How do I screen record on mac with audio?
Yes, mac’s built-in recorder can’t capture system sound, which is a pain. I use aisessoft screen recorder—it records screen, system audio, and mic together without any hassle!

Worth a try!
Screen recording on a Mac can be incredibly useful for creating tutorials, recording webinars, capturing gameplay, or saving video calls. Fortunately, macOS comes with built-in tools that allow you to record your screen with audio for free. The most popular and easy-to-use option is QuickTime Player, which is pre-installed on all Macs.
How to screen record on mac with audio free
QuickTime Player is a simple and effective tool for screen recording on Mac. It allows you to record your screen with internal audio (system sound) or external audio (microphone).
- Go to your Applications folder or search for "QuickTime Player" using Spotlight (Cmd + Space).
- In QuickTime Player, click on File in the menu bar, then select New Screen Recording.
- A recording toolbar will appear. Before starting, click the small arrow next to the Record button to reveal additional options.
- Click the Record button, then choose whether to record the entire screen or a selected portion by dragging to select an area.
- Click Record to start. A countdown will begin, and your screen recording will start. To stop recording, click the Stop button in the menu bar or press Cmd + Ctrl + Esc.
- Once stopped, the recording will automatically open in QuickTime Player. You can trim, edit, or save it by clicking File > Save.
Note: QuickTime Player doesn't natively support recording system audio, but you can use BlackHole (a free virtual audio driver) to achieve this.
