Soundflower - Mountain Lion - SOLVED! #172

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
In order for Soundflower to work on Mountain Lion 10.8.2 you need to CREATE A 
NEW MIDI DEVICE

You can do this via Finder>Applications>Utilities>Audio Midi Setup

Hit the + at the bottom and select CREATE MULTI OUTPUT DEVICE.

Then configure via this weblink picture (section 2 screen shot)

http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/50904/if-we-use-soundflower-to-record-t
he-systems-audio-output-then-we-cant-hear-it

Then highlight the new multi device so it has a blue border around it and click 
on the cog at the bottom and select USE THIS DEVICE FOR SOUND OUTPUT.

Then go to the Apple (top right of your screen)>Preferences>Sounds. 

Select Soundflower 2ch for INPUT and MULTI-OUTPUT DEVICE for your output.

The soundflower black petals icon will not appear in your quick menu, top 
right, but it will work. You should now be able to RECORD and LISTEN to the 
audio you're playing (I've been recording through Adobe C5.5).

Hope this works for you.

I'm using Soundflower 1.6.5

Rorymcal is a GENIUS!

ME - OS 10.8.2
Quicktime 10.2 to capture video with audio  - make sure you select 'new screen 
recording' and click the upper right arrow in the screen recording box and 
select 'soundflower 2-ch'

reporting to all here that this works great.  i'm back up and running thanks to 
this great workaround.  and better yet, now i can hear/record audio on my 
videos at the same time.  

Thanks again.

I agree with EnergyHo, Rorymcal is a genius for figuring this out. Though, I am 
having a problem. I believe I have set everything up the I am supposed to, but 
I cannot hear anything; my sound options are completely locked out when I 
change output device to multi-output device. What am I doing wrong? Please help!

Setup OSX 10.8.3, macbook pro 13" 2.9G
Latest Soundflower installed.
Been to the preferences, been to the AudioMidi setup. Everything IS checked the 
way it is supposed to be.
Using non-Apple apps such as audiomulch I'm setting the app's output to 
Soundflower 2 and select the same in whatever app I'm trying to record on 
(Garageband, Audacity, Reaper). No signal appears in the DAW's inputs, none 
whatsoever.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled Soundflower (plus reboot, yes) but so far 
nothing at all.
Appreciate your kind thoughts

@paul63 Hi, I don't why this not working correctly as the author said it would. 
I found a workaround by creating an aggregated device in AudioMidi setup and 
adding my mic and soundflower(2ch) (I don't think you have to add the mic if 
you don't want to) to that. After that was setup, I just changed my programs 
input to the aggregated device and set my computers sound output to 
soundflower(2ch) and opened up soundflowerbed and left that on built-in output.

Hope this helps!

@techergy: I'm stumped. i've done the multi-output setup, I've tried the 
Aggregate device too FWIW. All applications see Soundflower2 as an input or 
output, depending on the case. The sound-creation apps correctly output the 
sound to the laptop's speakers so we do know that audio is indeed present 
within the chain.
The only thing I can think of is some kind of HW-SW combination on Apple's side 
purposedly designed to prevent third party audio routing? (the machine is 
literally 1 week old, could be some new issue...)
Thx

Paul

Damn it is not solved, please do not specify solved if it is not. I have the 
same problem and cannot figure out why.

@gaspar I am not sure why it was marked as solved by someone when so many of us 
cannot seem to get it working like the op said it would.

Hello no - *not* solved!!
Luckily I was able to patch my way out of the mess with JACK OSX, but my issues 
are exactly the same as before

Please "unsolved"

Thx

Make sure you restart your computer after you set this up. Before I restarted 
my computer it was just a horrible buzzing sound. I am on a Macbook 5,1 10.8.4 
Mountain Lion. If you are working through Flash to broadcast please check the 
Flash settings and make sure 2ch is selected. I've gotten this to work for 
broadcasting purposes with the Multi-output-device solution. However I would be 
happy to know if I could possibly implement a working microphone with this 
setup as well.

It works great for me on OSX 10.8.4 on a Macbook 8,2 with soundflower 1.6.5.

Glad some of you have found a solution with this - for the other who haven't, 
hope you're able to sort it soon! My set up is still working...so far!

This does not work for me after following all suggestions given here in 
OS10.8.5 with SF1.6.6.

I tried to install, I am using osX10.9.4, but I couldn't due to 
"Soundflower.pkg could not be opened because it comes from a non-verificated 
developer".
What can I do?

This is really bad technology, bad solution from both Apple and this app. 
There should be NO NEED to create virtual devices for sound to work on my mac, 
and record internally. It did once upon a time!
There are too many devices in my sound input/output lists as it is.
this is almost windoz'esque on how bad and complicated it is.
thumbs down.
