DesktopAudio
Record what your Mac plays. Local files, no cloud.
DesktopAudio records whatever your Mac is playing and saves it as an m4a on your Mac. Podcasts, live streams, webinars, calls: if you can hear it, you can keep it. Local always: local recording, local files, no cloud, no account. It never touches your microphone and never asks for mic permission. It's also the missing half of macOS screen recording: Cmd+Shift+5 captures video but no system audio. Run DesktopAudio alongside it and you have both. $19 one-time. No subscription.
DesktopAudio is a Menu Bar Apps company. It launched on Product Hunt on Aug 2, 2026, with 4 upvotes. Adamlead has 1 person on file at DesktopAudio.
