I have Toast 10 Titanium Pro and in the Spin Doctor drop down menu is an "Install Audio Capture Support" feature which I've installed. This should allow me to record what I hear, but when I start it up it runs for a few seconds and then reports an error. Maybe I'll try the Roxio forum if one exists?
Yes I also think that Audacity is a much better option than Spin Doctor.

Re: Recording what I hear?
Hello
Newbie here, with the same problem. I have a new Mac, having previously had a problem-free Audacity existence with Windows 7.
I have Audacity downloaded and installed, and understand I need Soundflower or Hijack in order to record directly off the web, which is literally the only thing I use Audacity for.
I am clearly being rather unintelligent as I simply cannot see what I have to do with either of these programmes to be allowed to record on to Audacity. I'm evidently missing something but I can't find any instruction as to how to set these extra programmes up correctly. I've downloaded them, opened them in Applications and then, well, I'm stuck. As an inexperienced Mac user I'm slowed by having to get used to the different methods of finding/opening stuff, but it's getting to the point where I feel like deleting the whole lot and asking someone to do my weekly recording for me on their own machine.
Please, please help.

Re: Recording what I hear?
Assuming you have downloaded and installed the correct version of Soundflower for your Mac, these instructions might help:

Thank you. I have a Mac 10.6.5 and I downloaded from the cycling74 url the version for Mac. I'm assuming it's correct but I now genuinely don't know.billw58 wrote:Assuming you have downloaded and installed the correct version of Soundflower for your Mac, these instructions might help:
