App for Recording PC Sound?

[demon42]

I am looking for a free App, the smaller size the better, that will simply record "the sound that my computer is making."

In otherwords, If I was listening to streaming music, I could record it (That doesn't happen to be the reason I am looking for this, but something similar)

It would be nice to record directly to mp3, but wav files are cool too.

Any ideas?

There's a bunch of programs out there that do what you want. Personally, I use Nero WaveEditor. I know it's not free but it came with the Nero burning suite. If you already have Nero then you dont have to look for another sound recorder. Otherwise, there is Audacity. It's free and open sourced.

Link to Audacity.
You'll also need the LAME Binaries if you want to save your files to mp3's.

Sweet, I already had Audacity, but I forgot that it records! (been awhile)

Thanks, it works great!
