New in version 0.10.28
- Added a quick recording button to the Library section so that a recording can be initiated directly from Topic-contexts
- Fixed an issue where volume buttons didn't work during playback over Bluetooth headphones.
- Fixed the Input Source button on the Record tab showing a stale device after it was disconnected (e.g. unplugging a USB microphone)
- The Input Source picker now shows previously selected devices that are no longer connected, greyed out, instead of just dropping them from the list
SoundTree is a personal audio recorder and organizer with an emphasis on bookmarks.
Everything stays on your device - no accounts, no cloud, no tracking, and no network permission at all.
Record high-quality M4A audio with a live scrolling waveform, pause and resume without starting a new file, and save from the notification while your screen is locked. Drop marks during recording or playback to flag moments worth revisiting. Sort recordings into a hierarchical topic tree, nested as deeply as you like. Back up automatically to an external drive or USB device.
Also supports audio-passthrough to earphones for monitoring audio inputs.
