This program lets you record audio content from microphone, line-in, etc.
iScream is a capable recording utility for Mac that helps you capture the sounds emitted by your microphone, line-in or other input audio device.
An advantage of this program is that it allows you to choose where to display its icon (on the Menu Bar, Dock or both). Personally, I prefer to use the Menu Bar icon as it is easier to start or stop recordings and configure the app's settings according to my needs.
An aspect I don't like about iScream is the fact that it supports only three output formats: MP3, WAV, and AAC. What's more, it starts or stops recording audio content if you click over its Menu Bar or Dock icon; this feature might prove to be quite annoying if you only wish to check your recording list or go to the Preferences menu of the app.
To summarize, iScream is a helpful app that offers a very simple way to record audio content from your Mac or microphone. The program provides you with a straightforward interface, brings you various output configurations, and comes with no price.
