jack_capture

Jack_capture is a simple yet efficient program that allows users to capture any sound that is output through their speakers and save it into a file. It's a program that many jack users have been waiting for, but no one had made it until now.

To use jack_capture, simply enter the command jack_capture followed by any desired arguments such as -b for bit depth, -c for channels, and -B for buffer size. The default file name is autogenerated to something like "jack_capture_.wav", and default settings for bit depth, channels, and buffer size are 32-bit floating point, 2 channels, and 262,144 respectively.

This software requires the installation of JACK to function.

Jack_capture was created with inspiration from the jackrec program in the jack distribution, crafted by Paul Davies and Jack O'Quin. There have been various updates to jack_capture, including the addition of the -z argument which allows users to choose the number of leading zeros in their file names, among other changes.

Overall, jack_capture is a great option for those seeking a straightforward solution for capturing sound outputs onto file.
