AUDIO HIJACK 3.8.5

Fixes and Improvements in ACE 11.7.1

The Audio Capture Engine (ACE) has been updated to 11.7.1, with fixes for several rare issues.

New "Sound Effects” Special Source

A new "Sound Effects” special source has been added, making it possible to capture sound effects like alerts in the Messages app, or the Trash being emptied.

Enhancements to Audio Hijack's Built-In Updating

Audio Hijack's updating code has been overhauled and improved. It is now based on Sparkle 1.26.0, with several customizations.

To avoid possible issues, Audio Hijack will no longer offer to "Install on Quit”. Automatic background updating has been removed as well, placing the user in charge of all updates.

The update interface has been improved, with several design and text enhancements.

Finally, the new "Skip for Now” button allows you to delay updating if desired.

As always, we strongly recommend leaving the "Automatically check for updates” option enabled.

Audio Hijack's manual is now provided online, rather than being built in to the application. The application's "Help” menu has also been modified and streamlined, to get you assistance as quickly as possible.

Many debugging improvements have been made:

Available logs have been cleaned up.

Active logs are now listed in the logging files.

Machine details are no longer needlessly included in copied errors.

Logs are now activated with simple checkboxes.

When a log is activated, it will also collect recent crash logs, to better understand any issues.

A "Quit and Relaunch for Debugging” option has been added, accessed by pressing option in the Help menu.

Command-line debugging options have been added.

Audio Hijack's Recordings tab now better handles disk errors, malformed recordings, and more.

The "Application block's source selector now better handles iOS apps running on M1 Macs, avoiding duplicating them in the list.

It's now possible to access several relevant menu items while the initial Quick Tour is open.

The "Purchase” button in the License window now uses a better link to get to the Buy page.

The Update window's width has been tweaked, to handle longer titles.

Get Access to Test Builds

Audio Hijack now features a new "Check for test releases” hidden preference. When active, you may receive notice of pre-release versions of the software, ahead of its wide release. If you're interested to test updates, you can turn this option on in the Debugging window (accessible by holding option while viewing the "Help” menu, then selecting "Quit and Relaunch for Debugging”).
