Capturing sound output in Java
<p>I was wondering if there is a way to capture (in any format) the sound going to the speaker output via Java...essentially, "what you hear." I'm thinking of creating an audio snippet program (similar to the Snipping Tool used in Windows for images) that can be used to quickly capture sound output, then perhaps slightly modify / save it.</p>

<p>Using a cable from the speaker output to the microphone input would work, I grant you, but only on my machine (in theory, others will be using this...so I need to come up with a better solution). I believe this is possible in C# on Windows, but as I am trying for a cross-platform solution (Java), I am asking if anyone has an idea where to get started. Thank You. </p>
