Hi all,
Like many other people I would like to go live streaming. For the last few days I am trying to sort this out without success. I know that this issue has been mentioned quite a few times before and I have read many posts but there are details on my settings that I haven't found.
System:
M1 MacBook Air (Monterey)
Traktor Pro 3 (3.5.2 299)
Audio 6
Pioneer DJM 800
2 Technics 1210
1) Through my research I came across OBS and blackhole. First thing after installing everything was to open midi set up and create an agreegate device.
a) I have seen videos were they are creating an agreegate device as well as a multi output device. Should I create only an agreegate device or both?
b) Does the order of devices on agreegate device matters? For example I have Traktor 6 and Blackhole 2ch, does it matter which goes on top?
c) Do I include only these 2 options (Traktor 6, blackhole) on agreegate device?
d) Drift connection should be ticked or not?
e) One more detail in this section is about the icons next to the devices. There are 2 icons in general, one for input one for output. Is this arranged by the choice I make on sound options? Does it matter on which device they belong on midi setup?
- One detail is that I don't have built input as an option on midi set up.
- All the settings including traktor are on 48Hz
2) Next step is sound options.
On the scenario that I create only an agreegate device and not multi output I set the agreegate as output.
3) Traktor settings
a) Audio set up. Set it to agreegate device.
b) Output routing. Set it to internal. On output monitor I don't have the option of headphone L and R. These are the options I have for output monitor, output master and output record
After my research my head was ready to explode so I started playing with different combinations of the above things. At some point I noticed that pressing the headphone button on traktor (underneath key knob) would give me sound on my external speakers but both channels would play from 1 channel. To be honest I am fed up. I spent money recently getting the M1 because my old Mac could not handle streaming. I thought that it would be a straight forward process. My technical knowledge is very basic. Please if anyone has any suggestions on how to make this whole damn thing to work it would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance!
