I need Windows software to record from a specific sound card for a certain period of time, that can be invoked with command-line parameters.

  • SoX would be perfect, except that I cannot select a device on Windows... only OSX.
  • VLC may work if I can figure out how to get it to choose a device.

Any suggestions?

@Nifle, this is not a duplicate... did you even read my question, and the one you linked to? I need to choose the sound device to record with. This is makes my question distinct from the question you linked to, as well as the 15 others I found here that are similar. – Brad Sep 24 '11 at 8:37

Why is this rather important information not in your question? – Nifle Sep 24 '11 at 8:39

You could use SSD – Set Sound Device to set your default sound device and then start the recording (all from the command line) – Nifle Sep 24 '11 at 8:43
@Nifle, and to the person who +1 your comment, it is part of my question. The title: "Record WAV from command line, with sound device selection The first line: "I need Windows software to record from a specific sound card..." Also, while I appreciate your link to SSD, it does not apply to my situation. I am trying to record sound, not play it. SSD only appears to set the playback device. – Brad Sep 25 '11 at 4:06
