![]() ![]() Up top you set your Sample Rate and the Clock Source. Once installed, it will be available to be wrapped into an Aggregate Device along with pre-existing devices.įor my implementation I created “Skype Tracker” as a new Aggregate and selected my mixer (Onyx-(2528)) and Sound Siphon as Subdevices. This is created when you install the application. Notice that Sound Siphon is listed as a 2 in/2 out device in the left source view. When creating a new Aggregate, supported Subdevices appear in the right side setup table. To create an Aggregate Device, open Audio MIDI Setup, located in ~/Applications/Utilities. I needed to wrap the Mic signal along with the Skype audio into a single Input Device and designate it in Logic’s Preferences for proper routing. The studio Mic is connected to the processor for proper gain staging. Input 1 on my Mackie Onyx 1220i Mixer receives the output from a dbx 286A Voice Processor. My goal here is to disclose the flexibility of the application. In other words – it’s an entrley different use case scenario. ![]() It’s important to note that this particular Sound Siphon feature is supplemental to the Skype recording implementation. For example QuickTime X will now display “Capture Safari” as an Input option for audio recording. This becomes a system wide option to capture Safari audio. I then associated the Safari Application with this device. In the example above I display a user defined Device (“Capture Safari”) that is essentially a Custom Audio Input. Note that I have no affilation and I gladly purchased a license. ![]() This will ensure the longevity of the application and continued development. My hope is that you consider purchasing a $29.99 license. And the developer states that many useful enhancements are in the works. Note that Sound Siphon is very diverse in terms of features. It enables you to send audio from one application to another where it can be processed, streamed, or recorded.” Sound Siphon by Static Z Software “… makes your Mac’s Audio Output available as an Audio Input Device. And so I looked around for a suitable up to date (and actively developed) replacement for SoundFlower. However, I had no plans to install the now unsupported SoundFlower on my production MacPro for further testing. SoundFlower, along with the iMac’s Line Input were wrapped into a single Aggregate Device, and then designated in Logic as the default Input. I originally created this workflow using SoundFlower that was installed on my secondary iMac and carried over form previous versions of OSX. We also need a software utility that supports routing of the Skype Output to an Input in Logic. By wrapping supported “Subdevices” into a single Aggregate, you effectivly create a sort of cumulative Input Device that can be designated in Logic as the default. Aggregate devices appear in the OSX System Preferences/Sound I/O options for system wide use. The foundation of this setup is based on a user created Aggregate Audio Device. You can also implement similar workflows by using two inexpensive USB audio interfaces connected to a single machine.Ĭonsidering the resourcefulness of today’s modern day Macs, I’m confident the following workflow will be successful freeing the user from complexities and added costs. In this case you would also need to use a mixer to set up a proper mix-minus. Of course the objectives noted above are easily attainable using two independent machines, with the recording box running Logic Pro X and the Skype machine handling the connection. [– Real time Processing and Recording of all instances. [– One processed split-stereo mixdown of the session with the Host and Guest residing on discrete (L+R) channels. [– Two independent mono Host/Participant stems with no processing. I believe this would reduce the latency from your keyboard to your monitors while any lag Zoom has processing the audio (and probably) video would be slightly increased.Studio Host and Skype participant to be recorded inside Logic Pro X on a single machine (single pass) with no additional hardware other than a Mic Input Device. | |MIDI / Logic piano | |output channels: L & R | | monitors: headphones | | Here's a crude diagram that shows how this might work: If you use Loopback (and you may also use Audio Hijack for finer-grained control) you can create virtual devices that can be selected from within Zoom (for example) while being monitored through, say, a pair of headphones. ![]()
