If you want to record a mono signal from soundcard channel 3,
nama> piano; source 3
You can click on the GUI track input channel button
to accomplish that, too.
To see the Ecasound chain setup that will be used for
recording, you can ask for:
nama> chains
If you don't want any signal monitoring, use:
nama> main_off
In that case, 'chains' will show something very simple, such
as:
-B auto -r -z:mixmode,sum
-a:R3 -i:alsa,default
-a:R3 -chmove:3,1
-a:R3 -f:s16_le,1,44100,i -o:/home/jroth/nama/untitled/.wav/piano_1.wav
You look at it and think, "Of course I could write a script
to generate that."
And you would be right.
After much experience, I would say it is easier to learn the
correct Ecasound commands to create this rather than to
write a script.
However if you'd like to write a script, there are
already interfaces for C, C++, Python, elisp and Ruby.
And I forget, there is a Tcl/Tk front end for Ecasound,
Tkeca, that might meet your needs. It looks pretty, too.
