Hi All,
I'm setting up some cron jobs to record radio programmes while I'm on 
holiday. I've got a basic command:
sox -t ossdsp -r 44100 -l -c 2 /dev/dsp test.wav
which records IIUC at CD quality (44.1K, 16bit, stereo) from my sound 
card input. Levels are set independently by aumix.
Is this a good set of options? Is there anything else I should consider? 
Disk space is no particular issue as I have 120Gig available and this 
seems to use 10MB/minutes - meaning I have close on 200 hours if my 
calculations are right...
Any suggestions welcome!
Cheers
Dylan
