Ambrosia Software has released the next gen iteration of a much loved app called WireTap Pro, which let you record virtually anything that came out of your Mac’s audio port - welcome WireTap Studio, the full-featured, full-service, grown-up version of the little ol’ app that could.
Far from just being an audio capture application, WireTap Studio does what Pro used to do, but does it way better, featuring (among other wonderful things):
- Lossless recording
- the ability to change compression later on down the road (even if you recorded at a clunky radio level you can bump it up to the highest resolution available after the fact)
- the ability to record from two sources
- Lossless audio editing
- full Audio Unit effects support
- drag-and-drop exporting to any format
- create podcasts with ease, with any compression or format
- Live Preview - to preview encoding settings on real time (this you gotta see!)

While not quite professional studio level, this baby’s far more than we can expect for something that is still shareware. (This is something my director friend Mike Cabardo would love to have on his Mac.) Goes for US$69, US$30 for upgrading from WireTap Pro or Audio Hijack Pro. The Doodler gives this one 8 of 10 Apples.
