Any way to continuously capture (record) RTA/Spectrograph data for live recording for the purpose of analyzing the data later?

Currently the best way is to just record the audio with a digital recorder. I use a cheap Tascam unit. However shortly after I bought mine Marantz came out with a better one. Also One can simply record the microphone input using something like Soundforge/Audacity/Windows. Record the microphone input save, then play back into smaart. Just use something like VLC and select the computer mixer input as the smaart device I/O. I haven't tried it but even some mobile phones like iPhone could record the .wav file for post analyzing.

Anyone notice they are dumbing down the RECORD mixers these days? It's an effort to keep people from recording music directly from streaming sources. Typical choices now are mic or Line if you have one. Wave and stereo mix are gone in most modern machines. Dell had software disabled theirs but due to an out cry put in a fix to allow it. Lenovo hardware disabled theirs. Just a few examples.
