Ok, for all those using Windows Vista, I’ve cracked it!

Go to control panel > sounds

Click recording.

Right click under the shown devices and tick “show disabled devices”.

You should now see “Stereo Mix”

Now right click Stereo Mix and enable it.

Now launch Audacity and choose stero mix as your input device and move the mic slide bar to maximum.

Job done!

You’re welcome

Hey there,

I don’t understand anything from technology and this thing works like a charm! A gal which is ignorant as myself, if I can get this things done anyone can do it.

Thank you so so much

Sir, The above mentioned routine for downloading mp3′s from Spotify does not work. I have been using Adacity in various ways for some time now, but can not find a way of getting it to look at any music file other than through the USB circuit via an appliance or importing the file. Even valid working files on my PC played through Media Player do not register on Audacity. I can download mp3′s from Spotify, import them to Audacity but they produce no wave form. Unless you know what Spotify do to protect their file you will not succeed.

This isn’t working for me. I just get no sound coming through in Audacity (tried a few other recorders too).

If I play something via Windows Media Player (or VLC or Firefox), I can get the audio coming through in Audacity but if I play something in Spotify I get nothing.

If I play something in WMP and Spotify at the same time, and record in Audacity, I only get the audio from WMP recorded, even though I can hear both!

Nice tip, I’ve also been getting the music I need with one of these apps for recording streams.I find it much useful and of course safer that using any torrents. I prefer Tunebite for downloading music from Spotify; since it records both audio and video streams from various sources I found it to come in handy all the time. Although I for one I prefer to save the recorded songs from Spotify as mp3′s, it’s easier for me to listen to that music on any device I need.

It’s actually pretty easy to use Tunebite for this job. If u need any help getting things started here’s also a little tutorial, that should do the trick for u:
