Recording streamed radio shows

[SamboG]

In the good old days, when i wanted to record a radio show, i'd hit the play and record button on the tape deck ! Nowadays, it's a different ball game and i was wondering what people use to actually record all the radio shows that get posted in the "Mixes" section of the forum.

Can you even record a streamed radio show?

Cheers

I've done it a couple of times by runnin a cable from the speaker connection in my laptop through the 3rd channel on my mixer, and then back from the booth out into the line-in on my laptop. And just recording into audacity the sound from line in. If that makes any sense? Its not the easiest way to do it, but it works pretty well.

I think ya need something called a stream grabber to do it properly... i think they cost ££ though
