Audition is a professional audio recording and editing software. You can configure Audition and your Windows PC to easily record sound from a mic or line in source. What about internal sound you want to record, say a YouTube video?
If you like to record audio or music from an internal source, online music, computer playback, internet, I recommend visiting. Installed the free virtual sound card, coupled with an audio recorder, was the solution to being able to record audio from internet and computer playback. Mac users can install a free virtual audio device, such as Soundflower, so as to.
Configure sound playback and recording devices on Windows PCOn your computer, you need to set up the virtual sound card. You can follow the instructions included in previous linked post. Then change both the default sound playback device and recording device to the installed virtual sound card device. Configure audio input and output devices in AuditionIn Audition, go to Edit Preferences Audio Hardware, change the ‘ Default Input‘ and ‘ Default Output‘ to the installed audio device, just like what you did to the default sound devices in Windows. The default input and output in Audition must match what is set within Windows. Now go to Audition to record audio playing through your speakers, like streaming music, web audio, online radio, you should see audio coming in through, as Audition will detect audio and show the sound in the sound bar, the larger the sound bar the louder the sound.

Streaming Audio Recorder Features. Record audio played on your computer in direct digital with no quality loss; Saves files in wav or mp3 format with a wide range of selected codec and compression options; Record audio from your computer and microphone simultaneously to easily create voiceovers or record both sides of a conference call.
In the recording process, you will not hear the input sound, as it has been routed to the virtual sound output device other than your speaker. Stop recording and play to see if you can hear what you recorded.
Make any changes you think are necessary to your recording clip before you save or export it from Audition to your computer hard drive. Recording streaming audio – Easier way!Other than Audition, there are many more specialized audio recorders can help you record internet audios in an easier way. For example, you can follow using a professional screen recorder that can record both video and audio in easy steps. Record streaming video from internetFollowing above steps, you can record streaming audios using Audition. In fact, the media converter software we downloaded can also help us. Other than that, as mentioned above is the more specialized screen video recorder. It can help you record videos from TED, Netflix, Yahoo, You Tube, Vimeo, CBS, Dailymotion, Metacafe, Vevo and many other video sites.Update Jan 2019: this article was originally published in July 2017.
In this update, we added the solution to capture Mac system audio using Audition.
Option 1: Stereo MixStereo Mix is sometimes called “What U Hear.” It’s a special recording option that your sound drivers might provide. If it is included with your drivers, you can select Stereo Mix (instead of a microphone or audio line-in input), and then force any application to record the same sound that your computer is outputting from its speakers or headphones.RELATED:On modern versions of Windows, Stereo Mix is generally disabled by default—even if your sound drivers support it. After enabling Stereo Mix, you can use any audio-recording program, and just select “Stereo Mix” as the input device instead of the usual “line-in” or “microphone” option.On some devices, you may not have this option at all. There may be a way to enable it with different audio drivers, but not every piece of sound hardware supports Stereo Mix.
It’s unfortunately become less and less common. Option 2: Audacity’s WASAPI LoopbackDon’t have a Stereo Mix option? Has a useful feature that can record the audio coming out of your computer—even without Stereo Mix.
In fact, Audacity’s feature may be even better than Stereo Mix, assuming you’re willing to use Audacity to record the audio. This method takes advantage of a feature that Microsoft added in Windows Vista named the Windows Audio Session API (WASAPI). The feature also functions in Windows 7, 8, and 10, and helps make up for the lack of a Stereo Mix option on modern Windows PCs.In Audacity, choose the “Windows WASAPI” audio host, and then choose an appropriate loopback device, such as “Speakers (loopback)” or “Headphones (loopback).”RELATED:Click the Record button to start recording the audio in Audacity, and then click Stop when you’re done.
Because you’re using Audacity, you can when you’re done.Update: If this doesn’t work, you may also need to select the correct number of recording channels to match your device using the dropdown box to the right of device selection box. For example, If you have a 7.1 channel headset, select “8.”Audacity’s tutorial website why this feature is actually better than Stereo Mix:“WASAPI loopback has an advantage over stereo mix or similar inputs provided by the soundcard that the capture is entirely digital (rather than converting to analog for playback, then back to digital when Audacity receives it). System sounds playing through the device selected for WASAPI loopback are still captured, however.”In other words, your recorded sound file will be higher-quality when using Audacity’s WASAPI loopback option. Option 3: An Audio CableIf neither of the first two options suit your needs, there’s always the low-tech solution—although it’s a bit of a hack. Plug one end into the line-out (or headphone) jack on your PC, and the other end into the line-in (or microphone) jack. You’ll stop hearing the sound your computer produces, but you can use any audio-recording program to record the “line in” or “microphone” input.

To actually hear the sound, you could get a, and then output the audio to headphones or speakers at the same time you direct it back into your computer. Sure, this is inconvenient and silly compared to to the first two software-only options we talked about. But, if you desperately need to capture the audio coming out of your computer in an application that isn’t Audacity and you don’t have Stereo Mix, the cable trick allows you to do this.Obviously, copyright laws may prevent you from distributing whatever recordings you make in this way, so don’t use these tricks for piracy! After all, even if you were going to pirate some audio, there’d be easier ways to do it than this.Image Credit.
