The sound is going right from the video into BlackHole and then into the screen recording. So I'll start recording here and I'll bring up Safari again but this time with a YouTube video playing. I'm going to select Record Entire Screen and under Options, if I look at the microphones here, I can see BlackHole is now listed. So I'm going to do Shift Command 5 to open up the screen recording tools. So the sound is going to BlackHole and BlackHole acts like a microphone input when you try to do a screen recording. But now you can actually record using this as an input. So you won't hear anything from this point on. Now this will route your computer sound output, instead of to your speakers, to this extension. Note what that is but then switch it to BlackHole.

For you it might say MacBook Speakers, or iMac Speakers. Change your Output from whatever your normal output is, in this case external headphones for me on my MacPro. All you need to do is go to System Preferences and then go to Sound.

You don't have to setup anything special to do a simple capture of the audio. So once you have the installer you just double click it to run and walk through the steps. I chose the simple two channel version instead of the sixteen channel version. Now you actually have a choice between two downloads. Then you get an email with a link that will allow you to download the installer. It's an open source tool but to get an easy installer for the Mac you just give them your name and email address.

So instead, this time, I'm going to show you how to use something called BlackHole. Now I've shared another tool in the past but people have been saying it's not working quite well with Big Sur and it doesn't look like it's going to be supported in the future.

But if you don't have the money for a pro tool like that you can use some third party utilities so you can do regular screen captures while capturing your computers audio at the same time. Now when I do my screen captures I'm using a professional tool, in my case ScreenFlow, and that will capture the audio from the computer as well as from my microphone.
