Microphone is activated as soon as app starts, not just when recording starts #18

As soon as the app starts, access to the microphone/input is requested and the configured microphone is activated.

This should only happen when one clicks the recording start button and not already from the start of the app. Stopping the recording should release the input device.

Thank you for reporting this issue.

Aural Player does not use the microphone at all, and so should not prompt the user for that at all. The recording feature does not use the microphone. It picks up whatever is being sent to the output device.

I think I know what the problem is. It has to do with app entitlements. I will fix this in the next release.
