Augustus Loop is a looping device software made by Expertsleepers. it essentially offers a very long delay effect rather than the ability to overdub and undo. The key features of Augustus Loop that make it more than just a big delay effect are: Really long maximum delay (3600 seconds - that's one hour), and Virtual tape : the delay simulates an old-style tape delay, meaning you can change the tape speed (i.e. pitch up and down).

Rogue Amoeba announced Audio Hijack Pro 2, slated for release in July of 2004. Just like the original Audio Hijack Pro, version two will allow users to record and enhance any audio played by their Mac. Audio can now be recorded to the AAC and Apple Lossless audio formats, in addition to MP3 and AIFF. Using the all-new Output Bin allows for quick and easy organizing, previewing, burning, and exporting of recorded files. And the already-powerful effects processing has been enhanced with parallel effects processing and support for VSTi and AudioUnit synths.
