Capture audio with Audacity
If you want to manually record the audio, or only need a segment of the video's sound, you can use the free software Audacity to capture the audio. To proceed, follow the steps below.
NoteIf your computer has an integrated sound card, you'll not be able to download streaming audio. Therefore, the steps in this section will not work for you. It's best to use an online service, as discussed above, to download audio from a YouTube video.
- Download Audacity from the Audacity official website.
- Once the download is complete, run the setup program and follow the steps to install Audacity on your computer.
- Open Audacity using the shortcut on your desktop, or run it from your Start menu.
- In the menu bar at the top of the Audacity window, click Edit, then Preferences.
- In the Preferences window, in the Devices section, locate the Recording section.
- In the Device drop-down list, select the Stereo Mix option. If Stereo Mix is not available, it is likely disabled. To enable it:
- Open the Control Panel on your computer and click Hardware and sound, then the Sound icon in the Control Panel window.
- In the Sound window, click the Recording tab, right-click in a blank space in that tab, and select Show Disabled Devices from the drop-down menu.
- The Stereo Mix device should now be visible. Right-click on that device and select Enable.
If the Stereo Mix option is still not available, it is likely because your computer has an integrated sound card. Stereo Mix is not available with many integrated sound cards and you cannot download streaming audio from a YouTube video. We recommended trying the online service or YouTube-dl solution instead.
- Click OK to save the sound settings change.
- If Audacity was open when you enabled Stereo Mix, close and re-open the program. Stereo Mix should now be available in the Recording Device list.
You can select the settings in steps four and five in the main Audacity program window as well. There are four drop-down lists located above the middle of the program window. The second drop-down list from the left is for the Recording Device (next to microphone icon). Select Stereo Mix in this drop-down list.
- While still in Preferences, select 2 (Stereo) in the Channels drop-down list to enable stereo sound.
- Click OK when you are satisfied with your settings.
- Access the YouTube video you want to record. Unless you have a fast connection, we suggest getting the video fully loaded (allow it to complete the buffering process) before recording.
- Once your video is loaded on the YouTube website, click the record button (red circle) in Audacity, then switch back to the YouTube video and click play. As the video is playing, you'll see action in the sound wave section in Audacity. When done recording, click the stop button (black square to the left of the record button) in Audacity.
Doing it this way causes a section at the beginning of the sound file to be blank. To remove this section of blank audio, highlight it by clicking and dragging your mouse, and then press the delete key on the keyboard. You can also enable the Sound-based Recording option in Audacity to eliminate the blank section of audio.
- When you have completed your recording, click File, select Export, then select Export as MP3. Make sure MP3 Files in selected in the Save as type drop-down list. Choose a location to save the MP3 file, enter a file name, and click Save.

For older versions of Audacity, you may need to install LAME MP3 file support to save the recorded audio as an MP3 file. See the section below for additional information.
Getting MP3 support for Audacity
- To save the file in MP3 format, you need to get LAME for Audacity from the LAME download site. LAME is available for both the Windows and macOS operating system.
- Once downloaded, install LAME on the computer.
- When you have completed your recording, click File and choose Export. Select MP3 Files in the Save as type drop-down list. Enter a File name and click Save.
- After selecting the MP3 Files type, you may be prompted for the location of the LAME file. Point to the lame_enc.dll file, located at C:Program FilesLame for Audacity if you used the default install location. If you extracted from a compressed file, it's in the extracted folder.
