Are you sure you need to control the recording levels as tightly as you think? On, say, a cassette tape, "too quiet" means not only that you have to turn the gain up to hear it, but also that when you do, you hear a lot of hiss. Serious recordists will gasp at this, but you may find with digital recording that you can just set a level that is never too high and then normalize everything that is "too quiet" and still get the quality you need.
There are also some bits of software that might be well suited to your application. Loop Recorder (www.looprecorder.de), for example, can just run all the time: you don't even need to "hit record." With that and a one-size recording level, you might not have to think about controlling the recorder at all. Unless one of your requirements is no postprocessing. Do you need to have a finished product right away, or can somebody come later and, at a minimum, trim and normalize? -- tom permutt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tom permutt's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1893 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23154 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
