Recording selections from streaming audio

Sorry if this is old hat to most of you.

I really wanted to learn Labhras O Cadhla’s setting of Caoineadh Inion Ui Mhuiriosa as a slow air, which involves much repeated listening. A pain with streaming audio.

So I finally got off me arse and downloaded Audacity (freeware)from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Once you select “Wave Out Mix” as your input, it’ll capture whatever is playing through your speakers (or headphones). So now I have a manageable size clip. Easy.
Of course I could have used the CD, but it hasn’t arrived in the mail yet.

I could kiss you :wink:

Excuse me, but that should be in the “Piper Love” thread.

Why is that exactly PJ? Did I solve a problem for you?

I had asked about this on the other forum:
