Regardless of how you choose to listen to music or other sounds, remember that there may be other people who may not be interested in hearing you or your computer. Try to be courteous, especially in office environments. Use a quality head-set, rather than the ones with the small ear pieces. This is better for your ears and causes less distraction for your colleagues.

11.2.3. Recording

Various tools are again available that allow you to record voice and music. For recording voice you can use

arecord on the command line:

alexey@russia:~> arecord /var/tmp/myvoice.wav

Recording WAVE '/var/tmp/myvoice.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono Aborted by signal Interrups...

alexey@russia:~> arecord /var/tmp/myvoice.wav

Recording WAVE '/var/tmp/myvoice.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono Aborted by signal Interrups...

"Interrupt" means that the application has caught a Ctrl+C. Play the sample using the simple play command.
