Recording audio with LC on OSX?

[Phil Davis]

Hi Terry,

If you don't mind using a command line app from within your LC app, you 
might try sox ( http://sox.sourceforge.net/ ). It is quite powerful and 
seems simpler to me than ffmpeg ( https://ffmpeg.org/) which I have also 
used from within LC. One of my apps uses sox to create voice recordings, 
but I've never tried recording synthetic speech output.

Food for thought -

Is setting the dontUseQT to false and going with ‘record sound’ the only option or is there another non Quicktime way?
