Audio Hijack 4.6 Is Now Available

We’ve just shipped Audio Hijack 4.6, the latest version of our audio recording tool. This update includes several small bug fixes detailed in the comprehensive release notes, along with initial support for Apple’s forthcoming MacOS 27 (Golden Gate) release, with no known issues on the new OS.

In addition, we’ve spent some time on improvements to the built-in Transcribe block. With Transcribe, it’s long been easy to convert speech into text. This functionality has just been enhanced with a new transcription model that balances size, speed, and accuracy. The “Recommended” model gives results close to the large “High Accuracy” model, at speeds close to the “Low Resources” model. The Whisper.cpp backend that powers Transcribe has also been updated to version 1.9.2, which improves performance by reducing processor usage.

Audio Hijack 4.6 is a free update for all Audio Hijack 4 users. Just select “Check for Updates” from the “Audio Hijack” menu to download it.
