About this integration

SoundCloud hosts a huge amount of independent music and podcasts. Vidownloader downloads tracks at the best available quality and re-encodes to MP3 if you choose the audio format. Public tracks work without login; private (link-only) tracks need SoundCloud cookies.

Go+ premium tracks require an authenticated subscription. Vidownloader will surface those as auth-required and prompt you to upload cookies.

What you can do

  • MP3 audio at the highest available bitrate
  • Public tracks work without login
  • Private link-only tracks via cookies
  • Sets and playlists (one track at a time for now)
  • Podcasts and DJ mixes

SoundCloud FAQ

Why does it download as MP3 and not the original format?

SoundCloud streams audio in HLS format which Vidownloader transcodes to MP3 for offline-friendly playback. The MP3 is high bitrate (up to 320 kbps where the source allows).

Can I download Go+ premium tracks?

Only with cookies from a logged-in SoundCloud Go+ account. The Cookies modal supports soundcloud.com cookies.txt.
