Waitaminute. Do you want to simply do single track
recording, or do you want to use your Linux box as a
home multi-track recording studio, ala DigiDesign
( http://www.digidesign.com/ ).
Are you going to mix down your stuff? Or do you just
want a virtual single-track tape recorder? I don't know
of ANY Linux solution that is a multi-track recording studio
... but Digidesign ProTools is FREE if you only want
8 tracks (you gotta pay for the 24-track version, imagine
that. :) ) I've used it. It rocks. Unfortunately, you'll have
to have a Win partition ...
My opinion is, if you use your computer for this
type of app, you want to have a dedicated partition
anyhow ... Mac, Wintel, or Linux.
However, if anyone knows of a Linux solution, I'd love
to know about it. :J

The easiest way is to 'cat /dev/dsp > guitar.track' and then play into
you mic. To play back 'cat guitar.track > /dev/dsp'.
With a real recording system you would be able to select the sample
rate, mono/stereo, etc, and then edit the file when you are done. But
this works.
