DESCRIPTION
       The  aurecord  program  can be used to record audio data	from a Network
       Audio System server into	a file.	 The recording will continue until ei-
       ther the	specified time has elapsed or aurecord receives	 a  SIGINT  or
       SIGTERM signal.

OPTIONS
       The following options may be used with the aurecord program:

       -audio servername
	       The  Network  Audio System server from which the	file should be
	       recorded.

       -file format
	       The file	format to be used for the recorded audio data.	The -?
	       option will display a list of valid file	formats.  The  default
	       file format is Sun/NeXT.

       -data format
	       The data	format to be used for the recorded audio data.	The -?
	       option  will  display  a	list of	valid data formats.  Note that
	       each file format	may only support selected data	formats.   The
	       default data format is 8-bit uLAW.

       -rate sample rate
	       The  sampling  rate  (in	hertz) for the recording.  The default
	       rate is 8000 Hz.

       -mode input mode
	       Some Network Audio System servers may have different input  am-
	       plification modes for microphone	input versus line level	input.
	       This option allows the amplification mode to be specified.  The
	       two  modes  available are "mic" for microphone input and	"line"
	       for line	level input.  The default mode is "mic".

       -gain input gain
	       The input gain level in percent.	 The default is	75%.

       -time seconds
	       The time, in seconds, for the recording.	 If this option	is not
	       used, aurecord will record until	a SIGINT or SIGTERM signal  is
	       received.

       -comment	comment
	       A comment to be stored in the data file.
