MAKE: Blog: Record anything with "Silent Bob"

Record anything with "Silent Bob"

"Silent Bob records all incoming music, streaming or otherwise, from the soundcard. When the user decides to record and pushes the button, no problem Silent-Bob has already started the recording 2 minutes earlier! Never miss the begining!" This could be handy for podcasters or anyone looking to record sounds to make their own ringtones. [via] Link.

This looks handy! Now if it only ran on a usable operating system like Linux or OS X.

Another utility for OS X is Audio Hijack. I've had great success with it capturing short clips for making ringtones.
