Record music playing through your computer

Record the sound being played through a selected Windows output. Use music you have permission to capture.

Select the correct output

Start playback in your browser or player. Select its speaker or headphone device in Free Sound Recorder, and leave microphones unchecked for playback-only audio.

Other sounds sent to that same output can be included. Quiet unwanted notifications and applications before you begin.

Record and listen

Make a short test, stop and play it back. Once the source and level are right, record the section you need. The app captures playback rather than downloading a music link.

Trim and export

Remove unwanted silence or endings and export MP3, WAV or FLAC. If you added a microphone, balance its separate track before exporting the mix.

Save an .amss session for later editing.
