Hello

My plan is to have my computer to record an audio-source 24hour each day. I want the program to start a record at 00:00, then (automaticly) save the recorded audio to a file at 01:00, then start a new record at 01:00 that will be saved at 02:00 etc.

Is this yet posible to do?


Thanks for the help, and sorry for my bad english :)

No, not with Audacity. There may be other programs that can do this.

Do you (or anyone else) know about any programs that can do this?

This is a surveillance job, not production audio.

Like when they say on CSI "Let's look at the hotel tapes to find the bad guy." That's what they're doing -- only the audio version. We had a very old tape-based system that would do this. 24-hours at a clip, picture and sound.
