Audio Recorder is one of my favorites. It's accessible and free. Among
other things you can choose the source to record and then monitor it. So
you could pick Line-In and then check the Monitor checkbox to hear
what's happening. At that point you could also record the audio into a
number of formats direct to your hard drive. I've used this little app
to record to AIFF for a number of live events and it has never failed
(so far). That lets me just use my laptop in lieu of aDAT or CDRecorder box.

Someone at apple hq had a strange thought process though if tha'ts the
reason, because they still let you monitor the inbuilt mic, which
feeds back like a goodun if you're not careful. Makes no sense to me.

there is a good reason why that doesnt happen. as you know the apple
speakers are a bit sensitive and do not like over running distortion.
this can cause damage. so its a safe feature in a way. the best
recommendation I would give is a USB or firewire mixer and a basic
pair of powered speakers or compact reference monitors.

Hey all, if I wanted to hook up a mixer to the line in on my mac,
I'd want to be able to hear what is coming through that. In
Windows, I could unmute the line in in play back, but haven't been
able to find anything similar on the mac. Any help would be
appreciated.
Thanks.
