Is there a way to sample a loopback of the Maschine output from another app?

in Maschine

Hi guys

I want to find a simple way to sample the output from youtube (or Spotify, etc) which goes out via the Maschine HW into the Maschine SW. Like of a "loopback", but for audio coming from another app (i.e. not audio coming from Maschine SW itself).

Is this a "new feature" to be requested? It seems so evident to me that I'm thinking that there must be an easy way out of this…

Thanks

    Mac or Windows? What Maschine HW? If it's and M+/Mk3 loopback cant be added to the HW, unless they release a new HW.

    It can be added as an app / driver on your OS tho, to send audio in-between apps or simply recording the output, on Mac theres a bunch of options from free to expensive, on Windows I don't know.

    Theres is even a Chrome extension that enables recording anything on your browser and saving it to a file:

    There are both audio interfaces and additional system utilities which can enable this kind of loopback. I'm not sure which utility is the best to use at the moment, but before I had an audio interface which had internal loopback features, I used to use Soundflower. I'm sure there are modern alternatives to something like it.

    Nice! I didn't know about this little Chrome extension, that's pretty handy. Thanks for sharing!
