I'm using Soundflower on OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.4 to route my audio-out to audio-in. This works great for iTunes or Spotify, but when I record audio from the iOS simulator the audio only comes out from my right headphone (I'm not really sure if that means its mono, or if it's dropping a channel). I've tested playing audio through SoundflowerBed to my headphones, and also capturing the audio and streaming it to an iPod to be played back. In both cases, the audio only comes out the right earphone. SoundflowerBed is using the maximum buffer size of 2048. Does anyone know what would cause only the iOS simulator to play mono audio through Soundflower, or have a potential fix?

I'm also looking into other solutions besides Soundflower, but it looks like Jack only works for applications that support it (i.e. Not the iOS simulator), and Audio Hijack Pro may only support recording to files rather than rerouting (haven't looked into that program much).

If it were possible to route the headphone jack into the microphone jack with some sort of cable, that would work too. Edit: I think this question could use the tag 'Soundflower' but I don't have enough rep on SU to craete new tags.

Edit2: I found a fork of Soundflower called. It does the same thing as Soundflower but it also records to a WAV file. Interestingly, when I play back the WAV file it has both channels of audio, though it still only plays through the right headphone when streaming to the iPod touch. I'm going to look into what WavTap is doing when recording to the WAV file - something they're doing is fixing the problem.

Hmm, I haven't worked out a solution with Soundflower, or an alternative called Jack (when the simulator audio is routed to Jack it crashes the iOS app running inside of it). Unfortunately, my conclusion at this point is that a 3.5mm male-to-male cable (just a regular auxiliary cord) is the best approach. It's reliable, won't cause crashes, and provides stereo sound. The cord has the downsides of cost and having to buy and plugin hardware (which is harder in a mac colo setup). Additionally, you won't be able to selectively route audio from certain applications and not others – but this disadvantage is true for Soundflower as well.

Up until yesterday (24th October 2012) SoundFlower was working fine on my mac to enable me to hear Adobe Audition C5.5 and RECORD what I was hearing through my speakers - was using Soundflower 2ch set up for input and output, and then setting Soundflower to Built-in Output in order to hear and then record what I was hearing through Adobe Audition. Today, 25th October 2012, I boot up and it won't work. Now I can't hear Adobe either but i can hear iTunes. I searched on Google and my heart sank as I saw threads about Mountain Lion OS problems and Soundflower. Any ideas/help?

(ps I've tried loading previous versions of Soundflower but no joy - you go back too far and you get the Power progs are not supported anymore message) - Rory iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3) Posted on Oct 25, 2012 4:39 AM. Before you follow the steps below:- Go to PREFERENCESSecurity & Privacy - you need 'Anywhere' selected in your 'allows applications downloaded from' section. Anyway - the solution I've found/discovered/worked out myself with a combination of helpful forum listings:- In order for Soundflower to work on Mountain Lion 10.8.2 you need to CREATE A NEW MIDI DEVICE You can do this via FinderApplicationsUtilitiesAudio Midi Setup Hit the + at the bottom and select CREATE MULTI OUTPUT DEVICE.

Then configure via this weblink picture (section 2 screen shot) Then highlight the new multi device so it has a blue border around it and click on the cog at the bottom and select USE THIS DEVICE FOR SOUND OUTPUT. Then go to the Apple (top right of your screen)PreferencesSounds. Select Soundflower 2ch for INPUT and MULTI-OUTPUT DEVICE for your output. The soundflower black petals icon will not appear in your quick menu, top right, but it will work. You should now be able to RECORD and LISTEN to the audio you're playing (I've been recording through Adobe C5.5).

Hope this works for you. I'm using Soundflower 1.6.5 Posted on Oct 29, 2012 8:45 AM. Before you follow the steps below:- Go to PREFERENCESSecurity & Privacy - you need 'Anywhere' selected in your 'allows applications downloaded from' section. Windows vista premium upgrade.
