Sponsor |  MonkeyMagico | Oct 20, 2007 11:59am | The question of how to record streaming audio comes up often,
so in response to this: Audacity is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds. It is available for Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows, GNU/Linux, and other operating systems.
download it from here: audacity.sourceforge.net [audacity.sourceforge.net]
don't forget to pick this up from the optional downloads:
LAME MP3 encoder - Allows Audacity to export MP3 files.
just install Audacity , unzip the encoder folder so you can view the files take the lame_enc.dll file and save it on your desktop
Check out the this video tutorial to get you up and running:

PS: Runs on Vista too. |

I was thinking if I play the music in another player then somehow record it with Audacity but can't suss how to do it.I can't import You Tube video into Audacity, so guess if I can't import into the programme I can't record with it?
Catch ya sometime soon.
Still haven't made a finetune player as yet...Plenty a time ay? |

Sponsor | | MonkeyMagico | Oct 25, 2007 12:24pm | | Hey Pj make sure to get the lame mp3 encoder dll from the optional extras and enable your recording device in xp... then open Audacity-select edit-select preferences and set the recording options to stereo and if you have enabled your recording device (your sound card)correctly it should be listed in the recording options under recording device already... after all that play whatever and click the record button(no need to import anything)... these steps are outlined in the video from the first post on this thread. Just follow along step by step good luck... |

| | patrickjluke | Oct 25, 2007 2:41pm | Cheers MM.I watched the tutorial but I don't have the option of stereo mix in Audacity like on the video.I've tried every different combination of settings in sounds & audio devices. Would that be my sound card not supporting that function.My computer is less than a year old.
