Hit-Recorder is an internet radio recorder and audio library tool for collecting music from online broadcasts and audio CDs. It suits listeners who want to capture selected radio programs or songs, organize the resulting files, and prepare them for portable players or CDs. Its recording, ripping, editing, conversion and disc-burning tools bring several music tasks together in one desktop application.
The program can record from multiple internet radio stations at once, with support for up to 20 simultaneous recordings. It separates incoming streams into individual songs and uses available broadcast information to name tracks and populate ID3 tags. A station directory provides a range of online broadcasts, while a selective recording filter can match titles against search patterns, such as a preferred artist or song. A timer can start recordings at scheduled times, making it possible to capture a particular program without monitoring the stream.
For music already on CD, the built-in ripper extracts any number of audio tracks and saves them as MP3, OGG or WMA files. CDDB support can identify disc and track information. Recorded tracks and other supported audio files can be edited in the integrated audio editor or converted between supported formats. The application can also burn music or data CDs, and its music management features help organize recordings after capture. A traffic-control option monitors the data transfer generated by recording.
Hit-Recorder supports workflows beyond a computer's local music library. It can be installed on a USB stick and copy files to portable storage and devices such as an iPod, PSP or PDA/smartphone. The program also offers direct recording to a connected PlayStation Portable, avoiding a separate transfer step for that device. These options make it useful for listeners who want to record at a computer and carry selected tracks on portable hardware.
Hit-Recorder is trialware. Its stated operating-system support covers older Windows releases through Windows 8, including some 64-bit editions; compatibility with Windows 10 and Windows 11 is not established here. Its recording features depend on access to online radio streams, and CD ripping requires an audio CD drive. The combination of recording filters, scheduled capture, CD ripping and device transfer is best suited to users maintaining a personal music collection from broadcast and disc sources.
