Re: [Alsa-user] ice1712 recording
> You can mix all 4 inputs down into one stream and then record that, but do you really mean that you can record to 4 separate application threads concurrently without mixing? No, I mean you can record all four channels as input at the same time with the same app. Hence the -c 4 aka 4 channels. In audacity you just select 4 channels and press record. Once recorded you can break them out into 4 mono channels and save each individually (unmixed). There's no mixing involved until you configure it to do so. WAV files and other audio formats often contain multiple tracks. Individual unmixed tracks. They are mixed at the time of playback if configured to do so. By default sound is often configured for stereo with one track panned left and one track panned right. But it's two tracks, not mixed (until reproduced and analog-illy mixed in air). Baring cheap sound devices that have bleed over between tracks with unintentional mixing. In audacity you can separate the channels and unpan them for two true mono tracks. As well as a few CLI options for the same. Sox is good for that. With unix-isms you can send your output to stdout and pipe to stdin of another app. Like tee which can then save a file and redirect the same output to another file. I've sometimes gone this route to output the raw WAV and a compressed MP3 at the same time to two different storage devices / locations. I seem to recall an arecord option to output each channel as it's own mono file. Which you could tail -f on other terminals to pipe that to other things. Seems like --separate-channels is that option. $ arecord --help - James -- Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
