Bug with soundflower and selecting input source

digiology's icon

Hi all,

When selecting soundflower (16 channel) and my firewire interface as an input source, max crashes when the audio is turned on.

I really think this needs to be addressed by cycling74, how do I notify them oficially?
In the mean time can anyone think of a work around?

I want to have the input from my interface going into max and then sent to my DAW (logic).

Maybe you should try with jack:

I always found it more reliable than soundflower but I guess it's just my opinion ,)

do you use the new soundflower update ?

Yes I have a recent version but not the one that only runs on OSX 10.6

I had this problem before I updated soundflower though!

I'll try jack. It seems like a downside to soundflower is that you cannot associate a physical input with a channel in soundflower. If you want audio from max recorded into your DAW you cannot simultaneously record from the interface.
