It can also be used on Mavericks or Yosemite but it lacks the 'Soundflowerbed' application that lets you hear audio on your computer while Soundflower is set as the system output device. Fortunately Soundflowerbed from Soundflower 1.6.6b can be used on its own with Soundflower 2.0b2.Copy Soundflowerbed.app from the /Applications/Soundflower/ folder to your Desktop or somewhere else.In the same 'Soundflower' folder, double-click 'Uninstall Soundflower.scpt' to uninstall Soundflower 1.6.x.In the window that opens, press the 'Run' button.

Choose Apple Menu > System Preferences and select the Sound preferences panel.

In the Sound preferences panel, choose the Output tab, then select 'Soundflower (2ch)' from the 'Select a device for sound output:' list and turn the Output volume up.

In the same panel, choose the Input tab, select 'Soundflower (2ch)' and and turn the Input volume up.

At this point you will no longer be able to hear what is playing on the computer.

This will route some system alert sounds (such as Mail alert sounds) to the Line Out or Internal Speakers and not to Soundflower.Click on the 'Sound Effects' tab, and from the 'Play sound effects through' dropdown menu choose 'Line Out', 'Headphones' or 'Internal Speakers' (whichever is appropriate for your system).The sound output of the computer is being sent to Soundflower. Thus these sounds will not be recorded by Audacity. Some Macintosh applications are better behaved than others when it comes to alert sounds. Tests on a recent iMac running 10.7.2 show that Mail and TextEdit alert sounds will not be recorded with the above setup, but iCal and Yahoo Messenger alert sounds will be recorded.

To be safe you should disable the sound on any iCal alerts that may occur while you are recording, and quit any other application that may make an alert sound.

Click on the Transport menu and make sure that 'Software Playthrough' is checked.

Go to the application that will be playing the sound you want to record.
