SystemAudioKitCommand line
The sysaudio command that ships with the package.
sysaudio exercises the package from a terminal. Run it from a clone of the repository:
swift run -c release sysaudio <command>macOS attributes the permissions to the terminal app you run it from.
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
devices | Lists inputs and outputs with transport and UID. * marks the default. |
processes | Lists audio processes: input/output flags, PID, name, bundle ID and owning app. |
meetings | Shows call apps using the microphone right now. |
permissions | Prints the microphone, system audio and Screen Recording status. |
record <seconds> <folder> [options] | Records, with a live level meter. |
mix <out.wav or out.m4a> <track.wav>... | Mixes tracks into one file. |
record
swift run -c release sysaudio record 10 ./out
swift run -c release sysaudio record 30 ./out --app us.zoom.xos --no-mic| Option | Effect |
|---|---|
--no-mic | No microphone track. |
--no-system | No system audio track. |
--app <bundle id> | Record only this app. Repeat for more apps. |
--screencapture | Use ScreenCaptureKit instead of a process tap. |
When it finishes, record prints the length and peak of each track and, with two tracks, writes mixed.m4a next to them. The first run triggers the permission prompt, and the system track stays silent until you allow it.
