Pick your sources
Record all system audio, or pick out specific apps. Either way you can add microphones alongside.
Set your levels
Each source gets its own volume slider and live level meter, adjustable while recording.
Record
Hit record. Hear the full mix through your speakers as it captures, then find your file in ~/Music/SoundshineRecord.
Key Features
What you get in every recording
System Audio, Apps & Microphones
All system audio, or individual applications via Core Audio process taps, plus any microphones, mixed into one file.
Per-Source Volume & Meters
Every selected source has its own volume slider and live level meter. Balance the mix live, while the recording runs.
Live Passthrough Monitoring
Hear the mix as it records. Tapped apps are silenced at your speakers and monitored through Soundshine Record instead, so what you hear is exactly what you record.
- No echo, no double audio
- Real-time level meters per source
Clean File Formats
Save as AAC (.m4a, default), WAV, or AIFF at 48 kHz stereo, straight to ~/Music/SoundshineRecord or a folder you choose.
No Driver, No Hassle
Process taps mean there's nothing to install into the system, no admin prompt, and no coreaudiod restart. Grant recording permission once and you're set.
