Talking MP3 based Audio Logging for Community Radio Station


Hello, I'm interested to know if anyone knows of any good Audio Logging Software for Linux, to be used by a Community Radio Station.

Idealy, the program would fetch audio from the line-in on the sound card and convert it to hourly MP3 files. Placing these files into "/<base-dir>/<Year>/<month>/<day>/<start-hour>.mp3".

If I cannot find a program, I'll probably learn how to make one...

Have fun.
Muzzavitch.

Sounds like something that could be fairly easily scripted with sox or mplayer or some other sound recorder+encoder combination that can use the line-in. All you'd need is a loop of some kind that breaks the recording at the end of every hour and creates a new directory and file. Can't help you much with the details though. I don't know much about recording audio personally.
