Setting the quality of audio recordings

[hennibal]

I've got a problem with audio recording in SWF Kit. When I record audio with my microphone the quality of the output file is pretty bad. Is there any way to improve the quality like setting the bitrate, recording in mono/stereo and the like? Please help!

//Recording
MCI.sendCmdString("open new type waveaudio alias myrecorder");
MCI.sendCmdString("set myrecorder bitspersample 8 channels 2 samplespersec 44100");
MCI.sendCmdString("record myrecorder");

//Stop and save to file

MCI.sendCmdString("stop myrecorder");
MCI.sendCmdString("save myrecorder c:\\1.wav");
MCI.sendCmdString("close myrecorder");

This worked fine! But how can I set the recording quality in a script like the following one?

//Delete previous recording
file = new File ("d:\\1.wav");
file.remove();

//Define new recording device
recorder = new MCI;
recorder.deviceType = "waveaudio";
recorder.fileName = "";
recorder.wait = true;
recorder.command = "open";

//Set time format to milliseconds
recorder.timeFormat = 0;

//Set the record length to 10 seconds
recorder.to = 10000;

//Set overwrite existing data
recorder.recordMode = true;

//Start recording
recorder.command = "record";

//Save the recording to file
recorder.fileName = "d:\\1.wav";
recorder.command = "save";
recorder.command = "close";

Hi,

sorry, it's very hard to set the recoding quality in this way. The mci object does return the device id, but when use the device id in the set command string, it just returns "unknown device".
