Track_rec

Track_rec, a GNOME application to record multiple audio tracks to a hard disk. Its primary use is for recording from vinyl records to your hard drive to preserve old recordings. It may be used to record from any sound source where you have sequential audio tracks that will be played in sequence as input to the soundcard.

track_rec REQUIRES the OSS sound drivers (as /dev/dsp).

track_rec ONLY outputs WAV format sound files.

Source code was borrowed from "bplay" for creation of audio files, and gnome vu-meter to monitor audio levels.

The source code and all associated files are freely available under the GNU Public License (GPL) agreement.

Instructions for use:

You can enter/browse for the directory to store the files into.

Type the name of each track in the text boxes on the left. The radio buttons indicate the current track.

Click the "start recording" button to start recording the first track.

Clicking the "Next Track" button, closes the audio file for the current track, and starts recording the next track in the list.

Clicking the "Stop Recording" button closes the audio file for the current file, and only the audio levels are monitored.

Clicking any of the radio buttons will set the current track to the associated track.

TODO

Add a status bar indicating the current sound parameters. Add help.
