This software allows for audio recording from various sources to multiple formats such as AIF, AVI, MKA, MP3, OGG, WAV, WMA and optional M4A. Users have complete control over audio settings including codec, sample rate, channel, bits/sample and bitrate. Scheduled unattended recording is also possible.

It allows you to capture audio from sound cards (microphone, line-in or speakers) or DV Camcorder connected to the 1394 card (Firewire, iLink) to AIF, AVI, MKA (Matroska Audio), MP3, OGG Vorbis, WAV or WMA (Windows Media Audio). Moreover, you can also choose audio codec, sample rate, channel, bits per sample, and bitrate. Interestingly, for WMA, you can also choose from a list of Windows Media profiles.
With the River Past MPEG-4 Booster Pack, this software allows you to output to M4A (MPEG-4 AAC audio). This format is used by iTune and iPod. Importantly, it can be used as a universal audio converter. You can play your audio or video files (RM, RA, MIDI, MOV, QT, AVI, WMV, WMA, AVI, MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, VCD, SVCD, DVD) in your regular player and record from speakers using River Past Audio Capture as the input connector by setting "Stereo Mix" or "WAV."
What sets this apart from other audio recording software is its ability to record from DV Camcorders connected to a 1394 (Firewire or iLink) port. It also supports hot swapping. Additionally, you can record from webcam microphones while adjusting the recording volume level manually or let the software adjust it automatically.
The software also has a built-in scheduler for unattended recording. You can set the start and/or stop time and record your favorite radio show to listen when you have time. With the optional MOV Booster Pack, you can record to QuickTime MOV audio, while with the optional MPEG-2 Booster Pack, you can record to MPEG Audio Layer-2.
