Jul 31, 2009 I have read this and other posts and I am still a bit confused. I need to extract audio only from a few clips to then edit in garageband. I believe I want to use.wav since the application I am going to eventually use them in works with wav best. Question: Q: can i record streaming audio with garage band? I just switched to a Mac. On my PC I had software that allowed me to record streaming audio (I'm a music teacher - I frequently need audio examples of songs and performances that are not sold).
