-
- A simple application that meters the sound input level on the microphone using
- a display much like a VCR peak-hold bar meter.
-
- Its a fun app to use up those wasted background cycles and seems to amuse
- people to no end. At 40k, its not a major memory hog so pop it in your Startup
- Items folder and enjoy.
-
- The About Box introduces a new power user short cut! Clap hard enough to raise
- the sound threshold ≈ 95% of maximum and the dialog will dismiss. No need to reach
- and strain for that enter key anymore!
-
- Caveats:
- • Not much error checking.
- • Too many globals.
- • Saves the window position back to the app resource fork.
- • Requires a Sound Input Device (MacRecorder will do just fine)
- • It keeps the sound input device open with r/w so you won’t be able
- to use other sound input apps unless you quit.
-
- Have fun and let me know what you think.
