Newbie: trying to log samples

hi, I'm trying to log the samples coming from the microphone. This code is from the net that uses the MTCoreAudio. buffer->mDataByteSize %u gives me 4096 bytes, so I'm assuming that I'm being fed 4096 bytes, or 2048 samples per cycle(each sample being 2 bytes long, or 16-bit).


I added the unsigned char aSample[2] (want to see if I can get the first sample out of the buffer as a starting point). Then once the data is read-in, I memcpy the first sample to the aSample array. Then I log it to the console as an unsigned 16-bit. However my output is the same over and over:

2005-02-03 01:44:45.577 Recordotron[4074] aSample 5392
2005-02-03 01:44:45.588 Recordotron[4074] aSample 5392
2005-02-03 01:44:45.600 Recordotron[4074] aSample 5392

Clearly I'm not doing something right, but I'm not sure what! :)
Any help at all would be appreciated.

Michael

} else {

memcpy (aSample + 2, buffer->mData, 2); // grab 2 bytes(one sample)
NSLog(@"aSample %hi", aSample); // output as an unsigned 16-bit integer
// append the data to the end of our buffer
memcpy (g_soundBuffer + g_lastIndex,
buffer->mData, buffer->mDataByteSize);
g_lastIndex += buffer->mDataByteSize;



}

return (noErr);
