Dual audio output

Many people are obviously considering using a Mini as a media server, but there is one big problem with that which I'd love to be able to solve.
How can you send quality application audio to the AV amp (via TOSlink probably) BUT, keep system sounds on the Mac itself, or better to a small local pair of PC speakers (contained in the monitor perhaps)?
There's nothing worse than some good quality high volume audio being interrupted by deafening beeps and other system alerts. So how best to arrange 2 audio outputs that can be differentiated in the System Prefs so System sounds go out one port and other sounds (e.g. iTunes etc) out the other? Are USB and/or Firewire adapters the only solution?

Soundflower looks interesting, but I don't think it'll do what I want.
The only way seems to me to be adding a USB audio device. The Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro Sound Card provides basic functionality on a Mac (which is all I need) and uses the same combined analog/optical connector as the Mini itself. So that looks like a good solution.
I still wish the Mini provided separate control of the analog and digital/optical outputs. No reason why it couldn't list them as separate output devices in OSX. Then make a plug that separated the 2 signals. I think that would be very useful. In fact, why doesn't it list the external output separately from the internal speakers in any case? It's a shame they cripple its potential.

Nano lacks dual audio output?

When I plug in my Nano into the Alpine iPod adapter of my car audio deck unit, I have to unplug the headphones to get the Alpine to receive an audio signal.
I'm pretty sure that the regular iPods were able to receive an audio signal through the dock connector with the headphones plugged in.
Is this the way the Nano is supposed to work?
This is annoying because I've found that the easiest way to wear out the connectors of the headphones and the connectors of the iPod is to plug in then and unplug the headphones on a regular basis.
Can this be corrected in software? Perhaps a dual audio output can be activated with the next firmware release? If not, it should be possible to direct the audio output to the dock connector instead of the headphone output when the dock connector is active. This can be done as an optional setting in the menu since I would assume that not everyone would prefer this setting all of the time.

Did you get your Nano to play? I have a 420i adapter for my Alpine HU. Plugged in the Nano, the unit recognized it. The Alpine splash displayed on the Nano but, no sound.... Had a mini before and everything worked fine.

Dual audio output, Headset + PC

Not sure if this has been asked.
At work, we recently started using Lync for our conference call, my question is can Lync be set to instead of using A or B audio device to use A and B?

Hey Chris, the only way I could see this working is if the built in audio device supported dual input/output (the one on my laptop does), however would require an analogue headset rather than usb.
What are you trying to acheive? Maybe there is another way to achieve a similar outcome.

Optical/Analog Splitter for Dual Audio Output

Does anyone know if the mini-TOSlink combo jack can simultaneously output both digital and analog signals? If so, has anyone seen a splitter that would let you take advantage of this? I need both output formats to feed into my multi-zone stereo receiver.

I am currently trying to find a solution to what is I think the same problem (receiver only routes analog signals to the additional zones). I haven't been able to find such a cable and have considered these to connect to my multi-zone receiver:
1) I have an old sound usb soundblaster extigy. I have used it in the past as a cheap d/a convertor of sorts as it has both digital input and outputs and works without being hooked up to a computer. If I feed it the airtunes digital signal it outputs simultaneously optical and analog to the receiver. The problem is that the soundblaster does add processing to the signal (volume control and mixing of its other inputs) so although it does sound clean, it almost defeats the purpose of the digital connection. This adds another unit and may not be ideal for you as you would have to buy such a card. Separate D/A convertors would also work but would add even more cost
2) I have considered taking my airtunes apart and tapping into the audio output and adding a second analog output. My warranty is already up but I am afraid the case of the airtunes cannot be opened without it breaking. This option does not fix the same audio distribution problem when I hook up my laptop.
I thought the integrated digital outputs on my macs and airtunes were ingenious till I ran into this problem with my new receiver. Too bad the receiver doesn't have a couple more D/As to route digital signals. With the number in there already for 7.1 channel audio I feel this shouldn't be a problem at least when listening to stereo digital signals.
Sorry for the long post, I will keep looking for a better solution, please post if you do as well!

Dual Audio Outputs (HDMI + Headphone)

Hi people,
Just wondering if it's possible to have the audio outputting to both the HDMI and the headphone jack???
I'd like sound from both the TV and my speak at home...
Thanks,

Dual Audio Outs? / HDMI and RCA Analog at the same time?

I am trying to figure out if the Apple TV supports dual audio output. My Onkyo receiver supports dual-room/dual-source audio (powered and line-level stereo audio output for 2nd room). The problem is it can only accept an analog source for the second room.
I know that HDMI takes precedence over component video connections if both are connected.
Will the ATV send audio signal out of the HDMI and RCA Analog jacks at the same time so I can enjoy streaming music is two rooms simultaneously?

I like to be a helpful soul, so I decided to pull the owner's manual from Onkyo and take a look at the receiver, without ever thinking about the model number, and come to find out, I have my Apple TV hooked into an Onkyo TX-SR606.
I appreciate that!
Iowabeerguy wrote:
Problem is, I have the HDMI into the Onkyo and the analog outs going to to another stereo receiver for the outdoor speakers. Both work at the same time, which means that the Apple TV will output both digital and analog at the same time.
Good to know.
Iowabeerguy wrote:
Now, let's look at the receiver - if you have the HDMI plugged into the - say DVD input, and it's playing through the main system, and you plug the analog outputs into the DVD analog in on the receiver, the Zone 2 out will automatically look at the HDMI input, and not put out anything to the Zone 2 outs, because it won't pass digital to the Zone 2 outs.
Oh yeah, that makes sense!
Iowabeerguy wrote:
I can't try it tonight, but I think if you plug the analog outputs from the Apple TV to an input that isn't assigned to an HDMI in, (like CD) and then set the Zone 2 amp to play that source, it should work.
I've set aside some "tinkering" time this weekend to try that. I'll let you know if it works; I think it will. Thanks again!

Mac mini audio output

Hi, i've seen this interesting program http://www.algoriddim.net/index.html
for djs.
These djs program usually use to way to work:
- dual sound card
- mutiple output on a single sound card
This program use the second approach.... but mac mini has only an output.
I remember that my last pc was able, using a tune program, to convert an audio input to an audio output to get 5.1 system.
I wonder to know if it is possible to convert the input to output with some kinda program, or is there any way to get working the pre-cue with a mini.

hello mini users with the "no audio output" problem
it seems that there are faulty output jacks in the macbook and the mac mini
there are two things you can try:
i tried everything and began thinking about what new software i had installed. it was "macam" which enables you to use older webcams on OSX. i needed that to use my webcam on skype.
macam installs a file called "macam.component"
if you have the same, do this - take that file out of:
(your hard drive)/library/quicktime - macam.component
and just put it on your desktop
restart, then in your sound pref's choose your audio output (if doesn't work restart again)
the first time i took it out, i had my sound back instantly, another time i had to choose audio output in sound prefs. you kind of have to try different things. after you get your sound back, you can put back "macam.component" to use your webcam.
it seems macam causes the problem, the two can not work at the same time.
the second thing: if you dont have "maccam" try plugging and unplugging output jack a few times and restarting until you have sound.
the problem still could be with the OSX 10.4.10 update / quicktime...or maybe even a hardware problem like others with macbooks were saying (with the red light), not sure.
people with macbooks and who have the red light on, say to use a paperclip to turn off the switch inside.
my mini does not have a red light on. i tried using a paperclip but it doesnt work.
hope this helps, beleive me i feel your pain!!!!
what good is a computer without sound?
extremely annoying problem that i hope apple looks into and fixes

Upgraded to 7.2 and totally lost audio output

I wonder if anyone can help.
I have upgraded from 7.1 to 7.2 logic pro. now when i try to open songs i've been working on, i get no audio output at alll, just some nasty clicks and pops.
all tracks look like they're playing and show bouncing meters, but the master output is showing no audio output at all.
this only seems to happen on songs i had started in 7.1 because if i just load up logic and start a new song there's no problem.
i thought an upgrade was supposed to iron out problems not create them!
anyone had the same problem or got any ideas i would appreciate hearing from you.
my system:
G5 dual 1.8 Gig
mac OS 10.4.6
logic pro 7.2
audio interface - Novation X-station

i've tried disconnecting the X-station and running logic on built in audio but exactly the same happens.
after more messing, i've found that there are a whole load of songs which won't play audio, these are all in one folder and are an album project.
other songs in other foldres seem to play OK.
i haven't made any changes to the folder and am totally confused as to what is happening.
when i open these songs and press play, i get a horrible click or pop but then no audio. however when i press stop i get the reverb tail of an audio track.
i thought i'd finished the album which is why i thought it was safe to install the 7.2 upgrade, however now the artist wants a few changes and i can't do anything at the moment.

Do you get any sound from any sessions other than
what you've described?
Does this also happen with internal/BuiltIn Audio?

Can we change the quality of the output for Blu-Ray? & 6 Channels Audio output?

I'd like to know how to change the quality of the output of a BD. 'cause i am using an untouched m2ts from a BD which has two audio tracks(encore recognise only one). The bitrate is 30Mbit + but the output is like 3 Mbit. What am i doing wrong?
And how to output a 6channels audio?
Thanks for any help!

I am confused on your workflow here. It seems that you are Importing material that is already in fully BD-compliant form, but then are Transcoding again?
Can you step us through the exact Assets that you are working with, and the steps that you are taking with those Assets?
Also, if you have a muxed MPEG source file, I would rip it to the elemental/elementary streams, as Encore has some issues with muxed MPEG source files. Also, you will want to rip the two Audio streams, and Import those separately. These Assets should show Do Not Transcode, if they are 100% BD-compliant. If they do not, you should be able to force Encore to NOT Transcode them, so the quality should match that of the Imported files exactly, and no more work should need to be done. Remember, that is if they ARE 100% BD-compliant - very important.
If you already have your dual-Audio streams, you will not need the SurCode DD 5.1 SS encoder plug-in, in this case, as that encoding has already been done, or at least I think that it has been done.
Good luck, and we'll be looking for details on your workflow,
Hunt

Help! Something freakish has happened to my audio output

I have no clue what I've done, but suddenly I am only getting audio output from odd numbered tracks on my timeline.
There is no problem with the source audio, it's fine, I checked it.
What should be happening is that Track 1 (and all subsequent odd numbered tracks) come out of my left speaker, and Track 2 (and all even tracks) out of my right speaker. ie dual mono.
Suddenly I'm getting Track 1/odd tracks out of both speakers, and Track 2/even tracks out of none.
This is probably something hyper simple and obvious but I have no clue what it is. I even tried trashing the Prefs and fiddling with user settings. Changing User Prefs: Audio Output: Default Stereo Prefs (it's normally on a custom dal mono setting) makes no difference at all.
Please please someone help because it is going to be an absolute nightmare only working from alternate tracks.
Dual 2.5ghz G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8) 4gb RAM, 250gb HD

Thank you - I did check that - but it wasn't that. After rebooting and preferences trashing multiple times and even buying new speakers, I finally found out what it was.
In the Apple System Preferences: Hardware: Sound: Output the Balance was set to left. I have absolutely no idea how this occurred, I didn't even know this setting existed and I hadn't accessed any system preferences for days. The sound "vanishing" happened mid-edit - one moment I was working on the timeline, the next half the sound had gone. I do have some memories of the speakers crackling, but I don't know if it was around the same time or not. The (old) speakers are working absolutely fine now the Balance is set back to the middle.
So I can only assume there is some very very obscure key combination that I inadvertently pressed that changes the system audio output balance. Or another application such as iTunes messed with it. It remains a mystery, but thankfully things are back to normal!

Asrock ION330/Nvidia HDMI - No audio output

Machine was running archlinux and not been upgraded in over 6mths but HDMI audio worked fine. Decided to do a scratch build since all the changes in that time and have a nice clean system.
If it helps, this is what I install. Ssed this exact same install process for another Asrock ION330 and Acer Revo3610 (both same hardware) but neither use HDMI at all. Both VGA with either optical or analog audio. Both work with no additional config.

Get no sound output but also zero errors on any of the following commands. I should add that the receiver does not detect any audio coming in, ie it usually identifies how many channels of audio and type it is receiving.

FWIW, I even tried changing the HDMI cable, turning the amp on before or after the PC etc. No change.

Default install, clean boot and I get this error but the info above indicates there is a sound device. Confused!

Audio output will not work on external speakers. Internal speakers will work. What do i do to replace audio output slot

Right click your volume icon in the notification area and select "volume control options". From there, you should be able to select the external speakers.
I hope that helps!

Is there a fix for Mountain Lion audio output settings after the laptop goes to sleep and wakes back up?

Mac Book Pro running Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.5 after the notebook sleeps audio and video does work (for example on YouTube). I have been able to temporarily work around this by toggling the settings on Built-in Output in Audio Midi Setup, Audio window between 2ch-20bit Integer and 2ch-24bit Integer. But this is a temporary fix until the laptop sleeps again.
When it's not working, all system sounds (emails "dings", delete file "swish", etc.) are silenced, and video playbacks on YouTube and elsewhere freeze and have no audio until the Audio Output settings are toggled then they all immediately start working.
Has anyone encountered the same? Have a long term fix for this annoyance?
I cannot upgrade the OS to 10.9 Mavericks yet because of a corporate policy - there is some conflict with 10.9 and our corporate VPN connection.

Help!! No AUDIO output from iMac through FW to mixing board (zed r16)

With my system stated below, I run an Allen-Heath ZED R16 board via FW. PROBLEM: I get NO Audio output to the R16 when I play iTunes or DVD/CDs in the iMac.
I DO get audio feed when I playback projects from Logic.
I have checked all System Prefs on the iMac (cahnged to the ZED); on Logic (changed to the ZED). I tried all different channels, routing, etc. NOTHING.
Can someone help?

Well, the Allen-Heath support site had the answer... quite surprised and pleased!!
Have to reconfigure the iMac speakers in the Audio/Midi preferences. The details are found in this URL:
http://allen-heath.helpserve.com/index.php?m=knowledgebase&a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=238
The ZED R16 is a great board but certainly not Plug' n Play.

Help! No Audio output In Logic Express 7

I have been running logic 7 Express with a MOTU Traveler for over a year now (with very few problems), and just this morning i have encountered a very puzzling problem. When i opened the song i was working on last night, i found that there was no audio output--just intermitant digital beeps at very high pitches (10-15k). i tried opening other songs; same problem. this problem does not occur when using the built in audio driver, so i was thinking it must be a hardware issue, but iTunes seems to output as per usual THROUGH THE MOTU so i'm really scratching my head here. hard drives etc seem to mount so the firewire port seems to be ok. i'm getting the same results (no audio playback and high digital pitches in Quicktime and Live as well...
has anyone with this setup ever experienced anything like this???!!!
thanks for reading,

Check you preferences in LE for what you have selected for output. Also, and I am not 100% sure, because for me this is always already set, make sure each track has Output 1-2 on the channel strip. On my setup, I have my Tascam US-122 set for both input and output, then my monitor system is connected to the US-122. Now I don't recall which, but I think it was Logic that wants both input and output to be the same device. I am pretty sure, because I know I have used both in GB. Also, on my US-122, there's a switch for mono, so my recording comes in both speakers, as well as a direct monitoring switch, with a separate volume control, so I can balance my recording with the tracks I am playing to, to my liking. I am not familiar with your unit, but I'd think it'd have some similar features. Hope this helps some, anyway.
