Remember when you used to record the charts? Well, here’s another way of recording on your Mac without using an programs that you need to pay for.

All you need to do is download Soundflower, which you can do here.

Once that’s all installed, start up Last FM software player. Change the soundcard to Soundflower (2ch).

Close down the player and then restart, and start playing something from the player. You probably won’t hear anything. This is good news at this stage!

Open up Garageband and create a new music project. Make a new Real Instrument track. If it’s coloured blue, then you’re doing okay.

Go to the garageband preferences, then go Audio/MIDI option. For audio input, choose Soundflower(2ch). Make sure the audio output is the built-in output (or your normal audio interface if you have one installed). It will ask you to confirm - click yes.

Now you’re back on the main screen. Select the blue track you made earlier, make sre that it is record-enabled (press the circular record button on the channel strip NOT on the transport controls).

Just to make sure that it works, and while the blue channel is still selected press the ‘i’ button at the bottom right hand corner. Make sure the input source is correct (should say Soundflower still), and select monitoring to be on (it’s defaulted to off, I think). As long as music is playing from your Last FM player, you should hear it through garageband. Finally, press ‘R’ on your keyboard (or the record button on the transport controls at the bottom of the screen) to record Last FM! Here’s a final screenshot with the monitoring turned on and the channel record-enabled.
