-- TGIF, October 4 --

[Update 11:15 am] USB Still Camera v1.0.2 is Out: IOXperts, Inc. announced version 1.0.2 of its USB Still Camera driver for Mac OS X. The $9.95 driver allows users of iPhoto and other applications that rely on Apple's Image Capture Architecture to download images from a wide array of very low-cost cameras (over 80). Version 1.0.2 adds support for Mac OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) and a number of new cameras.

[Update 10:50 am] Final Vinyl For OS X beta is Out: Griffin Technology, Inc. today announced the first beta release of Final Vinyl, an OS X only audio application that allows users to easily record their collection of old vinyl records using just the Griffin iMic and their turntable. Previously users wishing to record their old record collection had to hook up their entire stereo system just to power their turntable. Now users can connect the record player directly to their iMic, and using Final Vinyl record and save all their old albums. They can then make them into CDs, MP3s etc. The beta version of Final Vinyl is available now for free download.

Final Vinyl does more than just record old albums; it is a fully functional general audio recording application as well. It can be used to record instruments, microphones and reel-to-reel tapes plugged into the iMic. It includes a 10-band Equalizer that is capable of significantly altering and enhancing a user’s sound input. For example, inexpensive microphones could be improved by tweaking the base response. Old worn records can be fine tuned and tonally corrected. All this and more can be done using the completely free Final Vinyl combined with the Griffin iMic.

Final Vinyl is designed to work with the Griffin iMic, one of the most popular and inexpensive USB audio devices in the world. The Griffin iMic adds high quality stereo input and output to any USB based Macintosh and includes a switch to select between microphone or line inputs. It is also plug-and-play – no installation is required for iMic to work on any Macintosh computer. With the combination of an iMic and the new Final Vinyl software, recording an entire album collection has never been easier or more affordable.
