Recorder
Program recorder is very small and simple program for direct sound recording (from sound card to file). It differs from starntard 'recorder' in Windows, because it doesn't require any special amounts of RAM to store the sound - it's saving it directly to disk in form of WAV or MP3 (using LAME or Blade encoder to save to MP3).Before saving file you can select sample rate, band width (i.e. count of bytes per sample), channel count (stereo/mono). In case you are saving file to MP3, you can also select bitrate (now it's only constant-bitrate encoding supported)
Program is FREEWARE, you can download it by this reference: recorder.zip
