On Mac OS, how do I record off of Youtube from Audacity?

Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately, the mac version of Audacity doesn't include the "what you hear" option, which records all the sounds your computer makes.

To record a youtube video, first you have to download Soundflower. Then go to Applications-Utilities-Audio MIDI Setup and set your default output to Soundflower (2ch).

Then open Audacity and in Preferences, set your recording device to Soundflower (2 ch)

Then just press record, play the video, and make sure not to click or anything while it's recording.

Good Luck!
