Of course one can go to the sound control panel in system prefs, set the input to the "Telex USB Audio Device" (excellent! piece of hardware by the way... comes with iListen...) and then in the record scripts, set the recordInput to "dflt" and it works... And happily it seems even if the user has his system sound prefs set to internal Mic... when he plugs in the Telex USB into the USB port the sound panel seems to recognize this and automatically switches to the USB -- so that (set the recordInput to "dflt") works.
But I have been "burned" too many times when you think everything is going work and then in a live recording situation, defaults all sudden change... then the user will simply gets no sound file recorded.
I would rather hard code the USB into the recordinput Property in my scripts. I tried all the ones listed in the docs imic, emic, mbay, idav etc... none of them work, only dlft works if USB is already set in the system sound prefs. Is this list of 4 character options hard coded in the Metacard engine? or are they part of Quicktime? If the latter, I would assume one could read them somewhere...
