![]() ![]() My initial assumption was that Soundflower 2ch was just the lowest 2 channels of the same bus that Soundflower 16 ch routes on. One other thing before we look at the routing setup: at some point I had noticed that Soundflower 2ch and Soundflower 16ch are completely separate buses. The reason aggregate devices is key to achieving the routing I wanted is that it enables an application to select one CoreAudio device, but send or receive audio to multiple interfaces. The resultant logical device would have 8 inputs: inputs 1 and 2 being the built-in input, and inputs 3 to 8 being inputs 1 to 6 on the ProFire. Let’s say I create a new device consisting of my built-in input and my ProFire 610 (which has 6 inputs). In the end, it was a throw-away reference on some forum to an OSX feature called aggregate devices that gave me the key that I needed to get the whole rig working.Īn aggregate device lets you bind two or more physical devices together into a single logical device. I went through at least four major configurations trying to satisfy the goals above using many pieces of software including JACKOSX, Audio Hijack Pro, Soundflower and LineIn. To be able to trigger audio clips from Ableton Live and have them audible to both me through my headphones, and to the Skype caller, and to have those clips recorded into their own track.To also route my microphone to my Skype caller so they can hear me!.In other words each side of the conversation is on a separate track. ![]() To route my microphone into a dedicated track in Ableton Live.To also route my Skype caller’s audio to my headphones.I wanted a dedicated track so that if I needed to do any post-processing, I would have that signal on it’s own. To route my Skype caller’s audio into a dedicated track in Ableton Live.My goals for my audio routing lash up were: This post explains my basic setup and in the next week I’ll post on some variations and extensions including using an external firewire interface, and using Garage Band instead of Ableton Live. To conduct interviews or podcasts via Skype, you ideally need a way to route audio in and out of Skype and through some digital audio workstation software without going to the analogue domain. ![]()
