iShowU Audio Capture was the best, but it doesn't seem to work anymore with Ventura.
You just had to select it as the sound source in QuickTime parameters. So easy.
I know there are alternatives, but it gets complicated.
Does anyone knows something as easy to use as iShowU Audio Capture?
Thanks!
Mac mini, macOS 13.6
to record the mac's internal sound with quicktime (or also “shift-command-5”) you need additional software. i use the free BlackHole Virtual Audio Driver. then you can choose "BlackHole 2ch" in the recording options instead of "Built-in Microphone."
you will also need to set up a multi-output device in your audio MIDI setup utility to be able to both hear and record the internal audio at the same time.
to set up a multi-output device:
Open Audio MIDI Setup: (found in /Applications/Utilities)
hit the '+' button in the bottom left corner and select "Create Multi Output Device"
then in the panel that appears on the right, in the Multi-Output Device tab, select "Built-in Output" AND "BlackHole 2ch". (and, if you want, any of your other connected devices.)
once you do that, (and BEFORE recording) you can choose "BlackHole 2ch" or "Multi-Output Device" in your menubar "sound options".
to both hear the speakers and record the audio at the same time, choose "Multi-Output Device". before choosing multi-out, set the internal speakers' volume to a comfortable level first. you cannot control the volume once you are in multi-out mode.
and this may seem complicated, but once you set it up initially, it's just a matter of changing the menubar sound options depending on wether or not you want to make a recording.
