Hi Golden Dakota
When you try to record the streaming audio, in the Soundtap window if the program is actually listening to the audio stream you should be able to see the audio level indicator moving. Like in the example below

The things to always check is that the message "Successfully connected to driver" and "Soundtap is receiving an audio stream" are showing in the logs. These messages are the ones that indicate the program is ready to record.
In the case your Soundtap does not connect to the driver you might want to try to uninstall and reinstall the program again.
Please try the following.
1. Uninstall the program Sountap
To Uninstall your program follow the steps below:
1. Open the Applications folder
2. Click on and hold on the Soundtap icon and drag it to the trash bin.
2. Reboot your computer and then reinstall the program Soundtap from the link below:

3. Reboot you computer once again.
4. Open Soundtap and click on the option record (do not check on the option to also record from the microfone)
There should be audio recognized and the bars moving. Let me know what is it that you get if different.
