man audiorecord

I use xmix or mixerctl to set my "record.source=mic" and tunr up the mic
(like "inputs.mic=232"). Then this works for me:

$ audiorecord -t 00:05 ~/audio/jeremy
$ audioplay ~/audio/jeremy

The hardest part for me is plugging the microphone into the right jack.

Please consider packaging it.

Also have a look at PR pkg/18124: New package audio/sweep, version 0.5.1

And have a look audio/dap and audio/xwave. (And maybe audio/nas and
audio/wmmixer.)
