10:17 Final Thoughts
============
Audio Midi Setup Settings (You should see Blackhole 16ch installed):
1. Create Aggregate Device, rename it "QuickTime Player Input", make sure the "BlackHole 16ch" is checked. (If you prefer including your built-in mic sound, then make sure "Built-in Mic" is checked.
2. Create Multi-Output Device, rename it "Screen Record w/ Audio", make sure "BlackHole 16ch" is checked as well as 'Build-in Output", you can listen to it on your phone or speaker.
3. Lastly, go to Settings - Sound, Output should be "Screen Record w/ Audio" (created on step 2)
4. Open QuickTime Player - File - New Screen Recording - Options - Click "QuickTime Player Input" - Record
Enjoy! :)

THANK YOU!!! I am a teacher trying to quickly train up so I can offer classes that can be accessed in person and online, and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate this quick and handy guide that saved me HOURS of work. This is exactly what I needed to be able to do, and this was clear and easy to follow. I appreciated the short explanation of how it works so that I could adapt the settings for what I need and create a couple different aggregates (like for audio only recordings of just system sound). Again, super helpful. I've used a few of your videos now and so am subscribing and a new fan.

For anybody else who may be struggling to determine why their audio is not being recorded, go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Microphone and make sure that QuickTime player is checked (which means it will have access). I followed the instructions in the video but was still not hearing ANY audio (the internal audio AND my mic) on the recordings until I went into the Security settings and checked that box for QuckTime. Thank you for the great video! I need to record a demo of some features for work and this will help me a lot!

Thank you! Thank you! Very well explained in detail. I took the steps one by one and it worked without hassle. I would like to point out that in a newer version of the MacBook, instead of Built-In Output you may see MacBook Speaker, which is basically the same thing. Plus there are three versions of the BlackHole: 2ch, 16ch and 64ch that you may use as you wish. Again, that was truly helpful and I am going to check on your channel more often from now on. 👌🙏☺

[@stevesalgo7562]

Thank you so much for such a clear and easy-to-follow video! I am preparing for a saxophone "repertoire" exam for which I need to video my playing over the top of MP3 backing tracks, and all pieces must be recorded back-to-back in one recording, i.e. editing is not allowed. I was tearing my hair out trying to get a reasonable quality recording of the sax over the top of the backing played through speakers. The sax completely over-powered the backing but if I turned up the volume of the backing, I couldn't easily hear what I was playing! After Googling potential solutions, I came across your video which solved my problem within minutes! I can now play the backing tracks from iRehearse, listen to the backing through headphones, play the sax over the top, and record both the backing and sax in realtime using QuickTime Player! Absolutely perfect outcome. You are a star!

Yeah I have this same issue. It's probably an intentional system to prevent people from illegally recording other peoples works. If you set your output to your mac's default output it should work again, but it's a shame that it does that because I would like to watch KZbin while I have BlackHole enabled. It is sometimes a pain to switch between the two settings before and after recordings.

You're supposed to listen to the audio on your computer whiling recording. That's why in Audio Midi Setup, when you create Multi-Output Device, you want to make sure the 'Build-in Output' option is checked so you can listen to it on your headphone or built-in speaker.

Hey all I solved the problem! For Screen Recording: Master Device: iShowU AudioCapture Sample rate: 44.1KHZ Audio Devices: ticked iShowU AudioCapture USB Interface of choice (make sure drift correction is on) For Aggregate Device: Clock Source: USB Interface of choice Sample rate: 44.1KHZ Audio Devices: ticked USB Interface of choice iShowU AudioCapture (make sure drift correction is on).

Worked perfectly no issues on OS Catalina, thank you for creating this tutorial

[@tariosultan]

You're welcome!

[@surabhiadak9693]

Thank you so much, I watched many tutorials but this worked for me.

[@tariosultan]

You're welcome!

[@DallasWaldoMusic]

this only worked when I put "QuickTime Player Input" as my output, when I used "Screen Record w Audio" the circle would spin and audio would not record. Even after your troubleshooting tip there was no good results. Any reason why this is happening? I followed all the steps or your setup, so for now I'm not seeing any use of the "Screen Record w Audio" Aggregate device

4:13 i dont have an option that says built in output?? can anyone help out

[@DaleAllen]

I also dont have the output option "built in output". I have an option for "Macbook Pro speakers" but that doesn't work as a substitution for "built in output". Hopefully he has a fix.

[@amalinaishah4732]

are you using a macbook air? cause I'm having the same problem too. I can record the screen with internal sound but when I'm recording, I couldn't hear any sound.. maybe because I don't have that built in output. can anyone help please?

[@surfacing373]

I don't have it either but when I selected "Mac Book Pro Speakers" and "External Headphones" in addition to "Black Hole" it works. Hope that helps.

Me too, I couldn't find the built-in option. I was only able to find "MacBook Pro Speakers" and "MacBook Pro Microphone".

[@rotary8562]

Brilliant. Your video say it all.... I have used Soundflower with my old IMac running High Sierra (10.13.6) for quite a while; and loved using with Final Cut Pro. Just bought a new IMac and the MacOS operating system (Big Sur 11.6) doesn't like installing Soundflower (installation failed multiple times) So tried your suggestion + tutorial of downloading and using BlackHole and EUREKA...works like a charm. Many thanks for your great easy to follow advice!

[@elisehill992]

I appreciate your help. That pretty much solved everything. I could only organise the recording levels via Audio-MIDI-Setup > Built-in Output.. Not sure why but it made the audio levels of both internal audio and microphone more even. I sent a test email of the test mov and it worked. SO i am very thankful for your help!!

[@elizabethjulia20]

SO I followed all of your instructions but my mac was unable to play any video once I went to actually record. I tried waiting and restarting multiple times. Only once I deleted Blackhole was I able to use netflix and youtube again. Is this normal/has it occurred for anyone else, and can I fix it and still use Blackhole.

[@mylifedesh3748]

hey lizzy I had same issue " if playback doesn't begin shortly, try restarting your device" when I run any video so I diabled the Audio MDI blackhole settings what been shown then it worked back , @ Torio productions do you mind let us know this trouble shoot optoins ? I want to work on recording videos with blackhole as mentioned but setting didnt work for my newest MacCatolina

[@margotvanbrakel4178]

I struggled, because it just wouldn't work. But then I went back to security settings and found out that Quicktime didn't have access to microphone. That solved the whole problem. So maybe useful for someone else. System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Microphone (left menu) > tik the Quicktime box.

Same here.

[@coltenquackenbush23]

Dre AKBAD Thornton ye, I tried everything, you g it just works for some and not for others, so I downloaded this app called capto and that isn’t even working, I guess I am just cursed when it comes to recording a screen 😕

[@alt5222]

It work for Me I dont know what u did Wrong

[@MicahLouiise]

It should definitely work, just needs more tinkering. Remember to do 3 things when you record internal audio using Quicktime screen recording in order: (1.) Go to Sound Preferences > Ensure that Input = Input Aggregator, and Ensure that Output = Output Aggregator (i.e. the aggregators that you made which includes the Blackhole 16ch ticked). (2.) In Quicktime settings, make sure that your Microphone = Input Aggregator. Begin screen record. Screen recording with internal audio should be working now with KZbin videos, or stuff on your local computer But if you want this to work in a video conferencing call, you have to go to the Video Conferencing's (e.g. Skype or Zoom's) audio/video settings and change the Speaker to your Output Aggregator (your microphone should still be your regular one, not the input aggregator one). (3.) After you have finished recording, make sure to go back to Sound Preferences > and put the settings back into your non-Aggregator input and non-aggregator output and you should be able to hear sound again. Let me know if this doesn't help though. But yeah, the 3 steps above in the order that it's written in should work with just about anything you're trying to screen record w/audio on your computer. Good luck!

[@coltenquackenbush23]

MAGLAYA thank you so much for the advice, sadly I did try that and did some tinkering around and still nothing seemed to work, even though I selected multiple outputs when I made the custom thing for the output, my computer sound still never worked...

[@johnrobertson7583]

Pause the video in the places where he mentions a new task...especially if he has some subtitles...and then take a screenshot at each one. then all you have to do is slowly go thru all your screenshots and you wont miss any steps...
