Installing the Soundflower Extension

The older way to record system audio, still supported when Screenflick Loopback isn't installed.

The Soundflower extension for macOS must be installed to record the "system audio" playing on your Mac, if you aren't using Screenflick Loopback.

How do I install the Soundflower extension?

Click the "Audio Extension…" button next to "Record System Audio" in Screenflick, click "Install" next to Soundflower, and follow the installer. On macOS High Sierra you also need to allow it in System Preferences. Keep reading.

Why does the extension say Seth Willits?

The extension is code signed by Seth Willits, the developer behind Screenflick. Keep reading.

Installing #

To install the extension

  1. Inside Screenflick, click the Audio Extension… button next to Record System Audio.
  2. Click the Install button in the sheet, next to the Soundflower extension.
  3. Run through the installation process as normal.
  4. The system blocks the extension. On macOS High Sierra, after installation finishes you may see a dialog titled "System Extension Blocked". This is normal, and happens with every system extension being installed because of the security features in High Sierra.
  5. Open the Security & Privacy pane in System Preferences.
  6. Click the Allow button next to "System software from developer Seth Willits was blocked from loading."

Once the extension is allowed, you can use Screenflick to record your system audio.

Why does it say Seth Willits? #

The Soundflower extension is code signed for security by Seth Willits, the developer behind Screenflick, which is why that name is shown. If you email Araelium's support address, you're talking to Seth directly. His name is shown rather than "Araelium Group" because of how Apple's Developer ID system works. It's the same reason many individual developer names appear in the App Store instead of company names.
