There are 2 main ways for recording the audio output of your DAW inside your Mac for the purpose of creating tutorials or beat making videos. If you have an audio interface with a loopback feature you already have this option right out of the box. If not, there’s a free way which works with any audio interface or even with the built-in sound card on the Mac and in this video I will give you step by step instructions on how to set it up.
You can also use this for sampling from any application on your Mac, such as RU-vid in your browser, Spotify, Apple Music, etc.

Hi there! Thank you so much for this video. It was so helpful. It worked! You don't know how much trouble I had trying to record my screen using OBS... I noticed an "Encoder Preset" setting in the output section. If you have that option now on OBS, what did you set that option on?

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

Glad it helped! The encoder preset is set to "veryfast" but if you have a powerful computer you can try "fast" or "faster" and see if it improves the quality of your recording.

@ThomMillsDrums Год назад

Great video, so easy to follow and straight to the point, thanks so much! I'm all setup but experiencing latency, I'm recording 12 channels of live drums along to a track All in Logic, but there is latency with what I'm playing on the drums live to the audio track if that makes sense? Even when the drums are played on their own it almost feels like there is an echo type effect happening, any help would be much appreciated!

Actually all good, just fixed it, needed to tick drift correction on both blackhole & my interface!

Hey, my pleqsure! I wouldn't be surprised if it interferes with them in some way, but I don't have a pair of Airpods to test it.

@baytheproducer Год назад

Thanks. Where do you record your voiceover mic to?

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

I record it in OBS as well - create an Audio source and choose your audio interface as audio device for that source.

@Deerob 9 месяцев назад

Hi, would you happen to know of a method that does what you do here but also incorporates yet another stereo pair of I/O for say, a analogue mastering chain? I use cubase and created a hardware insert (2ch in, 2ch out) and I would need to record these changes I make on the hardware in OBS too. But even with Blackhole 16ch i seem to get only 2I/O. 🤷‍♂️

@LowHeatBeats 9 месяцев назад

OBS on Mac doesn't see the separate inputs of an audio interface. All the inputs are recorded together and there's no way to separate them. Not sure I understand your use case 100% so let me know if this answered your question.

@Mainamusicc 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for this video. How do you set up your mic. Would your mic audio come from your OBS or would it come from Ableton?

@LowHeatBeats 11 месяцев назад

I set it up on a separate channel in OBS, so I can process it without affecting the DAW audio. I don’t have it running through Ableton.

@Mixedbydavey 11 месяцев назад

When OBS records, does it mix the mic and the Ableton output together? I keep getting them mixed as one embedded into the video. How can I have 2 audio stems? One for Ableton out and one for mic?

@LowHeatBeats 11 месяцев назад

@@Mixedbydavey Yes, they are recorded mixed in the same file. I don't know if it's possible to record them separately. There's an OBS plugin called Source Record that lets you record different video sources to different output files, but I don't know if that applies to audio as well.

@huntrrams Год назад

thanks for this! how do i record one section on my track ( like a closeup of a drum track).

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

No problem!

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

You can resize the OBS capture source to zoom on the drum track, but you're probably better off zooming to it while you're editing the video after recording.

@huntrrams Год назад

@@LowHeatBeats thanks!

@maxhard5970 28 дней назад

Cool! It's a good way. he earned it. But I have a problem. I can't separate the sound left and right. I have it in mono for a reason. Can you tell me why that is?

@LowHeatBeats 28 дней назад

Hmm, I'm not sure, for me the DAW audio has always worked in stereo. I still record all my videos with this method and never had a problem with mono sound.

@afroplug 2 месяца назад

How to you record this Video : OBS too? Recording your own camera and Computer Screen?

@LowHeatBeats 2 месяца назад

I recorded the screen with OBS but I think the camera was recorded externally. But these days I usually record everything with OBS, including the camera.

@untoldstory176 Месяц назад

Hey, Big uP! how do you record your music videos? the same? There are of course different options, it would be nice if you would say more about them. I would like to put something of mine on YT at some point.

@@LowHeatBeats Very Nice Thx lot!

@peterkroman Год назад

That is really helpful. Thanks. But I have problems with delay when recording from my webcam. The voice is rather much delayed from the video. How can I fix that 😁

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

Glad it was helpful! Usually the video is delayed and not the audio. But if that's the case, right click on your video source, choose Filters and in the Effect filters section you can add a Render Delay. Then experiment with the amount of delay and set it so that it lines up with your audio.

@peterkroman Год назад

@@LowHeatBeats You are right of course. It is the video that is delayed. Can I fix that too? And it also seems that the video quality is rather poor. I use a 2K webcam and a MAC mini with 16 GB RAM.

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

@@peterkroman I don't know why you're getting bad video quality, there could be many reasons. But to fix the sync, go to Edit - Advanced Audio Properties and set Sync Offset for your audio source to delay it.

@junnianmusic 5 месяцев назад

Hey, thanks for the video. Very good, but I have one question. Is it possible to separate the metronome, so that you can hear it in Ableton but not record it in obs. I've tried a few things but can't get it to work. Best

@LowHeatBeats 5 месяцев назад

I would assume that it’s not possible. You will need something with more extensive routing capabilities to do that.

@junnianmusic 5 месяцев назад

@@LowHeatBeatsOh, that's sad... Under Windows it is easy to solve the problem with the Reaplugs Reastream VST. I hope that I will find a solution. I will let you know. Thank you

@patrickj8581 3 месяца назад

Hey thanks for the video. So, by following those steps I shouldn't get any ambient audio from my environment right? For example, I wont hear my dog barking when I screen record right?

@LowHeatBeats 3 месяца назад

Yeah, just make sure to mute the mic audio source in OBS if you're using a device with a built-in mic like a Macbook.

@mattremblay_ Год назад

this works for recording ableton audio but i cant seem to get audio from the rest of my computer like youtube audio, spotify, my own wav files, etc?

@LowHeatBeats Год назад

It works for that too, you have to set the multi-output device as output device for your whole system in the Sound section of System Preferences.

@MrEffectify 5 месяцев назад

I use Cubase on Mac and I’m unable to have independent input and output devices. I can send the DAW audio out if I have the virtual device selected but I can’t do any input recording (instruments etc.) while recording.

@LowHeatBeats 5 месяцев назад

Oops replied from the wrong account. Yeah, some DAWs don't allow that. It's a bummer. I think as of Mac OS Ventura there's another, built-in option to capture system audio, you might want to investigate if that would allow you to use inputs in Cubase while capturing the audio.

@flowtibeats 7 месяцев назад

@@LowHeatBeats you didn’t really explain everything but I figured it out

@LowHeatBeats 7 месяцев назад

Glad you figured it out! I still think I explained everything relevant to the topic of the video. If I had gone through all the other preferences that are not related to capturing the audio it would have watered down the video, as this isn't a general tutorial about Live's audio preferences.

@bloomingbeats1318 4 месяца назад

Hello! so i ran into an issue im not sure if you were aware of... I cannot record anything while using OBS. What if i want to stream making a beat and want to record with a microphone. It will not let me change the input of my audio track in pro tools, it i greyed out when i use the multiple output.

@bloomingbeats1318 4 месяца назад

and im not talking about inside of obs, im talking about inside of the session in pro tools.

@LowHeatBeats 3 месяца назад

I doubt that this has anything to do with recording system audio in OBS. I haven’t experienced a problem like this.

@bloomingbeats1318 3 месяца назад

when you change the output to multiple outputs. it wont let me change the inputs of my tracks anymore.@@LowHeatBeats

@LowHeatBeats 3 месяца назад

@@bloomingbeats1318 I assume this is because Pro Tools doesn't allow you to have different audio devices for input and output like Ableton Live does. In Live you can use the Multiple output device as an output and your regular audio interface as input, so recording works fine. I've never used Pro tools so I can't confirm this 100% percent but this is the most likely reason.

@bloomingbeats1318 5 месяцев назад

its not caputring the audio inside of the daw, its capturing the audio from my mic on my computer

@LowHeatBeats 5 месяцев назад

If you followed the instructions correctly it should record the DAW audio as shown in the video. Also you have to mute the mic audio source if you’re not going to use it.

@Jhizzle473 8 месяцев назад

Is there a way to do this on pc?

@LowHeatBeats 8 месяцев назад

@johnwitcher7039 3 месяца назад

i record it but there is a echo on video why?

@LowHeatBeats 3 месяца назад

Can you be more specific? I’m not sure if you’re referring to audio echo or the video feedback that happens when you record the same screen that you have OBS on.
