I am confused. So for the "Headphones (For Recording)" audio device I am creating, what if I don't have headphones plugged in. Do I also make sure "MacBook Pro Speakers" are checked? Or is it one or the other?
@@kodepot7521 You can follow the exact steps as using headphones but with any other device, such as MacBook Pro Speakers. So the Multi-Output Device would be called "Speakers (For Recording)" with MacBook Pro Speakers checked first, then BlackHole 2ch checked second. See 5:45 in the video, I covered this briefly. Hope that helps.
I usually do not comment on anything but YOU just saved me. I was thinking and clicking on stuff for days because I wanted to record something inside a game withou hearing me clicking and rustling. It finally worked. THANK YOU!
Here is the keystroke to access Quicktime command+shift 5. command+shift 3 is screenshot, command=shift 4 will allow you to grab a portion of the screen.
I tried the steps multiple times with headphones and speakers and even an audio interface and could not get it to work. Hopefully you can post another method because that would be greatly appreciated!
Don't usually comment on videos, but this helped a ton, I've been trying to capture internal audio for 3 months until I came across your video, thanks a lot. :)
Thank you. I'm here because everyone else kept leaving out crucial steps in their videos. Like HOW TO STOP THE SCREEN RECORD. 🤦🏾♂️ I appreciate the detailed video.

Its best just to create a Multioutput Device, so there is no need to change the Sound at all (speaker or headphones). You'll only need to change the actual computer sound settings, and select the Output as a Multioutput and the Input as a Blackhole 2ch.
Thank you so much for this tutorial, just got the M1 MacBook Air the other day and every time I've tried to record something there's been no audio and it'd done my head in, now I can get stuff done.
Thank you so much. I used to record on my iPad so I didn't realize that I couldn't record on a Macbook with input audio. I recorded so much yesterday but when I started editing there was no sound. I tried an app called Record it from the App Store. They do give the option to record with audio (extra 1.1Mb software installation) but you gotta pay to record for more than 5 mins at a time. Thanks again
I think what's most annoying about the screen record audio thing is we know they can do it because screen record on iphone auto-saves the audio as well, dammit apple! Cheers for the tip here
@@jaymayor so it was working fine yesterday .. now when I record with headphones .. now the screen recorded audio I get is like so low you have to turn up the volume to max to barely hear it ...I didn't change settings it just stopped working right all of a sudden.. any suggestions I already tried reinstalling
@@jaymayor This was working yesterday .. then it disappeared so I had to reinstall it.. now it doesn't even show up where I added it says for headphones record
Thank you from one nerd to the other. This was so helpful and exactly what I needed. No fluff just information. You saved me so much time. I use to have to re-run my recording from my phone to a separate app and then upload to the computer.
Thank you so much for this video ! It is easy, quick and it's actually the only video that i found on youtube about this topic . Have a great day :) !!
What if when I try to create the Multi-output device my only options on the right are Blackhole and Macbook Speakers? Do I select that speaker option instead of headphones ?
I have simililar problem on my mac mini m1. I can only choose my headphones for that and the audio is reeeeally quiet and doesn't pick up quiet sounds. Only loud ones and they're suoer quiet too in the recording.
You need to have headphones plugged in or the External Headphones option won't show up. Try plugging some in and see if it works then. Hope that helps!
This the best and updated tutorial about the screen recording process using QuickTime into new Mac OS Ventura. Thank you. One question: how do you zoom your screen video into the recording process?, is there any shortcut to do that using KeyNote ?
Works. I like how you use the circle to put you face in the demo. I do software demo videos for my area of tech. I liked your technique, I sent a link to your video and a screenshot to my friend Tim in U.K. b/c he also does how to videos.
I also recently started my TH-cam channel, I am not using Mac, however I just came here to support this video with like :) Don't be upset, that your first video got much more views than second one ;) You are doing great videos (much better than me with my Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 pro) and in the future you will get even more views ;)
I dont know if i did anything wrong but can you tell my why when i screen recording the volume is extremely quiet? Even if i record on max volume its still extrememly quiet. please reply thank you :)
Hey there! For my videos I’m using FCPX. The main transitions I use are wipe, spin, and cross dissolve, and these are all basic out of the box transitions that most software should support, nothing fancy. For the banners/titles, I’m using a simple callouts template from Envato Elements. I’ve pre-configured a bunch of these and put them in a library so I can easily copy/paste them into my videos. To do this yourself, find a callouts/titles template for your editing software and then pre-make a bunch of them so you can just grab and go. Hope this helps.
Absolutely crazy that we can't do this from the factory without having to download some sketchy extension that can now listen to everything you do on your computer...
Thank You so much! i struggled to find some video like this. When i tried it out it didn't work like i thought like when i Recorded it would record the sound of my Gameplay but i couldn't hear it, And now i can Record my Gameplay post it on TH-cam to show my friends or in the Communications server in Discord, Tysm that helped alot!
Thank you so much for the great video. I really like you include the written cheat sheets, I was able to do a screen shot to copy then printed it to do my setup.
Thanks! I wanted to both solve a specific problem for people, and figure out a process for doing tutorials like this. Possible next video is on setting up an affordable home studio. Curious, what are you working on and what are you interested in learning?
Hey! I just followed this tutorial, thank you so much. However it doesn't capture my microphone audio. I would like to capture both the sound coming from my computer, (that's working, I hear it in my headphones now) AND the sound of me recording with my headset mic. Do you know how to do that ?
You're welcome! For mixing mic audio in, you can try adding it to the list in the Aggregate Device step, after step 9 (you'd check the box for your mic, in addition to BlackHole 2ch). However, it's hard to get a good mix of volumes if you're trying to add in your mic like that. So you might want to try something designed more for mixing multiple inputs, like OBS Studio. That should get the mic mixing part up and running easily. Hope that helps
Thank you so much ! You saved me. I wonder, is it possible to also add our microphone to be heard in the recording as well with the internal computer audio ?
Having gone through all the good advice in your tutorial, my camera only wants to record me and not what is on the screen. I cannot seem to find a way of changing this.
Hi Jay, I was so happy that could solve the issue but unfortunately did not work to me (neither with AiriPods nor with "speakers for recordin" . I tried so many options and did all the steps : ( Thanks anyway for your video.
love mac but like why do i need to watch tutorial for wanting to do like every basic thing LMAO and the internet never even knows what im asking thank you so much.
Hi thanks for video. Having issue ..I set audio device as black hole and set up my Mac speakers and black hole as in your video ..I can record the audio that I a, playing on screen but can’t hear it live as I am recording. After recording is done and I set my speakers back to Mac speakers I can hear recording I did. I would like to be able to hear from Mac speakers what I am recording live?
Just an FYI here...My Norton 360 Security software (i.e. antivirus) popped up a "Danger" warning page, when I tried to visit the existential.audio/blackhole page. So, I'll have to find another way to re-route the audio into QuickTime. Thanks for your video.
I've followed all of these steps to the letter (three times now) and I'm still unable to capture audio with my screen recordings. Any troubleshooting tips?
*Note: You must have headphones plugged in to see External Headphones in the list, or if you don't have headphones choose MacBook Speakers (see **5:44**). If you don't see the audio icon at the top (🔊 or 🎧), click the icon that looks like two toggle switches, then click Sound.*
