Yes, I'm seeing the exact same message in the Console when I press Record in the Audio Recorder app. In addition, I get this error popup:

"Could not create the file.

See the console for more information."

I have a suspicion that one of the recent Software Updater updates caused the problem.

Audio Recorder was working find a few weeks ago, but since it stopped working, it gives me the same error every time.

Just got the following email back from Apple:

I hope they're not expecting us to upgrade from Tiger to Leopard just to fix this bug. I updated the bug report letting them know that it's on Tiger, not Leopard.
