Description

Hello guys,

I'm currently working on a standalone sound recorder for LMMS. Most of the code is already there (`SampleRecordHandle`). The only thing I've implemented is the actual recording for each device type (e.g. `ALSA`, `JACK`, ...).

Surprisingly, for JACK, it was pretty trivial so now JACK and PortAudio support recording and therefore support sample track recording too.

Just before I take another step, am I doing it right? Way was this feature disabled?

Thank you all :)

Start by reviewing SampleRecordHandle and the existing JACK and PortAudio recording implementations. Clarify why standalone sample-track recording was disabled and what behavior is intended. The issue does not define a concrete implementation or completion criterion, so agree on scope before starting.
