Rogue Amoeba has announced version 2.8 of Audio Hijack, their audio recording application and Mac users own tape recorder. The most important news is perhaps that it’s now Leopard compatible. Audio Hijack basically lets you record any audio, including things like Skype conversations. If you want to know more about Audio Hijack, you can read about it here at Rogue Amoeba’s website.

This update includes Instant Hijack 2, enabling the hijacking of audio from applications which are already running on Leopard, as well as Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). The System Audio Extra has also been updated with Soundflower 1.3, more ID3 tags are supported, and bookmarkable recordings have been made more reliable. As always, there are also myriad minor bug fixes and improvements as well.

2.8 is a free upgrade for registered users.

Just a synth sound that I came up with that reminded me of the typical spooky effect.

Crazy synth 1

A huge bad ass synth and nothing more. Sometimes that’s enough. Think the THX sound.

Shure podcasts

Shure – one of the leaders on microphone manufacturing – has several episodes of their podcast (or Shurecast as they call it) on their website. I’m listening to the episode on SM58 and SM57 as I’m typing this. While they’re plugging their own products a lot, there’s also a fair share of information.

Some of the more interesting parts includes the drop test, the military connection, and the difference between the SM57 and SM58. They’re talking mostly about musical application and the microphones in general, but their microphones can certainly be used for podcasting… As you might know
