10.6.2, iShowU 1.75, Soundflower 1.5.1 are not compatible - no system audio

Ever since upgrading to 10.6.2, the system audio features of ishowu no longer function. soundflower works properly but it seems that 10.6.2 does not let other applications switch/utilize soundflower in their apps. I was on a troubleshooting call with ishowu personnel and the problem was narrowed down to the Snow Leopard. All worked well in Leopard and Tiger but now problems. Apple is really going downhill with the launch with many issues.

Thanks. I had tried that previously and its not a soundflower problem. It seems that the new version of Snow Leopard does not provide the switch to allow 3rd party software to communicate with the sound system preferences. This was not a problem with earlier versions of Mac OS and seems to be a bug that was introduced with Snow Leopard. Mac will only survive if it moves forward with max compatibility with 3rd party software producers.

  • Do movie recording with INTERNAL SYSTEM AUDIO [soundflower doesnt help in this case]

    Hi, I used to use a screen capturing program called Snapz Pro X. What I liked to do was record myself playing guitar / singing etc. I had my audio come from Logic during the capture so I could have effects on the mic as well as have multiple tracks. I basically opened up photobooth and screen captured the video from there, and used the audio capture to get the Logic audio. For some reason Snapzpro won't let me record internal systme audio anymore so I tried to switch to something else.
    I see on this new quicktime you can record video similar to photobooth. When I go to the settings, I only see you can choose microphone. You cant capture system audio. So I downloaded soundflower to re route it. When I do a video record and play something like iTunes it works in the render, but I cant hear the music playing as it is in the recording process. This is the main problem for me.
    I want to use soundflower to be able to record whatever audio is coming out of Logic Pro and just use Quicktimes isight for the video. If I change my Logic pro pref in audio output to soundflower and record it works BUT you cant hear audio WHILE recording doing this.
    So I basically cant hear anything while recording which defeats the purpose. Keep in mind im not recording anything in logic at all. Im just capturing the audio from the program.
    How can I record in a program like photobooth or quicktime for the video part and then be able to have the captured audio from logic pro in it?
    And by the way, I am not interested in recording separate things and then combining them in post. I want something quick and easy I can do right on the fly.
    Thanks

    I realized why Snapz Pro audio isnt working now. I just recently got an audio interface, the "Duet 2" from Apogee. I use it to plug in microphones and guitars into my computer.
    I just did a test with the in and outputs set to the mbp and the audio worked fine. When I plugged in my interface and tried to capture audio with Snapz Pro, it crashes everytime. I guess it just can't work together.
    Screen capturing the isight window is kind of a crumby process to do what I want to do.
    If anyone can figure out a way to record video directly from quicktime or photobooth and use the soundflower audio for logic please let me know...it seems like a better process
    Thanks

  • Macbook pro 13" mid 2010 power issues

    Hello
    I recently obtained a macbook pro 13" model from mid 2010. The macbook was in a poor state but I got it working again.
    Parts that have been replaced:
    -harddrive: I had to buy a new harddrive so I bought an intel SSD.
    -the mac os x was not present so I bought that one from the apple store (os x snow leopard)
    -magsafe: I bought a nearly brand new one from a store in holland who deals in second hand parts for apple devices. I also bought another one to be shure from another store in france.
    -keyboard: the keyboard was a german qwertz layout but I prefer the belgian azerty layout so I replaced the entire keyboard
    After replacing the magsafe connector inside the notebook I noticed that the macbook does not start charging immediatly, sometimes it starts after 5 minutes or after 2 hours. The led lights on the charger are not orange or green, just plain black.
    what I already did to solve the problem:
    - The charger is a brand new one from the apple store and is in good working order. I used this charger on another macbook and no problems.
    - Magsafe connector: I have 3 magsafe connectors and all are in good working order. I even tried the magsafe connectors on other macbooks and all of them are in good working order.
    - Keyboard: keyboard is ok, even the keyboard lights are working fine
    - ram memory has been replaced with new ones from an apple retail store, ram is working fine
    - SSD drive is brand new and I have made a second harddrive with the same OS and updates: same result: macbook does not charge
    - system is up to date and has all updates
    The charging problem can be solved by connecting the charger to the macbook and opening the bottom and disconnecting and reconnecting the battery. After that the led lights up and turns orange to indicate that the charger is doing his job with the battery. Doing an SMC reset does not solve the problem.
    When the battery is charging: notebook is working fine, very fast with the SSD drive. When working on battery: the notebook can be used for up 3 hours maximum. When the battery is completely out of power: charging is difficult because it will not start immediately, no orange of green led.
    What could be the cause of this problem? I've been looking around to get prices for a replacement logic board but I not shure.

    First of all, I notice two things:
    You are using Sophos, and most users do not need it. See if uninstalling it helps > http://www.sophos.com/es-es/support/knowledgebase/119182.aspx
    You are using a Soundflower version that it is not compatible with OS X Mavericks. You can install the latest version in this website > https://code.google.com/p/soundflower/downloads/detail?name=Soundflower-1.6.6b.d mg&can=2&q=
    Apart from that, open Disk Utility (in /Applications/Utilities), choose Macintosh HD in the sidebar and repair all permissions. Have a look at this user tip > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3521
    Finally, as you have a lot of third-party apps and extensions, you should consider the option of formatting the hard drive and reinstalling OS X, so everything should be back to normal:
    If you have got a backup of your files, hold Command and R keys while your computer is starting up to start up in OS X Recovery.
    In the OS X Utilities window, open Disk Utility, choose Macintosh HD, go to Erase tab and erase the drive.
    Close Disk Utility and reinstall OS X. Do not restore your backup. Then, transfer your files manually and reinstall your applications manually.

  • System Sound Output Level Reset After Reboot ?

    Whenever my iMac Core Duo is rebooted, system sound output level always get reset to value 0.56 (-24dB) as shown in utility "/Applications/Utilities/Audio Midi Setup". I have to increase the system sound output level to desired value of 0.75(-12.75dB) to match with built-in amplifier of Altec Lansing FX6021 speaker system. The desired setting lasts until next reboot. Is there any way I can fix the system sound output level at desired level between reboots ? Why I have to be involved in such constant struggle with the iMac for such simple audio configuration ?
    Audio Hijack Pro 2.6.7 wihtout Soundflower 1.1 virtual audio device has been installed. Audio hijack function of this utility has not been used at all. Thank you for any pointer.

    Thanks for the confirmation that my iMac is not an isolated case. In case you are not willing to use Audio Hijack Pro, just use Automator to create an Automator script to set system volume (In Automator's Library plane: Applications>System>Set System Volume) and save it as application. Set this application as Login Items for your account through following menu path:
    System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items. Whenever you login with this account, the script will be invoked automatically by Mac OS X and sound levels for output, input and alert will be set to user preferred levels. For older versions of Mac OS X (10.3.9 and earlier) without Automator, same effect can be achieved with Apple Script, use Apple Script Editor instead of Automator to create Apple Script and set it as Login Items. This workaround has been working consistently on my iMac Intel Core Duo.

  • Click and Pops in Audio Playback

    I am using a MOTU 824 Mk3 with L7P 7.2 and a Dual G5 tower. This system worked very well for quite awhile but recently there are click and pops in the audio on playback only, meaning the clicks are not in the actual audio files and they do not get recorded.
    The clicks were occurring randomly, maybe 1 or 2 per minute. I increased the buffer size to the max of 1024, now the clicks occur every so often, maybe I'll hear 1 while listening to 10 minutes of audio.
    I am not using L7 in demanding applications right now. Normally 1 stereo track with 2 or 3 plug-ins, though the number of plug-ins does not seem to matter. I could have no plug-ins running and still would hear the occasional click.
    I don't think it is the MOTU interface because I do not have this problems with other programs. For example, if I run Waveburner playing back identical audio, Waveburner never clicks or pops.
    Anyone have any ideas? It's starting to drive me crazy. It's possible this all started when updated from 7.1 to 7.2 but I do not know that for sure, it could have been happening before I upgraded.
    Thanks in advance!!

    I believe this problem is due to having the plug-in Soundflower from Cycling 74 active through an aggregate sound driver. When I changed the sound driver to another aggregate sound driver w/o Soundflower, thereby de-activating Soundflower, the problem seemed to go away. I need to do some more checking though to make sure it really is gone and it was Soundflower.

    You have too much junk installed…
    The 'easy' way - reinstall
    I think you will be quickest backing up the HD to an external disk (check it still boots!). Erase the internal HD, reinstall 10.9, migrate your USER DATA ONLY back to 10.9, reinstall the apps you use, then delete the old login items & user launchd jobs that migrated. You should have a stable system at the end of it.
    The hard way - 'cleaning up'
    Firstly search these forums for opinions on running Sophos's AV - it adds extra work to your system & many have had issues with it on 10.9. At the very least ensure it is the latest release & 10.9 supported. Sophos is running 7 system level background jobs and 2 kernel extensions! These all can modify how the system runs.
    At the end of cleanup you may have a stable system - it really depends on how much effort you put into clearing out all the system level jobs that are not compatible with 10.9. The developers don't make it easy to remove software too, so you may have a lot of searching to do (for instructions & uninstallers).

    Uninstall Jacksta, the 'startup items' have been deprecated since 10.4 - Apple told developers to stop using them years ago.
    Update all the other apps listed or find uninstallers/ removal instructions to correctly remove the software.
    Are all those sierrawireless and novatelwireless drivers used or needed anymore?
    Can you uninstall BlueStacks? It's failing to run jobs inside your user account, get rid of things that don't work (or update them & check they do work).
    Java's updater is failing to run - is Java up to date? Do you need Java installed? It isn't installed on Mac OS anymore because of it's lousy security record. Update or remove if you don't need it.
    You could try removing Sophos & find that the Mac runs OK - but eventually having all the old kernel extensions & background jobs around will eventually cause something else to break.

  • Adjust output level of audio files in Quicktime export??

    Hello...
    I have been using Quicktime to create little ringtones (take an audio snippet, export as .aiff then convert to MP3 for my cell phone). However, the output of these ringtones played on my phone, compared to some other ringtones I have, is VERY loud.
    I was wondering if there is a way either with Quicktime (where I export the .aiff file) or with iTunes (where I convert to MP3) that I can adjust the audio output level of the file so that it is less loud??
    Thanks!!
    Scott

    I WAS WRONG. But there is a solution... record a screen movie using Quicktime (System 10.7 and 10.8).
    Open Quicktime, in the file menu select "New Screen Recording," run your Keynote Presentation and the movie with sound will record if you use Soundflower.
    Soundflower is a free program that can record system sound with QuickTime X, download at <http://cycling74.com/products/soundflower/>
    In "Sound" system preference, set the output to "Soundflower (2ch)". (If you enable "Show volume in menu bar" you can Option-Click the volume icon in the menu bar to select audio devices.)
    In QuickTime X's screen recording window, click the triangle near the top-right to select "Soundflower (2ch)" for the audio inout, then start recording. Keep the monitor volume slider in the recording window all the way to the left or else there will be echo on the recording.
    You won't hear the sound while recording because it is going directly into QuickTime. If you beed to listen while recording, you will also need Audio Hijack Pro <http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/> Hijack the application producing the sound and use the "Auxiliary Device Output" effect to send audio to "Soundflower (2ch)", then make the recording.
    When using Soundflower to send audio to and from applications, you may find that you are not able to send audio through another device to monitor audio output. In such situations you can use Soundflowerbed, an application that resides in the Finder’s Menubar allowing you to tap into Soundflower channels and route them to an audio device. To start the Soundflowerbed menu app go to the Soundflower folder in /Applications and within it open Soundflowerbed.app.

  • Audio lost in quicktime export

    In an older thread several users mentioned a problem of loosing audio when exporting to Quicktime. I just had the same problem and found a solution.
    I placed a video that contained music audio in a master slide to run in the background. I then created animations of text boxes to put words over the video, and set timings for the words using "Record Slideshow" in the "Play" menu. Everything worked great until I exported to Quicktime. When I exported, the video continued playing but the sound stopped as soon as the first animation played.
    Here's the solution that worked for me:
    I extracted the audio from the video. This can be done in iMovie or other inexpensive video editing programs. I silenced the video's audio by selecting the video, then clicking the Quicktime tab in the Inspector, and reducing volume all the way. In Inspector I went to the Document tab, clicked on media, and dragged the extracted audio into media box. I then recorded the slideshow. Now the audio played during the entire slideshow when I exported to Quicktime.

  • Multiple Audio Streams?

    I'm wondering if there is an application that will allow the computer to route multiple audio streams out of my Mac Pro. or- if anyone knows how to create an easily switchable audio routing panel rather than going through preferences.
    Eg. I'm playing Itunes (or hulu or netflix) through my audio line out through my Samsung TV thorough a speaker system to watch online content through the TV and I want to work on files on the computer at the same time, say edit video using FCP and routing that audio through USB speakers at the desk.
    Being able to create multiple audio stream routing would be a HUGE asset for someone like me. Even if it's not possible, I would certainly love it if Apple would incorporate a quick switch selector in the pulldown menu for audio volume...
    Thoughts? Anyone?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, the "auxillary effect" totally helped me stream itunes music to my iSight with soundflower....giving webcam streaming my system audio, which I couldnt do before without hearing anything....ugh so complicated! but this works!! Sometimes apple is so rediculous and I know there are more features they could build in.
    Thanks!

  • Soundflower, Logic Pro X and Ustream

    I broadcast a show on Ustream in which I play the saxophone against trax that I have
    loaded into iTunes. I play the sax into an apogee USB mic. I also use that same mic
    to talk to the audience while trax are playing, at which time I need to adjust the level of the track
    and the mic. I’m working on a Mac Pro with Logic Pro X.
    Up until now, here’s what I’ve been doing.
    In Mac Audio Midi Setup:
    I set the output device in Audio Midi Setup to Soundflower (2ch).
    I set the input device in Audio Midi Setup to Mic.
    In Logic Pro X:
    In preferences I set the input device to Mic, and the output to
    to Soundflower (2ch)
    In Ustream:
    I set the input to Soundflower (2ch)
    For monitoring:
    I set the Soundflowerbed desktop app to route from Soundflower to Built-in Output which I then
    listen to on my headphones as I do the show.
    This works, in a fashion, but is extremely awkward, in that the only way to lower the music track levels when I want to speak on the mic is by lowering the slider on iTunes.
    Here’s what I want to do, but can’t yet figure out, despite many attempts:
    I want to route both the iTunes and the mic into Logic Pro X.
    I want to be able to mix both the mic and the trax in Logic Pro X and then
    output it into Ustream for broadcast.
    I also want to be able to monitor the mix though my headphones.
    I’ve tried creating aggregate devices and multi-output devices but can’t seem to get what i want.
    The permutations I’ve tried and the problems are too numerous and varied to list here.
    But I’d appreciate any ideas on how to accomplish running a system + mic input into logic,
    mixing in there, and then piping the combined trax out through Ustream.
    Thanks.

    serisony,
    Make sure your router allows or has multicast enabled... as this is required..
    and..
    Check if you have a firewall operating either on your Mac or in your Router... (On the Mac this also includes apps like Little Snitch... and not just the OS X firewall itself.)

  • Random clicks when routing standalone synths into Logic via Soundflower

    Anyone facing random clicks when re-routing audio from standalone music software into Logic through Cycling '74 Soundflower?
    I am testing that with the Vogue Quattro free synth, that can be downloaded here:
    http://tinyurl.com/2ucyfem
    This is not AU so it requires re-routing. Can you also please mention your processor speed, Mac model and OS version? Trying to find out if this is a performance issue or not.
    Tnx.

    Ok, from first experiments I'm basically getting the same behaviour you see - MIDI is being routed to Kontakt, and it's playing. If you set Kontakt to use the default system output, it plays fine. But when set to the Soundflower driver, it plays (looking at the meters) but that audio doesn't show up in Logic.
    I've tried using an external instrument, using an audio channel in input monitor mode, and an input object, software monitoring is on, and in no cases can I get the Kontakt audio in Logic.
    I'm going to try a few things. I've certainly used an aggregate device with Soundflower to pipe audio into Logic in the past (though not in LP8, it was LP7). At the moment I don't know whether it's a Kontakt issue, an aggregate device issue, a Soundflower issue, or a Logic issue.
    More in a bit...
    Edit: just using Soundflower as the audio device (ie on its own, not as part of an aggregate deivce) the audio does go back into Logic's mixer.
    Edit2: Ok, just got it working. AMS and Soundflower is picky about picking up the number of inputs/outputs correctly here. I futzed with it a bit (see my sig) and it's now working.
    Edit3: And now it's stopped again. Soundflower has always been a little flaky for me, so perhaps it's general Soundflower flakiness that makes this not a dependable setup. The Soundflower inputs have disappeared from my Aggregate device - seems to be crashing or something. Re-futzing it, re-creating the aggregate device with care so the correct number of inputs show up, and it works again for a while. But it's not at all reliable.
    Give Jack a try, and see whether you get more stable behaviour. I used Jack on my old PPC as well, but don't have it installed here to hand...

  • Why can't I get AU Lab and Soundflower to record anything on my Mac Pro!

    (Please be patient, I really apreciate your time and input!)
    I have been (and I am) recording for years with logic audio and a lot of other recording aplications which I own.
    I started experimenting with AU Lab. Although I am very good at figuering out, learning new applications I can't
    record a thing with AU Lab and Soundflower to record anything on my Mac Pro! I red the confusing instructions
    and followed You Tube videos on this. I get a reading of what I want to record in the AU Lab mixers only if I set
    the input and output to Soundflower, but after recording and saving the AU Lab Recording .aif files play back nothing!
    I am running system 10.9, latest AU Lab version. I do not use the Alesis iO|26 firewire interface I have connected but I
    only want to record what is playing in my computer.
    I changed input and output settings in the above to different combinations and in system audio still no sound out of
    the AU Lab Recording .aif files I get!
    Thank you for any ideas of what I do wrong or have to set up.

  • When I try to record audio with Soundflower, the recording has no audio. What am I doing wrong?

    I am an amateur DJ trying to record a mix made in Cross DJ. I followed a tutorial instructing me to use Soundflower to route my system audio to QuickTime and have had no problem routing. Yet when I record the audio with QuickTime, the recording plays no audio. What am I doing wrong? I really need this mix recorded and I have no intention of downloading extra software.

    This is because you have Punch on the fly enabled under Options (top menu)>Audio>Punch on the Fly.... signified by the letter P instead of the letter R

  • Yosemite and Soundflower

    Could anyone confirm that Soundflower seems to be broken under Yosemite? A couple of months ago I was successfully using it under Maverick with Quicktime to capture system audio when screen recording. I've now wasted too much time trying to do the same thing whilst using Yosemite.

  • Recording Skype using Soundflower and usb audio interface as aggregate

    I want to record Skype calls.
    I installed Soundflower and Audacity records Skype far side audio fine when Soundflower is selected as the input. However, I want to record far side audio PLUS my microphone that runs through my Focusrite Forte usb audio interface (Audacity records my mic just fine with Forte selected as the input).
    So I created an aggregate input device in OS 10.9 consisting of the Forte and Soundflower inputs. When I test out the aggregate audio input in the Mac audio settings, I see soundbars from both devices. However, when I choose the aggregate device as the input in Audacity, only the Forte device is recorded (not Skype).
    Any ideas as to why only one of the two devices in the aggregate input is being recorded by Audacity?
    Did I set up the aggregate incorrectly?
    Many thanks!

    The people over in the GarageBand forums are amazing at diagnosing and fixing these sorts of things. I recommend that you give it a try posting the question over there:
