hopefully i'm in the right spot here, if not i'll be in and out fast! anyway, i'm trying to record audio from a concert that was livestreamed a couple nights ago. i am using sonar platinum/ a focusrite saffire pro. i'm not getting the input/ output settings right or something. any help appreciated

It might help to have a little more info.  Livestreamed recorded.  Where is it recorded and onto what?  Have you gotten sound out of your saffire pro before?  What do you want to do w/ this livestreamed audio?
 
 

I'm not in front of my DAW but Saffire has a loopback option to allow you to record from the app where you recorded right into Sonar.

mrgreen: i see loop 1 (left/ right or stereo) as an imput option. tryed that still no signal direct into sonar. how should i be routing my line outputs? right now have 1 & 2 set as daw1 and daw2

Check the Saffire manual for loopback settings/procedure. If that is a YouTube video, there are sites that let you download the audio and/or video file directly, which would save a lot of time for you. You haven't mentioned the source yet though.

What the ??
