Re: [newbie] Sound recorder?

You might have sox installed, since I have it installed and it gave me the 
same error. Try "rpm -q sox" and see if something comes up. Then for the 
sound problem, are you running any desktop sound things? That could interfere 
with the grecord.

That must be it then. I can't find "record" on my v7.1 setup at all. ;-)

alex found his "record" at:

>/usr/bin/record
>[alex@homer alex]$ rpm -qf `which record`
>xawtv-misc-3.21-3mdk   

and that is where mine is also.
sounds like maybe this has changed since 7.1?
i only discovered this recently

(Mandrake 7.2) 

Following suggestions, I tried successfully the following commands: 

locate filename 
rec sample.wav 
play sample.wav 

This didn't work: 

record sample.wav (no matter, as rec does it) 

Also, grecord (GUI program) started to work, but had this error message: 
"couldn't find sox" 
"can't open input file /dev/dsp : device or resource busy" 

Thanks to all for the help.

howdy --  i'm using 7.2, full developer install.
"play filename.wav" also works on my system.
i have not tried "rec filename.wav", but "record filename.wav" does work for me.

Hmm. On my v7.1 setup, its "rec" only. So, for example:

rec sample.wav (and speaking into my mic)

gives me a .WAV file in my home directory. Also, its   that stops
the recording...

Adrian, are you perhaps using an older or newer version of Mandrake than me?

PS "play " from a shell/command line lets you listen to the
sample, or you can just click on it from X.

hi...  i'm not at my linux box so i can't look  i don't actually know where it is. 
 i was sitting there one day & simply typed "record" at the console & it started up.  
i simply guessed that linux might have a command called record that would record.  =)  
i was logged on as user, so it's not a root command or anything.  i have 7.2 and did a 
100% full developer install, if that has anything to do with it.

i would expect it would be in the same directory as the other user binary files.  but 
as i said...  just guessing.   =) i'll check my box when i go home tonight & see 
where it is at.

Can't find "record" anywhere on the system, and I've done a full

I used the "Find" facility as root, to no avail. Can it be hidden
somewhere?

   Try: locate record   (no need for root)
/usr/bin/record /usr/bin/grecord /usr/bin/arecord /usr/bin/cdrecord

Y'll might want to look in Freshmeat for 'SoundStudio'  I don't 
remember where, but a bunch of people were bragging about it recently.

It's not exactly for KDE but you might have some luck with 'mxv'. It 
records/plays & lets you do a variety of edits on it.

[newbie] Sound recorder?

I can see some players and mixers in KDE, but no recorder? 
Is there a way to use microphone to record to a .wav file? 
Program name?
