Legal stuff
-----------
This program is copyrighted freeware. It may be distributed freely as long
as no modifications are made to the executable and this document. A nominal
fee may be asked to cover distribution costs. However, it may not be
included in any commercial distribution without my permission.
It is based on the HardDiskRecord program from the AHI developer package.
AHI audio system is Copyright ©1994-97 Martin Blom.
Important
---------
This is my first attempt in writing a program with GUI, several subtasks
and realtime display. If you detect errors/bugs/crashes (I'm afraid you
will), please let me know. If the program crashes at first start dont't
just delete it angrily but send me a flame as well :)
Features
--------
- Multithreaded level meter and status display
- Asynchronous writes to harddisk
- Generates AIFF, MAUD or WAVE files
Tooltypes
---------
- MODE Initial AHI audio mode to use
- FREQ Initial sampling frequency to use
- INPUT Number of the default input to use
- FORMAT Initial file format: AIFF, MAUD oder WAVE
- NAME Specify a temporary name for a file to be opened at startup
When you finish the recording you will be asked for the
final name.
- BUFFERS Set number of async buffers for recording to harddisk.
A minimum of 4 is recommended. 4 is also the default
- GPEN Override the pen number for the green pen returned by AmigaOS
- YPEN Same for yellow pen
- RPEN Same for red pen
- ICONS If set to YES, an icon taken from ENVARC:sys/def_sound.info
will be created for each recorded file
Limitations
-----------
Only 16 bit stereo recording at the moment.
Does anyone really need mono ?!?
Requirements
------------
AHI audio system V2
AmigaOS 3.0
asyncio.library V37
68020 CPU
Recommended
-----------
68030-25 or faster
High quality 16 bit soundcard (Prelude for example ;)
Play16 to play your recordings (Play16 is freeware, too!)
Revision history
----------------
1.0 - First public release
1.1 - Optimized levelmeter speed. Should run better on slow Amigas
- Added WAVE save format
1.2 - Levelmeter sometimes 'lost' some segments. Hopefully fixed.
Removed a bug in FORM size of MAUD and AIFF savers. Some programs
refuse to load the file just because the sizes don't match :-(
1.3 - Fixed a nasty bug in cleanup routine that could lead to crashes
- New tooltypes for user selectable pens
1.3a Subtask handling slightly modified. Hopefully more stable now.
1.4 - Added tooltypes/templates for default values: It makes AHIRecord
much more convenient to use
- Added Rec/Pause feature
1.5 - Fixed a bug in the AIFF saver
- Added the missing Tooltype for Initial file format
Known bugs
----------
In case of asyncio buffer overflow the program will hang. Don't expect it
to record 44.1 kHz to slow floppy disk :-)
