i'm configuring my mac book pro (2.4ghz intel core duo w/2gb ram / 

2007 model running os x 10.4.11) to do a live audio/video performance 

with max/jitter 5.05 handling video and ableton live 7.0.10 doing 

audio processing. originally i had built a vst chain in max to handle 

audio, but i need a more sophisticated audio chain and thought i'd 

just use live to do it. however, when i try to use soundflower to 

route the audio i can't get max to hear the live audio stream. i have 

live set up to input audio from my m-audio fw410 and output to 

soundflower 2 ch. i have max set up to receive soundflower 2ch. dsp 

setting are set to: driver = core audio fw410 / input device = 

soundflower 2ch / both input source and output destination have no 

options, and playthrough input is showing "unsupported." i've read a 

few threads on the list that all lead me to believe that this is a 

simple, straightforward setup, but i get nothing. i uninstalled and 

reinstalled soundflower, downloading the latest version off the c74 

site. i did my testing with a totally stripped down live setup and 

using the adc~ help file in max 5. if i set max to listen to the 

fw410 i get my input fine, showing on the adc helpfile meters - 

switching to soundflower 2ch with live playing an audio file and 

showing audio on its own meters i get nothing. i tried various 

combinations of driver options in max: core audio soundflower, core

Try building an Aggregate Device with Soundflower+ Audio Card, in your Audio MIDI setup. This should do, but be aware that as suggested before the latest versions of Soundflower do not work so well with Live.

Have you isolated just where the problem is? Can you send a signal from a program other than Live through Soundflower and into Max/MSP? Or, are you able to send a signal from Live through Soundflower and into a program other than Max/MSP?

The latest version of Soundflower ( Version 1.4.3 ) requires MaxMSP 5.06, which will be released soon.

jabbo, i did build the aggregate device (os x builti-in i/o 

aggregated per the jackpilot manual.) my wrinkle is the m-audio fw410 

interface - i need to bring audio in through that, to Live, then to 

Max and back out the fw410. not sure how the aggregate "built-in" 

device effects this signal chain. but i'm giving up on this line of 

pursuit, and going back to my original structure - doing the audio 

processing in max instead. brennon, no, i hadn't gotten around to 

testing various scenarios, too short on time, hence my plea to the list.
