I need a program that can record audio files upwards of 2-3 hours....

Similar to sound recorder, just need longer than 35 minutes which it seems SR maxes out on --

Any ideas?

Thanks

    Audacity

    I've used it before. Seems to be pretty good and you can can record multiple channels(seems like that would be good if recording from a board).
    I know just enough to be dangerous, but don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm a genius. :D

    Pioneer VSX-816
    Monitor 40's - fronts, bi-amped
    Monitor 30's - surrounds
    CS1 - center
    PSW10 - I'll let you guess
    Blue Jeans Cable - speaker cable
    Daewoo 27 incher - one step up from a console
    Sony Progressive scan DVD
    XBOX

    SOPA since 2008
    Here's my stuff.

    I've used Audacity as well, nice program. It has some nice filters for removing white noise and the like.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Audacity is great, but I'd recommend Soundtrack Pro.

    Not sure if it's free, will check.

    Soundtrack is not free and is Mac only. IMO, go with Audacity; Soundtrack is a scoring/looping type program used to make music not record and edit it.

    Was just looking to see if it's free.

    You're right though, Soundtrack is a bit too advanced for just recording music.
