Record youtube right into ableton

[baseinstinct]

Has anyone found a way to record anything that is playing on windows without any physical cables on Windows 10?
That must be amazing. I have tried recording loops straight into hardware sampler and the value of having no intermediary steps are quite amazing.

There are some virtual cables, but this has never worked or me.

I use Loopback on Mac.
Did you try this one for Windows ?

On my previous setup, and it was unreliable: slow and would mess up until a restart. That's why I am checking if someone has proven some solution in daw environment.

What soundcard are are you using? Some of them like a lot of the RME devices offer loopback record routing via Totalmix. I think MOTU and UAD offer something similar if I remember right.

I am so much used to portability that it'll need to be some 3rd-party software solution. Thanks.

Not a solution for Ableton, but Audacity provides its own loopback feature in the preferences menu. Just need to set your recording device to whatever audio output you're using but with (loopback) next to it.
