It even allows audio-only recording with system sound and mic.

A Brief Explanation to CAF Format

The CAF format virtually stands for Apple's Core Audio Format, which is designed to overcome the 4 GB file size limit on other audio formats like WAV and AIFF. It supports a wide variety of lossless and lossy audio compression formats and channels, and offers high performance and flexibility and is scalable to future ultra-high resolution audio recording, editing, and playback.

However, as the Apple-native audio format, CAF, is frequently used on Mac (OS X v10.4 and later, or OS X v10.3 with QuickTime 7 and later) and iOS devices (iOS 5.0 and later). The most fatal flaw is the poor compatibility with other platforms and devices. MP3, by contrast, is a universal format that everyone is familiar with, and you'll never worry about the compatibility issue on any hardware and software.

With the ability to customize bitrate, sample rate, and other settings, you can strike the perfect balance between audio quality and file size to suit your needs.
