19 ## Record for the specified time at the given sample rate. Note that
20 ## the sample rate used may not match the requested sample rate. Use
21 ## the returned rate instead of the requested value in further
22 ## processing. Similarly, the actual number of samples and channels
23 ## may not match the request, so check the size of the returned matrix.

25 ## Fs defaults to 8000 Hz and channels defaults to 1. Time is measured
26 ## in seconds.
