Discover the easiest way to record Soundcloud and save rare, unreleased tracks and exclusive DJ mixes before they disappear. Build your ultimate music library today that you can listen to offline.
SoundCloud is a treasure trove for true music lovers. It is the ultimate platform for discovering unreleased gems, early experimental drafts, and alternative versions of the tracks you love. So SoundCloud is different than Spotify and Amazon Music. From rare demos and bootlegs to creative edits, remixes, extended DJ-mixes, and mashups by independent artists—SoundCloud has it all.
But there is a catch: artists can remove their tracks at any moment. Once a rare mix or a small artist’s debut track is deleted, you might never hear it again. Capturing these fleeting musical moments for your private collection ensures your favorite underground finds stay with you forever.
Good to know: No copyright protection is circumvented
Music Streaming Services that can be recorded with Audials do not use any effective protection against recording and output unencrypted audio e.g. on the PC’s sound card. Audials always only records such unencrypted audio data. According to US Copyright Law “No action may be brought … alleging infringement of copyright based on … distribution … or based on the noncommercial use by a consumer of such a … digital audio recording device”.

Why is Audials One the Best SoundCloud Recorder?
No Editing Hassle
While other free or paid audio recorders require you to sit by your computer and manually stop the recording after every single song, Audials does the heavy lifting for you. It automatically recognizes the end of a track and cuts it perfectly, making the process to record Soundcloud completely effortless. There is also no tedious manual exporting required, eliminating unnecessary extra steps.
Supports Many Audio Formats
Furthermore, Audials provides ultimate flexibility by supporting a wide variety of popular audio formats. Whether you prefer MP3, AAC, M4A, OGG, Opus, WMA, or FLAC, you can tailor your music collection to your exact audio preferences.
No Ads
Audials One cuts out ads so that you can listen to your music offline without interruptions.
Why Should You Avoid Soundcloud Downloaders?
You might be tempted to use free online SoundCloud downloaders, but we strongly advise against it. These tools often operate in a legal gray area and are frequently illegal. They usually lack a proper company imprint, and it is completely unclear how they extract the audio file if you do not even need to play the music to get the audio file.
Why is Audials Better than SoundCloud Downloaders?
Audials, on the other hand, acts like a smart digital tape recorder. It strictly records the audio stream that you are actively playing on your PC. By capturing the exact audio signal output to your PC’s sound card, you obtain an audio file for private and personal use that you can listen to offline at any time.
