We recently released Audio Hijack 3.3, and it includes several great new features. In addition to incorporating new functionality, a great deal of effort has gone into making Audio Hijack 3 easier to use than ever before, and we’ve been pleased to hear from many users who are thrilled with how approachable it is. Still, there are more than a few secrets and tips you might not know about, so give this post a quick read to learn something new about Audio Hijack.

Tip #1: Quickly Get a New Blank Session

To immediately get a new blank Session to work with, hold option as you click the “New Session” button. You can also press option-command-N on your keyboard. You’ll bypass the Template Chooser and get an blank Session to configure.

Tip #2: Schedule Your Recordings

From the Schedule tab of the Home window, you can configure a Session to automatically run at a specific time. Add the direct URL for a radio stream to the “Open URL” field of an Application Source block and you can even do timed recording of audio, much like a DVR.

Tip #3: Don’t Forget to Mute Those Timers!

If you schedule a recording for the middle of the night, you probably won’t want it to make noise while it’s recording. Remove the Output block from your audio chain, and audio will be recorded without being heard.

Delete the Output block to mute the timer.

As well, be sure to turn on the “Quit Sources” checkbox in the Schedule tab. That way, when the timer is finished (and Audio Hijack stops capturing audio), the audio-producing source application will be shut down.

Tip #4: A Musical Alarm Clock

The Schedule tab can be used for more than timed recordings. It can also help you use your computer as a musical alarm clock. Start by putting a radio stream in the “Open URL” field of an Application Source block, and hook it up to an Output Device block set to your speakers. Then, set a timer for when you want to wake up, right in the Schedule tab. At the appointed time, Audio Hijack will pop open and your audio will play.

Tip #5: Share Your Sessions

It’s possible to create complex and powerful Sessions in Audio Hijack to do just about anything you might need. It’s also possible to share those Sessions, by exporting them to distribute to others for use in their own copies of Audio Hijack. When you’re in the Session you wish to share, just select “Export…” from the Session menu, and save. You can then email your Session to a friend, or even post it on your website.

Tip #6: Share Your Sessions Faster

If you want to quickly export one or many sessions, as explained in Tip #5 above, do it from the Home window. Click to the Sessions tab, then select one or more Sessions you want to export by clicking (and shift-clicking). Once you’ve got the desired Sessions selected, just drag them to your Desktop, and they’ll be exported instantly.

Tip #7: Tear Off Your Popovers

Nearly all blocks in Audio Hijack feature a popover which provides access to the block’s settings. When you click on a block, its popover appears. When you click away, that popover disappears. What if you want those controls to remain available? Just click the popover and drag it away from the block to tear it off. Now, the settings will stay open for easy access.

Tip #8: Pin Popovers To Make Them Float

If you need to work in other applications while you record, but still want access to some of Audio Hijack’s controls, you can! First, tear off the popover for the relevant blocks (see Tip #7, above). Then, click the Pin button. When its pinned, the popover will float above all other windows on your system, and it’ll be accessible from within any application.

See the “Popover Features” page of the Audio Hijack manual for more details on popovers.

Tip #9: Use Arrows on Effects Sliders

If you want to make a minute adjustment to a slider, you can do so with your keyboard. First, click the slider you wish to adjust, and you’ll see the slider’s knob highlight blue. Now, use the left/right or up/down keys on your keyboard, and the slider will move in its smallest interval. Need a bigger jump? Hold shift and hit left/right or up/down to move in larger jumps.

Tip #10: Use the Number Keys Too

You can also use the number keys on your keyboard to move an effects slider to an exact location. Click a slider’s knob to highlight it, then type a number and hit Return. The slider will be moved to the exact location you specify.

Tip #11: Block Presets!

Block presets let you save your settings for a particular block type, then use those settings again in other instances of the same block, in any Session. Block presets are a major feature of Audio Hijack, and one we hope many users take advantage of. However, they’re a bit hidden, so they’re worth noting here.

A simple example can be seen with the 10 Band Equalizer block. Create a custom EQ setting, then choose “Save as Preset…” from the Presets menu at the bottom of the popover. Give your preset a name, and you’re set. The preset will now appear in the “User Presets” section, in all 10 Band Equalizer blocks throughout Audio Hijack.

Equalizer Presets

The power of presets is extended to all blocks that feature popovers, from the Application Source block to the Recorder block and more. Save your detailed configurations once, then access them in any Session with just a few clicks. They’re a tremendous time-saver!

Recorder Presets

Tip #12: Turn Blocks Off

When you no longer need a block in your Session, you can highlight it, then choose Delete from the Edit menu to remove it. However, you may want a block in your Session to be active only some of the time. In that case, you can turn the block off temporarily. To do this, click the On/Off switch in the block’s popover. The switch will turn off, and you’ll see the block dim. You can also right-click a block and choose “Turn Off This Block” to toggle it off.

While a block is off, audio will pass it without being affected, but it will be available for use instantly by simply turning it back on.

Tip #13: Monitor Without Recording

The old Audio Hijack Pro 2 had two distinct stages of audio capture: Hijacking and Recording. We simplified this in Audio Hijack 3, and now Sessions are either running or not. While this has proven much clearer overall, a few long-time Audio Hijack users have had difficulty determining how to monitor audio without recording it in Audio Hijack 3. Fear not!

If you just want to adjust audio with effects, just make a Session that doesn’t include any Recorder blocks (or delete any Recorder blocks currently in your Session). The Sweeten template provides an example of this. If you do plan to record audio, but wish to monitor audio first, just turn your Recorder block off as described in Tip #12. When the Recorder block is off, audio will flow through the session, but no recording will be made. When the audio sounds just right, turn the Recorder block back on to begin recording.

Tip #14: Control Your Recorder Blocks

Look inside the Control menu to see several ways you can control any and all Recorder blocks in a Session. The “Turn All Recordings Off/On” toggle is helpful for monitoring audio, as discussed in Tip #13. You can use “Pause All Recordings” to temporarily suspend recording, so no additional audio will be saved until you resume. Finally, if you select “Split All Recordings”, the Recorder blocks will stop recording to the current files, and begin recording to new files.

Tip #15: Record to Multiple Formats at Once

Thanks to the new audio grid, you can now record to multiple formats in sync. For instance, you can save audio to both compressed and lossless formats together, with just a single click. When you run your session, all Recorder blocks will activate at the same time.

Multiple recorders at once

Tip #16: Add Features with Audio Unit Effects

Audio Hijack comes with over a dozen of our own custom audio effects, but it also supports modern (64-bit Cocoa) Audio Unit plugins. We automatically load the Audio Units built-in to Mac OS X by Apple, but there’s a wealth of third-party Audio Units out there too.

The Graphic EQ built in to Mac OS X

If you’re looking to add audio effects or meters, just place your new Audio Units in one of the standard locations on your system (/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components or ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components), and they’ll appear in Audio Hijack’s Library.

Tip #17: Generic UI for AU Effects

Speaking of third-party Audio Units, some of them sure have some…interesting interfaces, don’t they? If you’d rather these effects showed a simpler look, right-click on the block’s face and select “Use Generic Audio Unit Interface” from the pop-up menu. Now the effect’s controls will appear with a generic look, which may be easier to use.

A generic interface

Interestingly, this feature was originally added to make more audio effects accessible to users with vision impairments. We’ve since found that many users prefer the generic UIs to the custom ones.

Tip #18: Use the Time Shift Effect for Transcribing Audio

The Time Shift Effect was added in Audio Hijack 3, but we really refined it in Audio Hijack 3.2. It’s found a devoted following of folks transcribing audio to text, and we worked to make that even easier. Time Shift now features a powerful popover that enables you to jump forward or back in 3, 10, or 30 second increments. You can tear off and pin that popover (as described in Tips #7 and #8) for easy access from anywhere.

The Time Shift block

As well, Time Shift’s controls are now accessible via global keyboard shortcuts. Open up Audio Hijack’s preferences to set hotkeys for Time Shift’s controls. Now your hands won’t even have to leave the keyboard when transcribing audio to text.

Time Shift’s global shortcuts

Tip #19: Make Your Own Keyboard Shortcuts

Audio Hijack offers built-in keyboard shortcuts for some of the most frequent actions, like starting a Session. However, you can also add your own keyboard shortcut for any menu item! This feature is actually built in to Mac OS X itself, and it’s incredibly handy. Just open System Preferences (under the Apple menu), then click Keyboard, and go to the Shortcuts tab. From the “App Shortcuts” section, you can add a shortcut for any menu option you like.

The world is a funny place. If you’d told me, when I started usingProdigy ten years ago, that one day people would exchange recordedmonologues and amateur radio shows using the Internet, I wouldn’t havebelieved you. And if you’d said that to me five years ago, I would’vesaid, “With what equipment?”

But a few months ago, a friend said to me, “Why don’t we make apodcast?”

I’m not really sure what the plan of attack was—at the time, we werestill students, leading this quasi-Seinfeldian existence of days strungtogether as a collection of different places to loaf around. And I’m notsure we had anything to be interested in. So why anyone would listen toour podcast, I have no idea.

In any event, Apple had given us almost all the equipment we needed inthe intervening five years: a built-in microphone on every consumer Mac,an iPod in almost every hand in America, and universal Wi-Fi. The cablecompanies supplied the bandwidth, and, for those of us operating byremote, Skype made the entire world our oyster; and a cottage industryof would-be Tony Kornheisers, Carl Kasells, and Rush Limbaughs was born.

Audio Hijack Pro For Pc

All that was lacking was the glue to hold the whole thing together andmake it into a recording. Without it, it would be a large-scalespectacle designed only for just one person, more like the family“newspaper” I published when I was eight than a piece of broadcastmedium. All the audio would stream into my computer, and then be playedback over my speakers, and that would be it.

The solution, it turns out, is Audio Hijack Pro. It’s a piece ofsoftware designed to capture audio input and output from your computer,and route it into a file. This is one of those tasks that it does notnecessarily occur to you to do—until you play back a video and realizeyou want to capture a piece of dialogue for a ringtone, for instance, orwish that you could listen to your favorite radio show on your iPod. Or,you want to record a podcast. It doesn’t really matter how it works, butessentially, it wiretaps the system audio stream, which can be split upby application or taken as a whole. Then, it can apply filters to it,and then convert the file (natively, an AIFF) to the format of yourchoice. Ta-da!

That was the resolution I found to the question of how to make thisinaugural podcast. The hitch: Audio Hijack Pro itself.

If I were Malcolm Gladwell, here would follow a disquisition on thehistory of broadcast media, from Guglielmo Marconi to the state of themedia at the arrival of the podcast, and then a few carefully chosenvignettes about the pioneering podcasters, Ze Frank, Amanda Congdon andAdam Curry, inter alia. And it would be 5,000 words of pure gold. Itmight even win me an American Society of Magazine Editors award.

That’s not me. So instead, I will begin with brass tacks.

Audio Hijack Pro did not do the task, for me, by any conventionaldefinition of “work.” When the red light went off and I disconnectedSkype, and we were no longer “on air,” such that it was, I opened thefile to play it back. Our inaugural podcast was mysteriously choppy forthe first few minutes. At somewhere in the neighborhood of eightminutes, it simply skipped forward to a point I knew to have been aboutthree minutes later in our “broadcast.” The intervening three minuteshadn’t been recorded at all.

Audio Hijack Pro, all set up for a podcast-recording studio session.

At the time that this occurred, my computer had been in the ideal statefor recording the audio. Only two applications were running, AudioHijack Pro and Skype (version 1.3). My computer isn’t exactlystate-of-the-art—a PowerBook G4 running at 800 MHz—but it’s well withinthe minimum required hardware parameters for both pieces of software.Skype requires a 400 MHz G3, and Rogue Amoeba does not even stateminimum required hardware for Audio Hijack Pro.

This unstated minimum required configuration seems to be the source ofthe problem, as it turns out. Developer Rogue Amoeba acknowledges, inthe application manual, that recording skipping can be a problem, but Istill had audio skipping even after following the troubleshootinginstructions. I did not even see the warning, in the application, thatthere had been skipping at all, and did not know what it would look likeuntil I consulted the manual to see what might have gone wrong. I wasable to eliminate the skipping problem by running the most bare-bonesconfiguration, encoding the audio to AIFF and certainly using no effectsor manipulation at record time.

I simply cannot recommend an application which failed at such a simpletask, because most podcasts are rather less low-budget than mine, withmusic played back between transitions from iTunes, or pre-recordedinterviews slotted in from QuickTime, or complex input filters. Withoutstate-of-the-art hardware, you may find yourself struggling to make anyof this happen. Your mileage may vary, but you’re probably driving moremiles than I do, too.

It’s a pity that this flaw was so pronounced, to be honest, because itwas so easy to set up the recording. I looked into the business ofrecording a podcast via Skype once, some time ago, and at the time awhole menagerie of supporting software was required. Today it’s possibleto set the entire thing up in Audio Hijack Pro itself: with just a fewclicks, you can set up the required software monitoring to hijack theaudio, including the input channel. This is a feature called ApplicationMixer, and in spite of my trouble, I think it’s a brilliant solution tothis particular problem.

In addition, Audio Hijack Pro allows you to mix in sound effects orinterleaved music segments, which you can queue up for playback in realtime, like a live radio show. Rather than simply having them jump in,you can fade them in and out, also using Application Mixer.

Application Mixer: Your one-stop shop for podcast recording. As longas Audio Hijack Pro records all your audio.

What’s really unfortunate about my experience is that there are plentyof more mundane things that Audio Hijack Pro does really well. Forinstance, there was a fantastic faux-Indian tune that was the thememusic to the Absolut movie-mercial, “Mulit,” which I’d wanted to find away to record since 2003. Audio Hijack Pro gave me a way to do that,easily, and didn’t skip any audio. And recording from live streamedaudio, a task which would have made it much easier to listen to NPR’s“Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me” before they launched a podcast, couldn’t besimpler: Once Real Player or iTunes has been hijacked, you can create arecording session from a streaming audio URL and give it a schedule.Audio Hijack Pro will then launch at the specified time, waking yourcomputer from sleep if necessary, and capture its audio and save it tothe specified file type.

Audio Hijack Pro Core Pro

This functionality, too, went off without a hitch. I don’t know if NPRhas finally made a podcast for “Car Talk,” but I’m rarely in my car onSaturdays anymore, so I used it to create my own faux-podcast, recordingfrom KOPB in Portland, OR, which will always be “my” NPR station.

Audio Hijack Pro For Windows

Timer-triggered streaming audio recordings. Someone’s putting Mac OSX’s Unix background to work, methinks.

In addition, Rogue Amoeba advertises Audio Hijack Pro’s functionalityfor recording analogue audio, like cassettes or records, or 8-tracks ifyou’re really hard-core, to digital files like MP3s or AACs. I don’t ownany analogue media to try this particular feature out, because I’m aproduct of the digital era, but the Silence Monitor feature seemstailor-made for this task. As the manual describes it, it will attemptto decipher the gaps in tracks, and you can either not record the gapsor split the file into multiple recordings at noise gaps. Or, you canpress the “Split”—that way, you can split “Blood on the Tracks” into itsindvidual songs without having to manually monitor the record, but leaveyour “Thick as a Brick” as one MP3. I can see how this would be useful,even without owning a turntable.

There’s also a less expensive version of Audio Hijack Pro, called AudioHijack, which retails for $16, but it has a wide range of flaws thatkeep it from being useful for most of the tasks that make its Prosibling so useful. It won’t record MP3s or AACs, it can’t merge multipleaudio sources (like iTunes music transitions between segments in apodcast), and it lacks the Silence Monitor. It does have thetimer-recording feature, but I’m not sure how useful that would be whenit will only output AIFF files, Mac OS X’s native sound output format.These files tend to be very large, so while your iPod will play them,they will require a much larger amount of space for the same play time.You’d probably want to convert the AIFF files to MP3 or AAC using iTunes.

Unfortunately, the skipping recording in my podcast—which would havebeen about an hour and 20 minutes, and ended up at about 35 minutes ofrecorded audio—keeps me from recommending the application more strongly.It’s likely that if I owned a state-of-the-art computer, I wouldn’t seethis problem, but I can’t vouch for that. I’ve contacted Rogue Amoeba’stechnical support, and the only solution that we were able to identifyis to switch the recording to AIFF. This, in concert with only the mostbare-bones recording options, kept the skipping to a minimum, but alsoeliminated most of the useful features. Rogue Amoeba really ought toconsider publishing a minimum recommended hardware configuration forAudio Hijack Pro.

Audio Hijack Pro For Mac

With the exception of the relatively smaller numbers of people whoeither record their own podcasts, or capture audio in real-time in oneformat or another, it has long seemed to me that Audio Hijack Pro is anapplication in search of a problem. For that crowd, the problem is real,and Audio Hijack Pro may be just the solution.

Caveat: Without the right hardware, you will probably find yourselfhighly limited in the features you can use in this application.
