- Worth noticing
- The page specifies that four seconds of silence saves a take, while blips under three seconds are discarded.
Field notes
The walkthrough specifies recording behavior in practical detail: takes begin with the first sound, quiet passages keep recording, and the page gives a silence threshold of below -80 dBFS. It says recordings from Spotify and Apple Music are named with artist and title, while other sources receive a date-and-time name. The described requirements are macOS 14.4 or later and Apple silicon; the extracted page offers an early-access signup rather than a visible download.
