Record your Mac's sound.

ListenUp records whatever's playing on your Mac — system audio, not the microphone. Grab a clip from a call, a stream, a game, anything making sound, then trim it on a waveform before saving.

Record system audio

One click captures whatever's making sound on your Mac — a video call, a stream, a game, a browser tab. Not the microphone.

Trim on a waveform

See the whole recording as a waveform and drag the two handles to pick exactly the part you want. Play the selection back before you commit.

Auto-trim silence

One click finds where the real audio actually starts and ends, and snaps the handles there — no more dragging past dead air by hand.
