Rogue Amoeba just updated their immensely versatile audio recording application, Audio Hijack to version 2.5.
New Features In Audio Hijack Pro 2.5
- Improved Recording - New options and features for recording
- AAC Quality Selector
- More variables in ID3 tags and Naming field
- Silence Monitor now features a “Stop Recording After” option
- Full Applescriptability - Control Audio Hijack Pro with AppleScripts
- Radio Input Source - Supporting Griffin’s RadioSHARK and D-Link’s DSB-R100
- Application Mixer plugin - Allows input from multiple applications
- System Audio Input Source - Hijack and Record all audio at once
- Silence Generator Audio Device input - for use with VST instruments or the new Application Mixer plugin
- Disk Status window - shows available disk space on all volumes
- Additional plugin support - including Cocoa AudioUnit and AudioUnit Generator plugins
- Overlapping Timer Detection - Checks timers to avoid overlapping recordings
By far the most useful addition for me is the Application Mixer. This enables simultaneous recording from different applications (all mixed as you want them). It means recording iChat AV or Skype conversations - OK, so I’ve not done any yet, but I will, I promise.
For me, Audio Hijack Pro is one of my essential applications, and it is good to see such a significant upgrade - notwithstanding it being a free upgrade!
