Install soundflower /or/ Blackhole

Soundflower is a routing utility : https://soundflower.fr.softonic.com/mac

Blackhole https://github.com/ExistentialAudio/BlackHole
Installer https://existential.audio/blackhole/?pk_campaign=github&pk_kwd=readme

Note that due to some reports with Soundflower issues, Blackbox is strongly recommanded !

it will then appear in your sound preferences, and can route the signal of one software to another.

Ladiocast ダウンロード

here a screenshot of the system sound preferences and soundflower menu.

In this tutorial, i'l sue it to get the sound of reaper, but can be done with other softwares, such as Ableton Live, VLC, and more.

Second input and sounflower routing

I use soundflower to route the sound of Reaper (Reaper 's main output is configured with Soundflower as its main output).

Reaper : Menu audio > périphérique audio > soundflower

In Ladiocast, to get the sound of reaper, i've then to choose Soundflower as my second input.

Adjust the levels to avoid saturation as you add a new sound source.

Each software will need a bit of adjusting the routing between the sound preferences, soundflower options and Ladiocast. The sound softwares such as Reaper, Ableton Live and co will be easy, but Firefox and VLC will need a bit of more tests and experiements.

However, that's the principle of Soundflower and Ladio ! Don't give up until you succeed !

Ladiocast Setup

Add a third input

Now i'll had a third input.

I've here a motu sound card, on which i'll plug a microphone.
Just select the sound card as the third input.
Now in the headphones, or on the stream webpage montoring, you shall here the voice.
Adjust the levels to avoid saturation as you add new sources, carefull here with the level of the voice.
