How to listen to internal sounds while recording?

Hi there guys --

I was curious on how to listen to internal sounds in Audacity while recording. I'm trying to commentate on Minecraft so I use Soundflower to make the output from the game be the input in Audacity. I also need to listen to the game at the same time. I tried using a Multi-Output setup in the Audio MIDI setup but it didn't seem to be working.. how can I listen to Minecraft while also recording it in Audacity?


Thanks,
dub1808

This sounds like a Soundflower support question, but ...

Please see this page, in particular the section on how to use Soundflowerbed.
