I would like to be able to record on a Logic track the online sounds that I can hear through the computer audio. How can I route such audio into Logic? For example, in a language site, I can click on how certain words are pronounced. I want to be able to record that sound in Logic. Thanks for your help!

You need to install some software that will create a virtual audio output on your computer and then set Logic Pro's Settings to receive audio from the virtual output. Below are the steps to follow.

(1) Download and install the 2 channel (stereo) version of BlackHole. An explanation of the installation process can be found in a YouTube video.

(2) In your computer's System Preferences, click on the Sound icon, select the Output tab and then set your computer's sound output to BlackHole 2ch. You can also change the sound output to BlackHole 2ch via your computer's menu bar, if you have ticked the checkbox next to "Show volume in menu bar" in the sound settings of System Preferences. When clicking on the volume icon in the menu bar, if you press the option key before clicking on the volume icon, you will be able to select the audio output and input separately.

(3) Open Logic Pro's Settings, select the Audio tab and then change the audio input to BlackHole 2ch.

(4) Create an audio track in Logic Pro, click the Input Monitoring button (with the “I” icon) in the track header, press the record button and then switch to your web browser and play the words on the language site. The audio will be recorded on the audio track in Logic Pro.

If you encounter any difficulties, there is a discussion thread at Gearspace which might be able to help you:
