[comp.sys.sun] Speak & Record for SparcStation

cm26+@andrew.cmu.edu (Curt McDowell) (10/08/90)

I have written the programs requested by Kurt Gluck, and thought they
might be of interest to other people.  Enclosed is a shar archive
containing "speak," a program to send data to the speaker at the volume
you want; "record," a program to input data from the microphone into a
file of indefinite length (use Control-C to tell it when to stop); and
"scale," a program that might get you some laughs.

What is missing is a program to edit audio data by cutting and pasting,
and I hope someone else will write that one.

The Sun 'soundtool' is an excellent recording/editing tool.  It would
benefit from some features regarding editing, such as cut/paste buffer
handling, and an OpenWindows version would be nice, but in general the Sun
people who created it deserves a lot of credit.

You will find it under /usr/demo/SOUND if you are running SunOS 4.1
