Audio Hijack Pro 2 review

Verdict:

Review Date: 3 Sep 2004

Price when reviewed: upgrade from Audio Hijack Pro $10; upgrade from Audio Hijack $16

Reviewed By: Jonathan Wilson

Our Rating 5 stars out of 5

Everything is detailed in the entertaining manual, which reveals certain hidden functions, such as the ability to hijack multiple applications and create separate files for each. The developers aren't shy of alerting users to certain known issues, either, such as the fact that Audio Hijack Pro 2 won't work with Classic applications or that while you can hijack iChat's output, you only receive the other side of the conversation.

However, these are no more than minor inconveniences or issues beyond this excellent application's remit. Rogue Amoeba states that Audio Hijack Pro will run fine on any four-year-old Mac, and it certainly performed flawlessly on a 2001-model 600MHz G3 iBook. A Mac without Audio Hijack Pro is frankly lacking an essential audio utility. At this price, it's a must-have.
