    Hello,

    i´m not a mac user myself but i often read here about black hole audio driver or something like that being used, maybe that´s an alternative.

    Soundflower was never ported to Apple Silicon. Therefore it doesn‘t work on Macs with M chips.

    I use Loopback from Rogue Amoeba but it isn‘t free. But offers more options as other virtual audio solitions for macOS.

    What I did on my s4 mk3 was use a cable from booth out to a line in on the same device. I called it the incest cable.

    But yeah, a software solution that just works™️would be preferred. Sad that Traktor can't send master to a second device like so many other DJ software.

    You could also see if there now is a solution within OBS that would allow you just to capture master and not cue, without 3rd party software or cables. It constantly getting updates and new addons.
