deke Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 So many people post video tutorials online (on Logic and other DAWS) and they seem to handle audio from a mic and the DAW just fine. I have Screenflow and it seems to fail here. Plenty of complaints on their forum about it, so I guess I am not alone. Can anyone please recommend a better screen video capture app - one that in some way acknowledges the existence of USB interfaces? I don't mind paying. It's not for music exactly, but I would like to capture screen video with audio including any audio from a mic (or 2,3 or 4 mics) via the USB interface, the computer (Logic, iTunes... whatever) and internal Mac sounds (such as speech, Siri...).

deke Posted January 24, 2017 Author Share Posted January 24, 2017 Not one reply and with all those cool Logic videos out there? I swear I am not trying to steal trade secrets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skijumptoes Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 OBS is my favourite, and it's free, and you can set up tons of different screen modes/splits/views etc. https://obsproject.com Depending on how you want to set things up, you may also need soundflower too, which lets you route audio internally between apps. But depends on how you want to do things really. I've heard screen flow was pretty good, so it must be something you're doing wrong as your needs don't sound too complicated to me?

TMav Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I just use QuickTime with sound flower and a pair of Bose quiet comforts that have a mic built in. Works quite well. Seems complicated to explain. But if your interested I'll post a quick video on how set it up. Took me a while to figure it out. I had to piece info together I found online. Took a while to get it right. But it's actually very simple and free. Not sure if it would work with an audio interface. But I don't see why not. I have one so I could try if your interested.

deke Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Thanks to both of you. I kind of gave up on this post, to apologies for getting back late. There are quite a few complaints on this issue in the ScreenFlow support forums, but I foolishly did not think about using Soundflower. I'll give that a shot.

Eloise Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Do you want to record video with audio? I used QuickTime, but I think it has limited features. So now I often use Joyoshare Screen Recorder to record Ted talks from computer. To be honest, this tool is very powerful. It can record video and audio at the same time as long as you turn on the system voice. In addition, you can also record voiceover by turning on microphone sound. You can set the recording options and output formats according to your needs in advance. if you really want to record with high quality, it is helpful for you.

MilesNottage Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I know this is quite an old thread but I have created a short video explaining exactly how to do this - I hope you find it helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValliSoftware Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I've never had issues with Screenflow with Logic Pro X. Yes you can use Quicktime X and Blackhole but your next issue will be, overdubbing, splicing videos together, adding text graphics, etc... This is the reason you want to use programs like Final Cut Pro, Screenflow, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonGuitar1974 Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I know this is quite an old thread but I have created a short video explaining exactly how to do this - I hope you find it helpful I just followed your instructions and I can't play my session while screen recording without the cpu maxing out. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
