The trial version is limited to 5 minutes, and doesn’t record audio not coming from a microphone.The $10 in app purchase gives you access to a downloadable Jack Audio driver that adds the ability to record audio as it is played out of the mac. This is what I was looking for! I listen to audiobooks and the Hoopla web implementation my library uses makes this difficult (I like to listen while driving in areas with crappy sell service). I looked at using quicktime and an audio out cable that comes back in as a mic line, but figured this was easier and I wouldn’t have another cable to keep track of. Now I just use Jack to record the web browser as it plays the audiobook. I then save the MP4 audio only file and open it in AudioBook Builder (in the app store) to save it as a M4B book file format that iBooks on my Mac and iPhone like.The only annoying thing is that you can’t do anything else with your Mac while it is recording the system audio. It plays it a full blast so make sure your speakers have mechanical knobs to turn down the audio or plug in headphones that you can wrap in a towel so you can sleep while this records overnight.If the developer is reading this review please look at the more expensive Audio Hijack ($64) and see if you can control the audio recording on an app by app basis so folks can do other stuff on their Mac while recording. It would make a great feature for Jack.

I've used the FREE version and it worked well, for the most part. In the past, I would experience problems with the sound driver only allowing recording without hearing the sound played back live. Well, it looks like the developer fixed the issue and now I can hear exactly what I'm recording, as it happens. GREAT APP! I decided to pay for the Pro version as a "thank you" for producing such a useful app. My primary use is recording sound effects for my stop motion animations.

Every other product that I tried created audio that was subpar, sounded washed out. And I tried quite a few. This program creates exceptional audio recordings from your screen.I also tried the video capture with high def web videos and the video came out pretty good.I have not yet upgraded so I can say that it works pretty well on my M1 mac with the free version but intend to upgrade.

Used to be a wonderful app — and its still the most quick and convenient for its purpose. But after recent updates, using the pause/restart feature while recording now typically creates a bogus error, where the entire recording fails. Info about how to recover is also false (renaming from where temp files were stored; 0K actually captured doesn’t create a recording). Hopefully it will improve again soon, else, may have to consider clunkier-but-still-effective other tools.
