Hi everyone - I'm new on the list.

Does anyone know of an app that will start recording when audio appears at
the sound-card input? (ie. is "level-sensitive") - or, perhaps, start
another app/script?

I have RecAll for win95/NT - but would like to switch to Linux for reasons
of realiability (!)

I work for an international Short-wave radio station, and am publishing our
programmes on the web, as well as wanting to archive programmes in
high-quality (probably mpeg3) - preferably in an automated fashion.

At the moment I schedule scripts to run the RA Encoder at appropriate times,
but,  for several reasons, it would be of great assistance if I was able to
use some sort of "vox" control...

Thanks in advance.
