Audio Recorder ReviewGreat and Compact - OS X 10.4.11 User - Version: 3.1, 11/16/2009 02:40PM PST

This is amazingly small compared to Rec 2.1.3. It also lets you record in Mp3. A very big bonus. Rec 2.1.3 records in aiff. The size per time is so much bigger in Rec 2.1.3 that I had some concern. When I am just doing voice and running mono at 96 kbps For a 25 minute conversation it takes up less thatn 16 megs. My voice seems to have a little "character" to it, but is absolutely not an issue (kind of bassy with fullness). I am switching from Rec 2.1.3. Also, you can pause the recording, which you cannot in Rec 2.1.3. And I can select the kpbs and six other settings besides Mp3. I use the internal microphone to record voice notes. Very satisfied.

If you are running 10.4.11 you have to use version 3.1 which you I could recently find on the web.
I have a MacBook Pro Intel Core 2 Duo 2.16 Mhz.

Audio Recorder Troubleshooting ReportWorking on leopard 2 - Version: 3.1, 12/5/2007 06:47AM PST

still works but i got it to crash again
i unplugged my external isight cam and i launched it again. it launched twice but crashed twice when i tried to record on the internal mic.

the second time it crashed, it asked if i would like to reset the settings (which i guess means trash the preference file) and reopen. i clicked yes, and i was able to make a recording. it even saved into its proper folder. sweet.

this needs a little tweak, but it isnt dead!

Audio Recorder Troubleshooting ReportWorking in Leopard!!! - Version: 3.1, 12/5/2007 01:27AM PST

i too had multiple crashes with this since updating to leopard, but as of today, it started working again!

i repaird my permissions recently and i wonder if that is all it was.
it works just fine now! not sure what changed. i will experiment and see if i can duplicate the crashes to figure out the problem.

im on a powerbook G4 2GB ram 1.5GHz 15" with an external isight currently plugged in......
i am also using rouge amoebas "SoundSource" and im not sure if that has anything to do with it or not....

i am REALLY happy that it works again!
using QT Pro is limited compared to Audio Recorder...
