Found a SoundCloud playlist you love? Instead of saving each track one by one, paste the whole playlist into VidLoader and it queues every track as an MP3. Here's how to grab an entire set in one go.

Why grab a whole set at once

SoundCloud playlists — or "sets" — are how artists and curators group tracks that belong together: a mixtape, an album, a mood. Saving them one track at a time is slow and easy to lose track of. Pasting the set link once lets VidLoader queue everything in order and work through it while you do something else. You end up with the whole collection as MP3s in your library, ready for a road trip, a workout, or anywhere a connection is unreliable. It's the difference between a chore and a single click.

Step 1 — Paste the playlist link and choose Audio

Open Add, paste the SoundCloud playlist (set) URL, and tap Audio (MP3) under Format. VidLoader recognises it as a set and lines up every track.

Keeping the format on Audio saves each track as a clean MP3 rather than a video wrapper.

Step 2 — Watch the tracks fill the Queue

Press Download and open the Queue. Each track becomes its own row; VidLoader downloads a few at a time and works through the rest automatically.

Step 3 — Listen from your library

As tracks finish they collect in your library as MP3 cards. Press Play all for the whole set, or open the files to add them to your music folder.

Handling large sets smoothly

Bigger SoundCloud sets are no problem, but a couple of pointers help. Choosing the Audio format up front means each track saves as a tidy MP3 rather than a video wrapper, which is almost always what you want from music. VidLoader downloads several tracks at once and queues the remainder, so a large playlist clears itself while you get on with something else, and pausing keeps your place if you need to stop. Once the set is in your library, grouping keeps the collection together so it doesn't scatter among your other downloads. Do keep the free plan's daily allowance in mind for very large sets — Plus lifts that cap if you regularly download whole playlists in one sitting. If you download sets often, it's worth naming or grouping each collection as it arrives so your library doesn't turn into one long undifferentiated list. That small habit makes it easy to queue up exactly the mixtape or album you're in the mood for, even months later.

Tips for better downloads

Frequently asked questions

Does it download every track in the playlist? Yes — VidLoader queues each public track in the set and downloads them one after another.

Are they saved as MP3? When you choose Audio, each track is saved as an MP3 that plays anywhere.

How many downloads does the free plan allow? The free plan includes 10 downloads a day. For large playlists, VidLoader Plus removes the daily cap for unlimited downloads — $9.99/month or $79.99/year, with a 3-day free trial.
