary : 1073741824 Max peak (1024 samples): 00000 (0x0000) # 0% (Last line repeated a bunch of times)
