Airfoil 5.12.6, Audio Hijack 4.5.3, and Piezo 1.9.6

Rogue Amoeba has updated three of its audio utilities—Airfoil 5.12.6 (wireless audio broadcasting), Audio Hijack 4.5.3 (full-featured audio recording), and Piezo 1.9.6 (simple audio recording)—to provide initial support for macOS 26 Tahoe, although issues with sample rate mismatches and the FaceTime, Home, and Phone apps remain until Apple fixes macOS bugs. The icons for Audio Hijack and Piezo have been slightly modified to help them “escape from the icon jail” Apple implemented in macOS 26 Tahoe. Audio Hijack also adds a new Notification Center special source to capture other audio that plays through the system’s Notification Center and resolves an issue where long session lists could jump unexpectedly while scrolling. Piezo adds support for the Zoho Meeting and Fongo desktop apps as VoIP audio sources. (Airfoil, $35, 27.6 MB, release notes; Audio Hijack, $69, 26.4 MB, release notes; Piezo, $29, 11.8 MB, release notes; all have a 20% discount for TidBITS members, are free updates, and require macOS 14.4+)
