Intermission: Pause & Rewind Live Audio

With Intermission, you have full control of audio on your computer. Intermission creates a buffer of audio, allowing you to pause and rewind live audio. Pause streamed content while you take a call or use the restroom. Jump back and replay something you missed, then jump forward to the live audio. You can even start streaming audio playing on services like Pandora, iTunes Radio, or Spotify, pause it to build a buffer, then skip right past the songs you don't want to hear.

Getting Started

We recommend having a quick read-through of this manual, but you can also just dive in if you like. You can refer back to the full manual for assistance at any time. Just click the Intermission icon in your menu bar, then select "Intermission Manual" from the Support sub-menu.

Installation and Removal

To install Intermission, drag it from your download folder to the Applications folder. On its first launch, Intermission will install its audio-handling component.

If you wish to remove Intermission, choose Uninstall from Intermission's Options sub-menu. After that uninstallation is complete, you can simply drag Intermission to the Trash.

Purchasing Intermission

We provide a free trial of Intermission for you to test. During the trial, buffered audio from Intermission is overlaid with noise after ten minutes of playback. Live audio is never affected. The full version of Intermission can be unlocked with a license key from our online store.
