Thanks.
Rogue Amoeba's Loopback worth the price?

This is great, and I was able to get it working. I can't thank you enough.cuttime wrote:I just tried it and it works with my Traveler 1st Gen.

I start all of my projects with the same template, and it's been so long since I've even looked at the Bundles window that I forgot that I need to add Mix 1 and 2 to the Inputs. I couldn't figure out why I couldn't see them as an option in the Tracks Window, and now I know.
I'm using an 828mkII, and the only thing I've noticed is that when I'm playing back the track I recorded and hit Stop, I get a buzzing sound until I disengage playback for the track. When I activate it again, there's no buzz until the next time I hit Stop. I'm not sure what's causing it unless I've created some type of loop, or why the buzzing doesn't start as soon Playback is activated. Not a big deal, as long as I don't blow up anything.

Good deal. Glad you got it to work, but yes, be careful, as you can create some fearsome feedback loops this way.rentadrummer wrote: I'm using an 828mkII, and the only thing I've noticed is that when I'm playing back the track I recorded and hit Stop, I get a buzzing sound until I disengage playback for the track.

It does annoy me that this one utility is more than half the price of Logic Pro X...
Definitely overpriced if you ask me.
Especially when it's clearly a reskinned soundflower.

Re: Rogue Amoeba's Loopback worth the price?
Now that i've been using LoopBack for 10 months of quarantine. I'm going to say it was money well spent.
Having used SoundFlower before that, I'm very happy with how LoopBack works.
In the early months, it would occasionally glitch: go silent, or have garbled sound. I'd quit & restart the app and it was fine. Whatever issue that was was fixed in a subsequent release.
In hindsight, with my RME interface and its excellent TotalMix software, along with AudioMIDI Setup's aggregate device feature, I could have accomplished what I needed.
But I find that with Rogue Amoeba's Loopback and Audio Hijack it's quick and easy to route things around without any hassles. The GUI is also very nice.
