Soundflower ableton drivers#

So even if I was using maschine as a plug-in, I would still need to use soundflower/jackosx for that as well. And also, I got used to sample directly from iTunes or even youtube to get micro-samples, through soundflower/jackosx. Jacks osx can do it though.Īlso, maschine as a plug-in is great, but lack of some features that standalone offers, such as the autonomy of play/stop/rec (which in my opinion and lots of people using it and complaining on NI forum, is quite important for the workflow, to get this hands on hardware feeling), also in plug-in you cannot fullscreen the maschine software. and the UFX is much more expensive, the 800 is already 300 or 400 euro more ! I guess the solution to this would be to take a larger sound interfece such as the UFX or the 800. hum it would be short of 2 channels (actually 4 cause I want to connect headphones too). compressor), and then normally 16 for maschine (8groups stereos). Hum so 18 channels, I need 4 real outs (2 for main monitors, 2 for stereo ext. and why I saw somewhere that it's '32 Channels' ? That's why i'm interested in RME with their totalmix and apparently very stable drivers.Īnyway, please, confirm that I understood how I would set up totalmix.Įdit : by the way, I checked on the product page of the fireface UC, it says 18ins and 18 outs, but I can see only 8 outs and 1 digital.

terrible), there is sometimes good sound, sometimes it's like a bit reducer, crack, pop, etc.

Soundflower ableton drivers#

But it might be because of my audio interface, m-audio fast track pro, the drivers are terrible ( I can't record at 24bits because I'm using 4 analogue outputs at a time. And indeed, with jack osx you can use everything without aggregating, but I had some stability problems. If I only choose sound flower, I cannot receive the inputs from my audio interface. Please, can someone confirm I understood correctly ? hum that's great, but I would need 16 channels so I can route 8 stereo tracks (so 16 channels) from maschine to ableton liveĪt the moment, I need to aggregate soundflower with my audio sound card, because in ableton live, I need it to receive audio from both maschine (which is software, so through virtual connections), and also my external compressor. Then in total mix I use the loopback button on the output mixer, and in ableton I create audio track monitoring inputs 5/6, 7/8, etc. so it can be anything, analogue or digitals. I can for example route 4 channels of maschine to outputs 5/6, 7/8, etc. That leaves 14 channels to do virtual connections. So let's say I use 2 analogs inputs and 4 analogues outputs. The fireface UC got 36 channels in total so it's 18ins/18outs
