SuperMegaUltraGroovy and toastycode Announce TapeDeck 1.5

TapeDeck 1.5, the long-awaited sequel to the powerful and fun audio  recorder for Mac OS X, is now available! This new release adds support  for high-resolution Retina displays, and improved YouTube uploading with high definition output. Just in time for the  holidays, you can purchase TapeDeck 1.5 for only $4.99 US (regular MSRP  $19.99 US) for a limited time at tapedeckapp.com.

"When TapeDeck first launched in 2008, we worked hard to make an  application that took full advantage of Core Animation to deliver a  delightful user experience," said Chris Liscio, SuperMegaUltraGroovy's  founder. "Now with the new Retina displays, we can continue delivering that experience at an even higher fidelity."

As its predecessor, TapeDeck 1.5 features the cool retro interface  reminiscent of an 80’s tape recorder. It offers a quick-capture  workflow, allowing you to automatically save your recording as soon as  you hit STOP. Using the Apple Lossless Audio Codec, TapeDeck captures its High Quality recordings with full fidelity, ensuring that  your musical ideas are kept intact when moved to Garage Band or Logic.

"TapeDeck is such a popular application with songwriters, physicians,  students, musicians, teachers," says Liscio. "The user base is very  diverse,and always growing. This release embraces Apple's newest OS  technologies in order to continue delivering its delightful and unique experience to a growing pool of diverse Mac users." TapeDeck  1.5 requires a Mac running OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion, and also adds  support for Apple's Sandboxing security feature while also adopting  other new technologies under the hood. In addition, this update includes many performance and stability improvements.
