This tutorial explains how to download songs from SoundCloud (online audio platform to record, upload, and share sounds).

SDownload is a handy software that helps to download multiple songs from SoundCloud  by in a few mouse clicks. Although there are multiple tools, like Sound Cloud Link Grabber and SoundCloud Downloader, available to grab music from SoundCloud. But this software is one of the easiest and best to use.

It also helps to automatically fill ID3 tags (like music title, author name, album name, etc.), set artwork, as well as automatically add downloaded songs to your iTunes library.

Multiple songs can be queued to download one by one using SDownload. Another interesting feature about this Soundcloud Downloader is that each song is downloaded to a particular folder that makes it easy for you to search that song.

To use this software, you have to install it on PC as well as install its extension on Chrome browser. After this, it will provide a SDownload button for each particular sound available on SoundCloud, like visible in above screenshot.

Note: SDownload sometimes hanged while I tried to download multiple songs. Apart from this bug, it worked perfectly fine during testing.
