Demo and Soundflower?

Post by ui369 »

I just installed the demo and all I see is a black screen. I think it's supposed to be reading input from the microphone, but the input sources are both pointing at soundflower channels.

Anybody know what I need to do to see the demo work with Soundflower installed?

First I would disable Soundflower and make sure things are working properly with your microphone.

Assuming it works fine, then you can separately diagnose any issues with Soundflower.

How do users typically get Magic to respond to standard output, like a song playing on your computer through the speakers? My Soundflower Aggregrate devices include standard output but it doesn't respond.

I do have it working with my internal mic now, there is a little dropdown in the upper right of the Input Sources window that had evaded me.

Yes, Soundflower is one of the typical ways to get system sound output into Magic.

Using the drop-down menu that you discovered, make sure Soundflower is selected as the input device.
