   An essential tool for podcast or video producers who work with audio.

   Once you figure out how to use it, it is very easy to capture any audio coming out of your speakers. It is nice to be able to isolate the audio captured to only record from a specific app. So if you are trying to capture audio from a browser, and a notification from your messages app comes in, the notification "chime" from the messages will not be captured and you'll get a clean capture only from the browser (or other app you might specify). You can also capture from two different sources and mix the levels in real time as you capture. So you can record a zoom call and also record music you might play in a separate app, and adjust the mix to your liking.

• Ask HN: Is anyone making money selling traditional downloadable software?

  I don't know if they're making money, but they're charging money and I'm paying it. a) Audio Hijack [1] - software that should be part of macOS where you can route the audio output of any program to the audio input of any other program. b) Eazy Draw [2] - I have clients with massive legacy libraries of commercial AppleWorks drawings, and EazyDraw is the only product I could find that would open/convert them.

• EQ Mac audio INPUT?

  This is the basic idea, but there are other apps which can make it easier. I prefer using Audio Hijack for the EQ part and sending it to a pass-through device set up in Loopback (which, for this use case, functions the same as BlackHole). Source: over 1 year ago

• Upgrading my gear, need some advice for recording multiple people

  - Audio Hijack (also by Rogue Ameba) so I can record myself, the soundboard, and QuickTime all to individual .aiff files. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Why does Mac doesn't record internal audio?

  Another option that has been around for a long time. https://rogueamoeba.com/audiohijack/. Source: about 2 years ago

  Definitely doable though might point to Rogue Amoeba re: implementation/execution particularly: SoundSource, Loopback & Audio Hijack. Source: about 2 years ago

• Native BRAW Support in Final Cut Pro!

  Exciting Times! Lots of very smart developers told me it would be impossible to add BRAW support to #FCPX. Lots told me it would be impossible to do it on the App Store.

• Input devices

  However, I am working in Adobe 99% of the time. I have not spent much time with Command Post but I sense that it is a hill I have neither the time nor technical knowhow to climb. So I'm curious if there's anything else out there that is close to the feel and has inertia like the Speed Editor, that is easy to work with/has some low level integration with Premiere. I will say, when I have to use the apple Magic... Source: over 2 years ago

• No board is safe from modding.

  I can confirm that CommandPost works! I tried it out today and while it took me a few minutes of tweaking the settings, now the Speed Editor is fully rebindable in any app in MacOS either using keyboard shortcuts or menu iteums. It take a little getting used to the CommandPost interface, but once you’ve mapped everything, you don’t have to use it unless you want to make changes. My major issue is that there’s no...

• is there a way for the playhead to always be visible?

  CommandPost can do that for you, but it might be a bit wonky: https://commandpost.io. Source: about 3 years ago

• [META] Can we add a section on the wiki with useful apps?

  CommandPost - Plug-in suite for Premiere and FCPX primarily for using control surfaces. Mainly I’ve used this to enable scrolling timeline on FCPX but I’m sure there’s so much more to discover in this app. Source: about 3 years ago
