I would like to record about 10 seconds of audio on OS X, with the caveat that it is being played by another application and routed through Jack. Normally – like every other year – I’d just use Audacity, but it doesn’t seem to work at all with Jack. I finally found my way to Ardour, which seems more likely than average to work since it requires Jack, but I’m not willing to risk $60 to find out, especially for what will be a one-time gag recording that I’ll probably never play more than three times.
Can anyone recommend an inexpensive audio recording utility for OS X that will work with Jack? Or should I just buy AudioHijack and use it, assuming it’s any more likely to work with Audacity?
