When I record my own playing I plug an inexpensive microphone into my
Mac and use Audacity to record it on the Mac. No extra hardware other
than the microphone is required (I will note that not all Macs have a
microphone input jack). Audacity replaces (for this purpose)
Garageband. I think this is the solution you are most interested in.
I carry a portable cassette recorder to my lessons and record my
instructor. When I return home I connect the headphone out of the
cassette deck to the mic-in on the Mac
