Thanks Devin,

I will give that a try. I also found a work around that works fine too, 
AppleScript.

Put this in the a field:

tell application "Finder"
        set savePath to (the path to the desktop folder as text) & "record.m4a"
        tell application "QuickTime Player"
                activate
                set doku to new audio recording
                start doku
                delay 30
                stop doku
                set newDoc to last item of (documents whose name contains 
"Untitled")
                export newDoc in file savePath using settings preset "Audio 
Only"
                close document 1 without saving
                quit
                
        end tell
end tell


…and the following in a button:

on mouseUp
   ask  "Please name your recording:"
   put it & ".m4a" into tFileName
   
   put cd fld 1 into myScript
   replace "record.m4a" with tFileName in myScript
   do myScript as AppleScript
   --wait 10 seconds
   revCopyFile ("~/Desktop/" & tFilename),"~/Google Drive/CloseAudio/"
   delete file ("~/Desktop/" & tFilename)
end mouseUp


Saves to your Google Drive and you could create a Google Site with the Google 
Folder embedded in the Google Site page. This makes your recordings available 
any play you have Internet access. Nice easy strategy for educators to save 
elementary school student reading samples and listen and review later.

A little clunky but functional :)

Cheers!
