Hi Steven. It is possible to record both the mic and VO at the same
time. You can do this with multiple sessions. However, if you want
to record the mic, and just the audio from a specific app like itunes
for example, then you're out of luck without the grid.
On the subject of alternatives, has anyone tried wiretap? It's either
called wiretap pro, or wiretap studio, I can't remember which. I
don't know much about it, but I have read that it works similarly to
audio hijack.

SS: Well, accessibility of the effects grid is kind of important.
Not that I want to change my pitch, or sound like Darth Vader, but
if I'd like to do a tutorial of something and include Voiceover, I'd
need to at least access the application mix plugin. AHP is great
for recording one thing, but if you have to mix mic audio with it,
you're kind of stuck unless I'm missing something.
Nicecast is basically a streaming program that allows one to run an
online radio station. It uses a sort of mini version of audio
highjack to get the source stream i.e. you need to high jack
something like iTunes in order to have something to stream.
Unfortunately, it uses that same effects grid and again, if you want
to do any voice overs, or announcements between songs, you need to
be able to interact with it.
certainly it's possible that the new AHP will have the effects grid
fixed, although they've indicated to me that it's "dead" and that
it's "impossible" to fix. In the mean time, I think it'd be great
if we could find some other alternative software if nothing else, to
have choice.
