Hi group, I want to save various lesson clips – like when Brian says “use this when going forwarding in your improvising/writing”. I want to do that but a day later I can’t remember which lesson or where that piece of the lesson was. So… is it possible to save short clips so I can reference them later? I’d like to have a collection of those great pieces of advice to use when I need them. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Dave -

Yes, you can use real player or vlc to record clips of the part1 videos on youtube using a pc, as far as I know it can’t be done with part 2 or slow walk through videos.

Thanks Billy. Can Real Player be used on a Mac desktop? And… I presume you are saying it needs to be copied from Youtube, and not for the AM site itself? Hence not the Part Two or slow walk throughs?

D.I don’t know about on a mac. I link real player to my start up task bar, so when I want to save a YouTube part 1 video it is done with a single click, Vlc which I also have installed let’s me play the saved video(2nd preference) and when there are sections I want isolated it’s just a click on the red record button to record and a 2nd click on the red button to stop recording it’s one of the handsets video tools I’ve ever come across( clips can be saved to a designated folder), of course if you have a video editing suite that will do the same job as vlc.
The other videos, part 2 and slow walk through are hosted on vimeo and can’t be downloaded from vimeo’s embedded code.

Just a short advice : we all agree here to say that AM is worse the price.
if ever someone know a way to download easyly (i do not talk about quicktime or similar solution) part 2 lessons, (and in computer science, almost all can be done), i do not think it should be a good stuff to share this in a forum.
malevolant people, and there should be, could take only one month inscription, download hundred lessons during this month, than leave. this should do damage to Brian and we all agree for the big service he offers.Where does the white go when snow melts?

You can just do it with Quicktime, which is on every Mac. Pause the video where you want to start recording, then open Quicktime. Go to File > New Screen Recording and a small window will open. Click the Record button, then start playing your video. To stop the recording, click on the little square which has magically appeared in the very top menu bar of your screen. Mess around with it a bit, and you’ll figure it out. Of course you have to save the .mov file. You can, if you like, trim off the rubbish at the beginning and end of the clip. Before you save it, hit Cmd-T and the trim window will open. Just drag the ends to where you want them to be, then click Done and save it.
Using this simple method, you can also record literally any video that you have running on your Mac…..Vevo, Youtube, Facebook, whatever. I’m boggled that more people don’t know to do this.

Steve, thats a great tip – to use Quicktime! It works just as you describe, only problem – I get no sound when I re-play – any ideas?

Oh, right – I forgot about that issue. Here’s how I deal with it: Quicktime only wants to record audio from the mic built into your computer (or an external mic, if you have one). I have some pretty high quality computer speakers, so I just turn them up pretty loud while the video is recording, and the sound quality is not too bad.
If you are recording a music video and want the best quality audio, you have to spend a bit more time setting up the audio interface. This guy explains it very well. It’s not as difficult as it looks:
Feedback can be an issue, if your speakers are turned up too loud.
And here’s another trick. If I want to record only some high quality audio from a Youtube music video (but not the video itself), I play the video on my iPad plugged into my studio monitors or a guitar amp, then I mic the speakers and feed them into my laptop (using Scarlett 2i2) and go to Quicktime > File > New Audio Recording. It has to be done this way to avoid major feedback. If I end up with some rubbish at the beginning and end of the audio recording, I use Audacity to trim it off. This is a really useful way – maybe the only way – to add some recordings from the old blues masters to your collection.

Appears to be an update to that video
However was thinking instead of mikeing your speakers just run a cable from your headphone socket with a splitter with two jacks then into your interface Scarlet then into the DAW once recorded drag into audacity and convert to MP3

I suggest using YouTube2Video downloader. A free & fast YouTube video downloader through which users can download YouTube videos to MP4, MP3, WAV, AVI, etc online for free directly to your PC or mobile.
