I'm happy to report that TapeDeck 1.2 is finally available. The main addition in this release is the ability to choose your recording and playback devices independently of the global System Preferences, which a lot of folks were asking for.
I also made a handful of small bug fixes, which will make TapeDeck even nicer to use. For you die-hard TapeDeck users, I'm sure you'll appreciate all that's improved. Here are the release notes:
New features:
- You can now choose TapeDeck's record and playback devices in the preferences.
- Tapes may be deleted, copied to iTunes, etc. by right-clicking them in the tape box.
- Right-clicking on the tape box header will allow you to reveal the tape library in the Finder.
Bugfixes:
- When Marker Felt is disabled on the system (but, why?!), you can now edit tape labels. Also, it looks far less horrible.
- When recording is paused, the 'Pause' status menu item reflects this.
- QuickTime progress window now displays centered over the main TapeDeck window.
- Sped up launch time when the tape library contains very large M4A files.
- Sound is no longer played when fast-forwarding or rewinding tapes. (Cueing and reviewing is still audible, as it should be).
- You can no longer choose stereo recording when a mono device is being used to record. This should eliminate "left channel only" recordings from being accidentally captured in the future.
