Skokie, Illinois – Spike Software Inc. today is proud to announce the release of Audio Switcher 2.5.4, the latest update to its popular menubar applet utility developed exclusively for Mac OS X. Audio Switcher allows you to control your input and output devices from login until shutdown. Audio Switcher supports a wide range of devices including USB audio devices, Apple’s Thunderbolt monitors, AirPlay devices, such as the AirPort Express or Apple TV, along with Firewire devices and, of course, the built-in audio hardware of your Mac desktop or laptop.
Audio Switcher resides in the Status Bar, making it conveniently accessible from any application. Audio Switcher automatically detects your audio devices as they are connected or disconnected. You can set a given device as your default input or output device and Audio Switcher will switch to this device anytime it is connected. Audio Switcher also allows you to set a default volume or gain level for your devices. When switching between your devices, Audio Switcher can automatically set the the volume or gain level of your device. Adding Audio Switcher as a login item allows all of these features to work as soon as it launches.
This version includes a few bug fixes.
Audio Switcher was originally developed to fill a void in the otherwise excellent MacOS X. Earlier versions of the OS did not allow simple switching between audio devices. Users had to open the System Preferences and select devices there. Audio Switcher was developed in 2007 to allow users a simpler, more direct way of switching devices; from the menubar. Apple has since made this simpler as well, but Audio Switcher goes a bit further still. by allowing users to select default devices and volume and gain levels. Audio Switcher is continually updated with new features and users are invited to make suggestions they believe will make it an even better product.
