  • put some sounds like Spotify on and play
  • want to record this sound in Audacity of Macbook

My audacity

My setup

I think I should change some of those scroll up things. I have changed all logical things there but cannot get signals from phone to computer. Only sounds from microphone.

The newest OSX cannot find the device in Settings > Sound

How can you record the sounds from your phone through 3.5-3.5 mm cable in your computer's Audacity?

You simply need to select the "Line" or "Line in" as the recording device in Audacity. If you don't have one it might be disabled.

  • Yes. The problem is that the system cannot find the phone when I connect it to my Macbook. How can you find the disabled devices?

  • I opened a OSX specific question about this here apple.stackexchange.com/questions/140120/… since this question of this thread is not about OSX but Audacity.
