[macvoiceover] Re: Audio Hijack is awesome.

Hi Shane,

That's awesome.  I'd love to hear that podcast as well.  Oh, Audio Hijack
Pro just got better for me.  I just assigned a hotkey to toggle hijacking!.
That is way cool.

David,

I am so glad you are enjoying Audio Hijack Pro.  This is indeed the  
easiest and, in my humble opinion, the neatest audio program I've ever  
used!!!  It is so versatile, and it allows me to do so much.  With my  
hearing impairment as bad as it is, I have to use headphones for  
everything, pretty much.  I hijack a microphone, preferably USB, toss  
it to my wife, hijack the Zoom H2 recorder as a USB mic, put it on top  
of the TV, and there you have it.  I can listen to my wife's  
description of the movie, and I can get the movie in full stereo  
sound.  I can also monitor what I myself am doing with the Mac's built- 
in mic.  I'll have to do a podcast and demonstrate how this works for  
you all.  It is so cool!!!  Everyone have a fine day, and thanks for  
reading this one.
