Audio Hijack Pro's preferences are accessible from the Audio Hijack Pro
menu or by pressing Command-, on the keyboard. These preferences are fairly simple, and explained below.
General
Buffer Size - Choose from three buffer sizes. Smaller buffers are generally better, but if you experience skipping you should increase the buffer size.
Minimize To Menu Bar - When active on OS X 10.4, Audio Hijack Pro will be minimized to the Menu Bar instead of the Dock. Option-clicking the minimize button reverses this behavior.
Recording Bin
Burning gap between tracks - This option sets the gap between tracks when burning a CD from the Recording Bin.
Audio Editor - This adjusts to what application Audio Hijack Pro sends a file when the Editor button is pressed in the Recording Bin.
Quick Record
Hijack Hotkey - Once this Hotkey is set, pressing it will cause Audio Hijack Pro to hijack the foreground application (using the Quick Record section). If it is already hijacked, Audio Hijack Pro will release it.
Record Hotkey - Once this Hotkey is set, pressing it will hijack the foreground application and start recording from it (using the Quick Record section).
Note: These hotkeys work best when using Instant Hijack (see the Install Extras window, accessible from the Audio Hijack Pro menu). Without Instant Hijack, you'll need to relaunch the target application when using the hotkeys.
Software Update
Automatically Check For Updates - Optionally turn off the version checking in Audio Hijack Pro. It's recommended that this be left on.
