The VOX stuff isn't implemented in the 6.0.7 "built-in" sound input driver.
I don't know about 7.0.

Apple doesn't recommend that you use SndRecordToFile and SPBRecordToFile
in 6.0.7, either. Apparently the code makes unauthorized calls to
the Memory Manager at interrupt level, which may account for why you're
having those problems.

I would *hope* this particular problem is fixed in 7.0. The SPBRecord
function is useful in its own right, but it's really at far too
low a level to use as a convenient workaround.
