[7:30 AM] Audio Recording Software Updated With Stereo Capabilities

Black Cat Systems has released version 1.3.0 of Audiocorder. Audiocorder is a VOX program which allows your Mac to act as an audio recorder, and version 1.3.0 adds the ability to record in stereo as well as mono. According to Black Cat Systems:

Audiocorder allows you to set the volume that the sound must reach to begin recording, and the volume at which it should end recording. It also allows you to set the trigger length for the start and stop values, which helps you to eliminate recording short bursts of sound or ending the recording process during a short pause (such as in normal speech).

Each sound file is stored in AIFF format, a Macintosh standard sound format. The audio is sampled at 11, 22 or 44 kHz, with a sample size of 8 or 16 bits, either monophonic or stereo. The name of each file contains the date and time (down to seconds) the recording began.

Audiocorder is available as shareware for US$20. You can find more information at the company's web site.
