Recording audio out of laptop

Im still looking for a software that can record audio out from my laptop (while reason/live./cubase are open and playing) and record it to a wav file on my system.

say if im playing around with a synth sound, and just want to record the audio right now as i play with it rahter than having to record my automation into the sequence then do a render... you know what i mean..

for windows by the way, i know theres as good one like this for mac (audio hijack i think its called?)

cheers anyone!

maybe audacity?

http://audacity.sourceforge.net

you just want to do a line out from your laptop, to another computer, as if your laptop was just another instrument?

probably lots of freeware wave editors

there's reaper too http://reaper.fm

that one has a nag screen though, but it's a multi-tracker so not a bad trade off

audio hijack pro is fucking excellent, I love it. sorry windows
