LOOPBACK APP PATCH
Problem solved on routing any signal - where I need it to go - and virtually this ‘digital patch bay’ is easy to work, see and understand. I also have that digital signal now present to convert to SDIF, AES, TDIF and send it to any other digital device to record. No plugins it’s a direct representation of the sound of my mix. Next I routed the 8 channels of surround to the first 8 ADAT out channels on Quantum #1 - then took a ADAT light pipe and sent that signal to my Digital Convertor for Monitoring with the Clarion.

Then for the Mac Audio in System Prefs I choose Loopback and we are good to go.ĭAWs also choose the LoopBack output device… and choose your outputs to match. Then set my 7.1 Rear Surround setup to Channels 1-8.Įach speaker is hooked up to the appropriate speaker outs on the back of my Quantums. Then back in Audio MIDI setup I chose LoopBack and set my Stereo Speaker outs to 1 & 2 So I routed all the channels to the outputs that I wanted to have a signal at on the Quantums.

Pass Thru shows the audio sources - Output Channels are connected to those sources and MONITORS are your physical audio outs available from AudioMidi that you have set up - it even sees when you’ve created an aggregate Multi-Out device like I did when I tied the two Quantums together. You will get a session of 20 minutes of real Audio and then FUZZ after that.Īdd as many channels in Loopback as you want to route - My scenario is 8 but I’ll expand that later to work in Atmos 7.1.4.

So how can I route that signal easier, with or without a DAW?ĭownload Trial is free. The input is digital, so no prob there but wait there is no signal from the Quantums(s) at ADAT or any other OUT. I want to monitor the direct digital outs without a plugin in a monitoring device - like TC Electronic Clarion 5.1 I also don’t want to open a DAW and set that up to monitor something I want to hear - stereo up to 7.1.4 in my case. There is no way to do that in Universal Control - it does no mixing/routing - you need a DAW to do that and Logic is not elegant even tho others are like Studio One - which I don’t use but am willing to learn. See, I want to be able to have the QUANTUM(s) use all outputs and satisfy routing audio to those outputs. Well, in Surround I won’t hear the FINDER audio that plays thru Mains L & R - like I could not hear Channels 1 & 2 in Stereo. Switching requires a hardware solution, if you want to switch between any speaker - so let’s just hard wire Stereo and Surround for now. My outs 1-8 I want to send to a surround sound set of speakers. My Mains L & R out of Quantums I want feeding my main speakers.

Done.īUT (and everyone has a big but) Is that enough? No. I want to be able to have all audio sources output to my main speakers.Īudio MIDI will set the signal to 1 & 2 and it seems like it’s fixed. LOOPBACK audio app (Mac) Routes audio in QUANTUMSĮver want to take a signal from iTunes or YouTube or your DAW and play it on a specific channel or send it to a different source or Output on your nice new Quantum? Or mirror outputs on the Quantum so ADAT sees the signals? Without your DAW?įor example I wanted to take ANY Finder audio (MacOs) and route it to my main two monitor speakers.įirst off Apples Music App sends it out Mains L & R but YouTube sends it out Channels 1 & 2.
