If Presonus did what you want they would have a huge copyright issue going on allowing recording of anything off the web in their DAW. Another solution is a You tube converter, but that is just as time-consuming. I know Audacity but it would be easier to record straight into Studio One. Shanabit wrote robbyvantgroenewolt wroteIt is very unfortunate that an expensive program such as Studio One cannot provide a solution for this in their software. So whatever is playing (Spotify, YouTube, Tidal HIFI, a game, whatever) will be perfectly recorded. This specific recording input in Audacity will capture the system audio perfectly straight off the digital stream. Where 'blahblah' is your system mobo default output, such as 'Realtek' or whatever.

One of the input combinations is Windows WASAPI > Blahblah (loopback). Then read the doc on its inputs for recording. If replacing your audio interface isn't an option for you, then there's a software-based workaround. And you can use it in reverse to record the digital stream directly off of YouTube or Spotify or system game sounds, etc.

I can now directly stream/record my DAW from the Loopback channel in OBS or Zoom or whatever. I bought a MOTU M4 to replace my older Audient iD14, and the Loopback channel works great.

I (think?) the Focusrite Clarett has this? But what I know for sure is that some new (and excellent and cheap) interfaces have this, such as the new MOTU M2/M4 or the new Audient EVO. RME interfaces have had this for a while. The only thing that works perfectly without bugs or glitches or buffering issues is an audio interface that natively provides a 'Loopback' channel in its set of drivers. I've never had luck with virtual ASIO cables or any other kludgy solution like Voicemeeter Banana, etc. So this is why some people try to use 'virtual ASIO cables', which are a kludgy and buggy attempt to provide a way to route the ASIO OUTPUT to the Windows system routing, AND VICE VERSA. Pretty much any ASIO interface has INPUT channels that can be 'heard' from Windows system routing, but the ASIO OUTPUT cannot be 'heard' from other Windows applications like OBS, Zoom, Discord, etc. The problem is that ASIO channels on a Windows audio interface are *separate* from your Windows system sounds.
