Ever want to record the audio that is playing through your Mac speakers/headphones? Then Blackhole is the tool for you. Once installed, you will need to open the Audio MIDI Setup app (which comes preinstalled on your Mac), created a new multi-output device by clicking the ➕ in the lower-left corner of the window, then checking Blackhole and whichever other output you wand to use to listen to the audio. I actually created a bunch of these, one for each output I might want to use: speakers, headphones, bluetooth…
Now simply choose Blackhole 2ch as the input in your Mac's Sound Preferences Panel, and the multi-output device you created above as the output. You can use QuickTime Player to record, GarageBand, or any other audio recording app.
