What open source software (WAMI-Recorder)/web browser (via getUserMedia) will give me the best quality audio recordings?
High quality would be defined as (44.1 or 48 sample rate) and 16 bit sample size.
More Information:
So currently my solution is WAMI-Recorder, but I am wondering if the HTML5 specification has matured to a point in browser such that I can record without Flash and get equal or higher quality audio recordings. Currently it looks like WAMI maxes out at 22050.
I do not need cross browser support as this is for internal business use.
A non-Flash solution would also be preferred.

Activate Web Radio Recorder Launch Free Sound Recorder. Click the drop-down arrow on the radio player and pick a radio station from the drop-down menu. Then, the radio player will start buffering and then you will hear the sound. Click the “Record” button to activate the web radio recorder.
Chrome Audio Capture is a Chrome extension that allows users to record any audio playing on the current tab. Multiple tabs can be recorded simultaneously. Recordings can be saved as either . mp3 or .
I found something here. hope it will help you to record audio
