You prolly dont give a shit but does anyone know a method to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Tate Landry Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
Man. you have no clue for how long i have tried. and tried. and tried. Because PLUS: i am streaming from another laptop. and omg. Its finally all coming through. THANK YOU.
Also, instead of manually assigning every single channel to send to a "MONITOR" BUS in your DAW, you can simply create a "Multi-Output Device" for your Interface + SoundFlower in the Audio MIDI Setup app. Then you don't have to fiddle with BUS assignments for every single channel strip on every single new DAW project file. Hope this makes sense, and simplifies the process for you Logic users. Thanks for this video!!! It was incredibly helpful.
THis is without a doubt the most clear, concise video on how to do this. I've been watching videos for a week on how to do this properly and yours is the best. THANK YOU!! My only problem is latency. Trying to monitor with processing (compression/reverb, etc..) is causing a delay that is so distracting. I have a 2015 Macbook i7 2.2GHz, 16gig Ram, Clarett Thunderbolt, using Logic but still LATENCY. Any videos or tips you can offer for that? Thanks again for the great video!
Thank you Paul! So glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately latency is definitely going to be in the picture when monitoring processing from a DAW. However, it can be reduced. What’s your buffer size in Logic preferences?
@@TanoBrock usually 128. I've tried as low as 64 but then it starts crackling/popping. I will tell you something funny. After I commented I went and got an old Presonus Audiobox 44 I've had for many years and hooked it up. I actually felt it performed better slightly better. The Clarett's pres maybe way better but I wonder if it is something to do with Thunderbolt vs. Usb? It shouldn't be but maybe my Thunderbolt drivers are corrupt. I'm just getting frustrated..
@@TanoBrock I think "low latency mode" will disable most of the plugins you have inserted in Logic. I am having the same issue with latency while stream. Im get a good sound but shitty latency that kills the performance. Help on this would be insanely helpful. Edit: OBS has an offset feature but measuring the latency from interface to DAW to OBS stream is a nightmare...
Hi y'all ! This video is great. First hip cut, Installing Soundflower took me undesired minutes !! I have the Mac Book Pro 2020. When I saw the "Program failed " notice, I went straight to System Preferences, click the lock button to make changes, and click on "Allow" . Then, I closed everything and tried to install it again. All good then !!
NIce..but I still can't get any sound choosing my Apollo as Output main interface on MAC ..On my Logi Software or Quick time the sound came out perfect..But I have nothing on OBS..To get sound on SoundFlower i have to change the sound config Output what is really awful.
Hey! Did you follow the instructions carefully in the video? Are all your softwares up to date? (Soundflower, OBS?). Also, if you’re using a UAD interface, check out my new video for another method: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html
Excellent video Tano. I'm so grateful. One problem between me and transmitting to the world from New Zealand... lol... OBS doesn't have Zoom on the list to stream live??? What can I do?
Nice tutorial man. Since I have an apollo interface as well, I'd like to use the console method. Just gotta go figure out how to make my midi keyboard run through there... or can it? hmmm
This is very useful - only comment I would make is that you can mirror the output in preferences and it will send to both sets of "speakers", meaning you won't have to make every channel send to a Bus and you can actually use Bus effects without it not being heard on the stream.
I have an Apollo as well (but am still on High Sierra) and you are a life saver. I tried other solutions and this one is by far the best. Everything worked right away and without routing headaches. thank you so much!
@@TanoBrock Lots of people I know use Loopback for streaming. Any opinions on that? I'm holding off on it since it's $100, but if the functionality makes it worth it I may jump sooner than later
Its crazy, im following word for word your instructions but no audio is showing up in my obs audio capture. It used to in the past with no issuesm and then all of a sudden it stopped. Any wisdom you can shed on this?
Hi.. Thanks a lot for this informative video. I have one question. In the end you showed how the mix can be exported from Console to Logic Pro X to Soundflower. But isn't that just for audio tracks? I mean what if I'm a vocalist who wants to play his MIDI keyboard along with his singing. I guess what I directly want to ask is that, if I want to make use of zero latency, how can I make sure that entire of my mix along with my MIDI and audio is being sent from Console to Logic Pro X....
Hey! Yes, console can only have audio tracks, no MIDI. You can run your audio sources through console, and your MIDI tracks in Logic Pro X. That way you don’t have to deal with audio latency with software monitoring. Since you’re using UAD, check out the other video I made on streaming with UAD and Console: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html
What happens when your ITunes and RUclips stop playing back? As soon as I chose my midi device to the one created RUclips stopped playing I’m using no blackhole on Mac mini
HI ! Soundflower does not work with the latest MAC iOS at all ? I am following all your steps but now that I am checking signals, I am hearing a feedback when I input monitor.
Tano Brock GarageBand, I’ve been fighting with this for about 3 days, I’ve tried multiple methods! Killing me lol. For some reason, it only picks up either one, and I can only monitor one or the other. I’m using blackhole also.
Black hole I Has it’s 16 channels, and I understand you when you said my Focusrite will now be at 17 and 18 but I have no way to monitor that or set that in GarageBand! Do I need Logic?
Hi Benjamin, as long as the two tracks in GarageBand have different inputs enabled, you should be able to monitor them both by clicking the input monitor button on each track.
HOw do you talk to your audience while youre working on music? i have everything set up, but i cant figure out how to run the mic thats going into my interface. if i turn on input monitoring it works but do i have to do that everytime i talk?
Yeah, the best way is to use input monitoring. However, if you're using OBS, you could add another audio input capture (in addition to SoundFlower/Blackhole), and set that as your interface (with your mic plugged into input 1 or 2). That way you can have a separate channel in OBS that's getting the raw signal from the mic.
@@TanoBrock ohhh ok, it's only showing 2 output channels in audio midi set up, is there a way i can make more channels? i really appreciate your help by the way
@@TanoBrock yes, i think my problem was i was using a different sound capture program and it only had 2 channels, i downloaded Soundflower and saw it has the 64 channel out. but then my iRig Midi interface broke so now i need to wait for a new one and hopefully can get it all to work...will let you know! awesome video perfect just what I needed to know thank you so much
If you configured the aggregate device correctly, you should be able to choose additional outputs in your DAW (assuming the aggregate device is set as the output in the DAW). In Logic if you click and hold where it says "Stereo Output" you can see your other output options.
Great Job Tano. I was looking for a tutorial on this subject. A friend sent me the link and what a surprise when I saw who it was giving the tutorial. keep up the great work!!
Thanks man, big help. Where were you in April!?! I had so many issues setting up OBS up with Logic, largely due to latency issues. Unfortunately don't use UAD but may use it for console alone. Had to come back and revisit live streaming this weekend and this video came up, great job. Liked and Subbed.
Hi. I followed the steps correctly for Logic Pro X, but I'm not seeming to be getting any monitoring that I can hear. I can see that the signal is going into OBS, but I can't hear it. I have tried all possible outputs in my Monitor bus. Help!
Thank you bro, Please show detailed guide on setting up UAD w/ OBS as far as Mic setting, compression, plug-ins, etc. Compression? Like settings for standard voice and maybe radio tweaked voice. I barely even know how to access plug-ins or utilize the Twin duo but learning from your videos. Thank u please help.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Clear and informative!! I was searching forever for a way to stream my DAW with everything I already had (same as yours) without having to buy all this extra routing apps all the other YT videos were going on about. THANK YOU SIR!
Another tip that might work in Logic (I haven't tried it yet) so that you don't need to bus every one of your tracks manually. You route all your sounds to a single aux (highlight all midi/audio tracks on mixer, right click on "stereo out" and route to a new bus/aux. Set that aux to "Stereo Out") and then just add the reverse aux bus to the aggregate aux.
Hey man, do you ever find that at times, you get crazy feedback or sounds when using your aggregate device? I frequently get robotic distortion, very fuzzy and overdriven vocal/music, sometimes get no pick up on the logic project despite getting a clear pick up through sound card. Seems super weird but has happened before. Have tried creating a new aggregate device, same issue. Reinstalling sound flower, hoping to fix it, but wondered if I was doing something wrong.. Thanks if you get the time to get back to me here. Cheers!
This is really helpful, but I wanna know with Logic, can I stream whatever effects that I've added into it? I've been trying but it doesn't seem to get my effects when I'm streaming it... did I not do something right?
Hey Tano! Thanks for the info! My problem is that I can only get the tracks to show volume in OBS if I monitor them in GarageBand. And due to the inability of being able to make busses, I can only monitor one at a time. So I can get the guitar to have volume, but not the mic etc. any idea what I’m doing wrong? I’m running through a Focusrite 2i2 and a MacBook Pro. Thanks!
Hey man! You can monitor two tracks at once in Garageband. Just make sure they have different inputs, and then click the input monitoring button on each track.
Tano Brock I was able to get both sounds in OBS, but now for some reason, I can’t hear any effects from garage band. Just a dry signal from my mic and the guitar. Any idea why? I appreciate you helping
Very nice configuration, I have the same, but I'm using SONOBUS, do you have a tutorial also about it? Or do you think will be enough following your procedure but replacing OBS with SONOBUS?
Thanks for the details. I am using a Behringer UMC202HD to connect bass and vocals to Jam Kazam for band rehearsals. Works great! However, I also need to be able to connect keys through Main Stage 3, as I play keys on some tunes. Can you offer guidance on setting up to be able to do this? Thanks again!
An excellent video. Really well delivered. I've managed to do this with blackhole. However, I've been asked to stream to a Zoom conference. Do you happen to know how to direct the OBS audio capture so that it pipes it to Zoom? Any help would be appreciated.
@@TanoBrock Cool. I did start to consider that possibility after 2 days of tying myself in knots, but I'm not savvy enough to go with my gut! Cheers for the reply - really appreciate it.
Hey! Is it necessary to go through OBS or I can also use soundflower, console and go directly to facebook and select there soundflower as audio interface?
Hey man! It’s not necessary to use OBS, I just like it because it gives you more detailed control of the stream. You can definitely select Soundflower as the input source in Facebook and do it that way.
Yes! I’m about to post a video about how to do it without Soundflower with a UAD interface. Stay tuned! Subscribe to the channel so you’re notified when it’s up. Should be up early tomorrow
Hey my man! Super glad I found this. I followed your steps and coming out of logic I am using only auto tune and a few other stock plugs that i always record on that have low latency. I am using an apogee duet. Everything sounds fine but the moment I output everything to OBS it has a lot of latency and popping no butter what I change the buffer to in logic. Is it possible it has to do with the internet connection. I'm not sure what else it could be. Thanks again man!
On an Apollo you can just go into console and set inputs one and two to monitors 1 and 2 and you’re done. You don’t need soundflower or anything else. I use soundflower though because I use an aggregate device with an es-9 too. Still a great video, I just thought this might help someone. Thanks.
Question: very insightful video, thank you! How do I go about doing this without an audio interface or mic? My mission is just to stream Ableton and audio out from abelton to RUclips etc. can’t seem to find much information on that.
Good question! You can follow the same setup, just take the audio interface out of the equation. You can make a multiouput device that includes "built in output" and SoundFlower or BlackHole. your "built in output" will be your speakers or headphones.
Hello! We’re using Windows and we want to livestream our church live worship using OBS? We have focusrite as interface and using studio one. But somehow it’s we can’t work it out. Hope you guys can help us. Thanks!
Great vid! Is it possible to skip logic when using an Apollo device and go direct to sound flower? Or does the console software not allow routing the output like Logic does?
Hey David! Glad you liked the vid. You can’t route the output of Console to Soundflower, but you don’t need to! There’s a better way. I explain how to send audio directly to the stream from UA Console in this video: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html
question....what software did you use to record your screen for this tutorial? I love how ableton and logic are fully captured in the screen display. For some reason I can't figure out how to do that myself, the view is always super zoomed in
Which DAW are you using? Make sure the output device in your DAW is the aggregate device you created in audio midi setup. Also make sure to configure the aggregate device so that outputs 3&4 are outputs 1&2 of your interface.
Thanks, great to know. the 2 computer thing is interesting...now I need to figure out if I can run my guitar and mic on my new Mac book air M1 and send it to my pc to stream.
DUUUUUDE THANK U SO MUCH FOR THIS. I just started doing music streams and I was having trouble getting rid of lag (I’ve got an Apollo twin-MacBook-elgato-PC w/ streamlabs) I did everything you did except I had to create a multiple output aggregate device. Seems to be working perfectly 🙏
Great video, helped me a lot. In the end of the video you've said you can use 1 Mac for audio and another one for live-streaming. How do would send the audio from audio Mac to the live-streaming Mac?
Good question! You would just run TRS cables from the MON OUT of the interface connected to the audio computer, into inputs 1 & 2 of the interface connected to the video/streaming computer.
Super cool! Thanks a lot for this video. Can you help me with an issue i am having? I use a Apollo X6 with a ADAT interface and for some reason i don't understand why i can't have the signal coming from the ADAT into OBS. What am i doing wrong ?For example: If my MIC is connected in the first channel of the Apollo everything works just fine but if i use the MIC in the first ADAT channel there is no signal in OBS.
Hey! Yes, there is another virtual audio driver called "BlackHole." It is basically the same thing as Soundflower, and works with Catalina! existential.audio/blackhole/
Did you try BlackHole? It’ll work much better than Soundflower with Catalina. What DAW are you using? All you need to do set the output of the DAW to Soundflower or BlackHole
Thanks! I have not used Blackhole. However, the latency isn’t coming from Soundflower. It’s coming from the DAW itself, and changes based on the buffer size.
Tano Brock Some sound applications like sound flower, can cause additional latency. It may also depend on your audio interface. But with black hole (by existential audio), it doesn’t add any additional latency.
Trying out this version of the setup today. Just got a new Mac Studio Ultra so I'm assuming it should be able to handle things. If theres a newer way of this I'd love to know. Got a sub out of me
Ha ha. Hey what's up Tano! Thanks so much for this tutorial, brotha. I've been banging my head against this situation for the past couple days prepping for a livestream show tonight. Cheers!
How do you still hear audio from the Ableton Browser when previewing samples? 👋 When routing/C-Monitor Send channel, unfortunately, it stops preview feedback from the browser. Essentially I'm trying to Send the preview audio to the C-Monitor so I can hear my browser previews. -tried different re-routing options and I cant seem to crack it - any help would be lovely. 🙏 Great tutorial thank you!!
Hi, I followed your steps and it worked perfectly. My only problem is that I am not able to monitor my sounds from ableton through my focusrite. Instead I can only monitor using OBS monitor but the problem is there is a slight delay (latency) which means I cannot sync my instrument properly while I play along with the backing track in ableton due to a slight delay in monitoring. Is there a way to monitor using Ableton so that I can hear it in real time? Thank you!
@@TanoBrock I am not able to monitor it when I plug directly to my focusrite because my output preferences in ableton is blackhole+focusrite and for some reason the sound from ableton does not go through my focusrite monitoring. On the other hand if I set up the midi device again and instread put a check mark first on my focusrite and then blackhole 16channel, I am able to monitor now using my focusrite but this time my sound from ableton does not send anymore to OBS
You should have BlackHole occupying outputs 1 and 2, then focusrite after that (3 and 4). That way the main output of ableton gets sent to OBS. In order to monitor the sound in ableton, you have to create a monitor aux and send that to outputs 3 and 4, as I show in the video.
@@TanoBrock How do I make focusrite occuply outputs 3 and 4 if in the audio midi setup blackhole is already taking up the first 16 channels and then my focusrite 6i6 is taking up the latter channels which makes my the first input of my focusrite input 17/18 instead of 3/4.:(
In such case, even if I create a "return" track in ableton and make the outputs 17/18, and I plug my earphones on my focusrite monitor input, I am still not able to hear myself.
Hey Tano - awesome video. Straight and to the point and a real help to the community. However instead of using an Aggregate device, I would recommend using a Multi-Output device instead. You can select it from the same menu in the Audio + Midi Setup app, and it's actually made exactly for this use case. When you create the multi-output device, just check boxes for your audio interface + Soundflower and it will mirror audio to both sources. This way, when you select the Multi-output device as your audio output in your DAW, audio will automatically play to both your normal stereo out + Soundflower without needing to create an additional send or return track in the DAW. Much simpler. Power users who are interested in layering several different audio sources may also be interested in an app called Loopback by Rogue Amoeba software. It's like Soundflower on steroids, but it is a bit pricey at ~$100. Anyway - hope this helps, and keep up the good work!
Hey! Yes, I've tried using a Multi-Output device before. I prefer using an aggregate device because it allows me to have separate control over the monitor channel and the stream channel. That way, for instance, I could route a click track only to the monitor, and not to the stream.
How would you do this if you were running Logic on a MAC desktop and outputting sound via Focusrite headphone jack into a line into a video capture card hooked up to a Macbook pro running OBS?
Hey! With that setup (two computers), you don’t need Soundflower. Soundflower is only necessary for routing audio within one machine. Sounds like you already have your setup figured out! I think it’ll work just as you’ve explained it :)
Tano Brock but for some reason it doesn't. The video and sound start out in sync and quickly go out of sync. Something is cause that and I’m not sure why. I have two separate video capture cards at the moment and I have the sound from one of them going into a headphone splitter that is receiving sound from the headphone jack of my focusrite scarlett 2i2. Could that routing be the problem?
Hey thanks for this! But I have a question: I am having no issues with midi, but with my audio channel I get a lot of weird clicking, distortion type sounds. I am certain it's not a hardware issue. Any suggestions?
Tano Brock you’re very helpful, thanks. And great video! I put buffer to 256 to avoid this issue, but the audio quality is patchy. I’m working from a MacBook Air with a 1.8ghz process and 8gb ram. Running two audio lines and midi keyboard. Do I need a better machine?! Thanks man!
Thanks for the video. I followed your direction and I'm on a mac using Blackhole and Scarlett 2i2 interface. I'm unable to get any audio fx to be applied to any of my audio channels...it just has the basic raw sound. Thoughts on what to do?
Hmm, if you follow the steps in the video exactly you should be able to hear any audio fx. what does your routing setup look like? how are you monitoring the sound?
@@TanoBrock I’m sure that your method works ...I probably wasn’t following exactly how I was supposed to. I did, however figure out a way that worked for me. I created three auxiliary tracks. I used one for my mix, another one for my monitor, and another one to shoot out sound to black hole. It worked. Maybe the way I did it added things that were not necessary,. Not sure. All I know as it works. Thanks for helping me along my way
Great video! May I just ask that, if I wanna use console to mix the band I won’t be able to hear it through the studio monitor am I right? Cuz it’s going into soundflower. Just wanna double check. Thank you for video again.
Hey! Glad you liked the video. If you have a UAD interface, check this method: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html. This will allow you to stream directly from Console and hear everything you're doing!
Will every single track need a monitor send? And does this create lag or any other issues that you know of? Logic User. Great video thanks for the tutorial!
That's great! How can we send ProTools audio to HDMI output of a computer, so that it can be connected to video switcher like Blackmagic ATEM mini as one HDMI input? (we then stream from another computer)
Hey! You don’t need to send audio via hdmi. You can use OBS or other streaming software to link DAW audio with blackmagic video switcher. If you want to stream video from a different computer, just send the main outputs of your interface into the inputs of an interface hooked up to the video computer.
using multichannel output device as audio output source in your daw plus using aggregate device as audio input into OBS gives you hella recording latency per layer recorded, likey anywhere from 11 milliseconds to 25 milliseconds per layer added, I highly recommend using 2nd interface, zero recording latency equals better track... get out what you put in
Hi Tano - I have followed these steps but no input coming into the OBS. I am using a Focusrite Scarlett and logic x. The bus idea works but the OBS still shows the mic line as the input and the Soundflower one is dead. Any ideas what is going wrong?
@@TanoBrock hey I got it to work but I can't hear what i'm playing through logic in my headphones but I can hear the dry signal that is coming direct from the Scarlett?
Tano, THANK YOU for this video. Super easy to understand. I was able to watch and pause while setting up my own computer. Question: At the very end of the tutorial with Logic, I ended up backward from you. In OBS .. Audio Mixer: Mic/Aux and Soundflower.. When I play my guitar, only Mic/Aux shows any sound. Nothing (no bars) on "Soundflower" .. I hear my guitar and see the bars on Mic/Aux in OBS, then a second later, I hear my guitar and see the sound bars in Logic.
Okay. And your aggregate device is set so Soundflower occupies output 1&2? And that’s where your stereo output in logic is going? Try setting the input for mix/aux in OBS to Soundflower 2ch
Ok .. I think this is where things got confusing: @ 6:06 in your video, you create a monitor track that sends to Output 3&4. .. That didn't seem to work for me. When I changed the monitor track to send to "Stereo", I could play my guitar and see it in logic and OBS. Thank you for your quick answers to my questions. I'll play around with streaming and see if this current configuration works out. Thanks again.
Hey Tano, I just wanted to follow up for anyone reading this thread .. your instructions work perfectly "as-is". I restarted my computer, reopened Logic and OBS, and my weird scenario where I could only get to OBS if set the send to "stereo" no longer worked. So, I set it to BUS 3 (per your instructions), and I saw the feed in OBS. So, your instructions were right on for me - as they will be for everyone else. My advice: If you follow Tano's video, and something doesn't work, try restarting. :)
Hey @Tano Brock I'm using BlackHole on MacOS Catalina. I'm using a Shure SM7B with the UA Arrow Input 1 into Logic (stereo track setting inputs to 3-4 since those are the outputs for Arrow). What channels do I set my output tracks so OBS will receive it?
Hi, really good video! Hoping you can help. I'm using logic with a Saffire Focusrite interface that comes with Saffire Mix Control which I don't believe has the option of putting effects on. Is there any way around this? Ideally I'm looking to have logic effects being heard over Facebook Live
Thank you! I explain in the video how to use effects in logic, that’s why we use Soundflower - to route the sound from logic to OBS. You can use any effects you want in logic, and the mix will be sent to OBS via Soundflower.
Can u make a tutorial, how to connect microphone into appolo twin x and logic pro x? I can’t heard my voice once i start to recording. I can only heard my voice in console. 😖 i hope u can help me to solve this
When I put an EQ on my stereo out, I cannot hear the changes through my monitors - but the screen recording (or livestream) can hear the changes. How do I set it up for mixing and mastering? I am using Logic Pro X 10.6.1
Hey man! Instead of using the Stereo Out track as your Master Bus, make a custom Master Bus using an aux track. Set the output of all your tracks to that Bus. Then you can add a send on your master bus that connects to your monitor bus. That way you’ll be monitoring the master bus, hearing everything the audience hears.
Great video! how do you also record your voice at the same time? Did you record it in another devide (iPhone for example) and then sync with final edit of you video? Thanks a lot!

@@TanoBrock cool man thanks 😊
What is the alternative for Windows users tho? Can you please explain ?
This is very useful - only comment I would make is that you can mirror the output in preferences and it will send to both sets of "speakers", meaning you won't have to make every channel send to a Bus and you can actually use Bus effects without it not being heard on the stream.
how do you do this? I am still unable to hear the "monitor" through a bus and am wondering if this could be an alternative method.

Good tip! Although I do prefer having individual control of the headphone mix if needed.
At the top of the Sunflower link it states "M1 chip-based Macs are NOT YET SUPPORTED". Are there any solutions available for M1 Mac owners??
can you try BlackHole or IShowU alternatives to Soundflower?
I have an Apollo as well (but am still on High Sierra) and you are a life saver. I tried other solutions and this one is by far the best. Everything worked right away and without routing headaches. thank you so much!

Would I be able to stream myself recording my vocals in Logic with these settings?
I have a new M1 Macbook. It looks like soundflower is not supported?
Try BlackHole! That’s what I’m using these days
@@TanoBrock Lots of people I know use Loopback for streaming. Any opinions on that? I'm holding off on it since it's $100, but if the functionality makes it worth it I may jump sooner than later
Hey! Where does Loopback fit into this? I have it installed to stream Logic over Zoom.
Its crazy, im following word for word your instructions but no audio is showing up in my obs audio capture. It used to in the past with no issuesm and then all of a sudden it stopped. Any wisdom you can shed on this?
this totally helped me solve getting from nowhere to audible, I am very much appreciative!
Hi.. Thanks a lot for this informative video. I have one question. In the end you showed how the mix can be exported from Console to Logic Pro X to Soundflower. But isn't that just for audio tracks? I mean what if I'm a vocalist who wants to play his MIDI keyboard along with his singing. I guess what I directly want to ask is that, if I want to make use of zero latency, how can I make sure that entire of my mix along with my MIDI and audio is being sent from Console to Logic Pro X....
Hey! Yes, console can only have audio tracks, no MIDI. You can run your audio sources through console, and your MIDI tracks in Logic Pro X. That way you don’t have to deal with audio latency with software monitoring. Since you’re using UAD, check out the other video I made on streaming with UAD and Console: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html
What happens when your ITunes and RUclips stop playing back? As soon as I chose my midi device to the one created RUclips stopped playing I’m using no blackhole on Mac mini
Hey! I'm a little confused as to what your issue is. Can you explain more?
HI ! Soundflower does not work with the latest MAC iOS at all ? I am following all your steps but now that I am checking signals, I am hearing a feedback when I input monitor.
Hey! If you're running Catalina, you should use BlackHole instead of SoundFlower.
Is there a way to do this with a mic plugged in input 1 and guitar in input 2? Having trouble with this! Can only get it to pick up mic! Thanks
Hey! This should work just fine using 2 inputs. What daw are you using?
Tano Brock GarageBand, I’ve been fighting with this for about 3 days, I’ve tried multiple methods! Killing me lol. For some reason, it only picks up either one, and I can only monitor one or the other. I’m using blackhole also.
Black hole I
Has it’s 16 channels, and I understand you when you said my Focusrite will now be at 17 and 18 but I have no way to monitor that or set that in GarageBand! Do I need Logic?
Hi Benjamin, as long as the two tracks in GarageBand have different inputs enabled, you should be able to monitor them both by clicking the input monitor button on each track.
Nice video! Thanks for keeping it concise.
Thank you! Make sure to subscribe if you haven't already :)
HOw do you talk to your audience while youre working on music? i have everything set up, but i cant figure out how to run the mic thats going into my interface. if i turn on input monitoring it works but do i have to do that everytime i talk?
Yeah, the best way is to use input monitoring. However, if you're using OBS, you could add another audio input capture (in addition to SoundFlower/Blackhole), and set that as your interface (with your mic plugged into input 1 or 2). That way you can have a separate channel in OBS that's getting the raw signal from the mic.
At 5:53, i only get the one stereo out option, i can't select 3 &4 or anything else
How have you set up your aggregate device in audio midi setup? And is it selected as your output device in your DAW?
@@TanoBrock ohhh ok, it's only showing 2 output channels in audio midi set up, is there a way i can make more channels? i really appreciate your help by the way
@@TanoBrock yes, i think my problem was i was using a different sound capture program and it only had 2 channels, i downloaded Soundflower and saw it has the 64 channel out. but then my iRig Midi interface broke so now i need to wait for a new one and hopefully can get it all to work...will let you know! awesome video perfect just what I needed to know thank you so much
After watching about 5 different videos covering this for Logic this was the only one that got it working for me. Thanks!
when I click to show stereo channels I’m not offered any? It just says stereo output
If you configured the aggregate device correctly, you should be able to choose additional outputs in your DAW (assuming the aggregate device is set as the output in the DAW). In Logic if you click and hold where it says "Stereo Output" you can see your other output options.
Great Job Tano. I was looking for a tutorial on this subject. A friend sent me the link and what a surprise when I saw who it was giving the tutorial. keep up the great work!!
Thanks Leo!! I hope you’re well ☺️
i'm getting a really crackly sound when monitoring in logic after following all of your steps. please help this is incredibly frustrating!!!
Hmm what’s your buffer size?
Bless you, sir.
Thanks man, big help. Where were you in April!?! I had so many issues setting up OBS up with Logic, largely due to latency issues. Unfortunately don't use UAD but may use it for console alone. Had to come back and revisit live streaming this weekend and this video came up, great job. Liked and Subbed.
Thank you! I posted this video in April! haha
@@TanoBrock so you did! I was clearly out the loop, glad I found ya!
Hi. I followed the steps correctly for Logic Pro X, but I'm not seeming to be getting any monitoring that I can hear. I can see that the signal is going into OBS, but I can't hear it. I have tried all possible outputs in my Monitor bus. Help!
Switch the outputs for soundflower and your audio interface. I’m not sure if your audio interface has direct monitoring, but that’d what I use
great video, Thanks, but I cannot install sounflower would you know why?
What OS are you running?
Thank you bro, Please show detailed guide on setting up UAD w/ OBS as far as Mic setting, compression, plug-ins, etc. Compression? Like settings for standard voice and maybe radio tweaked voice. I barely even know how to access plug-ins or utilize the Twin duo but learning from your videos. Thank u please help.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Clear and informative!! I was searching forever for a way to stream my DAW with everything I already had (same as yours) without having to buy all this extra routing apps all the other YT videos were going on about. THANK YOU SIR!
This was extremely helpful with my live stream setup on the new platform LoungesTV. Thank you my guy!
Another tip that might work in Logic (I haven't tried it yet) so that you don't need to bus every one of your tracks manually. You route all your sounds to a single aux (highlight all midi/audio tracks on mixer, right click on "stereo out" and route to a new bus/aux. Set that aux to "Stereo Out") and then just add the reverse aux bus to the aggregate aux.
Hey man, do you ever find that at times, you get crazy feedback or sounds when using your aggregate device? I frequently get robotic distortion, very fuzzy and overdriven vocal/music, sometimes get no pick up on the logic project despite getting a clear pick up through sound card. Seems super weird but has happened before. Have tried creating a new aggregate device, same issue. Reinstalling sound flower, hoping to fix it, but wondered if I was doing something wrong.. Thanks if you get the time to get back to me here. Cheers!
This is really helpful, but I wanna know with Logic, can I stream whatever effects that I've added into it? I've been trying but it doesn't seem to get my effects when I'm streaming it... did I not do something right?
Yes, the method I show in the video will stream any effects you’re using in Logic. It streams the stereo output of logic.
Hey Tano! Thanks for the info! My problem is that I can only get the tracks to show volume in OBS if I monitor them in GarageBand. And due to the inability of being able to make busses, I can only monitor one at a time. So I can get the guitar to have volume, but not the mic etc. any idea what I’m doing wrong? I’m running through a Focusrite 2i2 and a MacBook Pro. Thanks!
Hey man! You can monitor two tracks at once in Garageband. Just make sure they have different inputs, and then click the input monitoring button on each track.
Tano Brock I was able to get both sounds in OBS, but now for some reason, I can’t hear any effects from garage band. Just a dry signal from my mic and the guitar. Any idea why? I appreciate you helping
What is the input source in OBS?
Very nice configuration, I have the same, but I'm using SONOBUS, do you have a tutorial also about it? Or do you think will be enough following your procedure but replacing OBS with SONOBUS?
Thanks for the details. I am using a Behringer UMC202HD to connect bass and vocals to Jam Kazam for band rehearsals. Works great! However, I also need to be able to connect keys through Main Stage 3, as I play keys on some tunes. Can you offer guidance on setting up to be able to do this? Thanks again!
An excellent video. Really well delivered. I've managed to do this with blackhole. However, I've been asked to stream to a Zoom conference. Do you happen to know how to direct the OBS audio capture so that it pipes it to Zoom? Any help would be appreciated.
Hey! Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. If you’re using Zoom, you don’t need to use OBS. You can just choose BlackHole as the audio input in Zoom.
@@TanoBrock Cool. I did start to consider that possibility after 2 days of tying myself in knots, but I'm not savvy enough to go with my gut! Cheers for the reply - really appreciate it.

Hey my man! Super glad I found this. I followed your steps and coming out of logic I am using only auto tune and a few other stock plugs that i always record on that have low latency. I am using an apogee duet. Everything sounds fine but the moment I output everything to OBS it has a lot of latency and popping no butter what I change the buffer to in logic. Is it possible it has to do with the internet connection. I'm not sure what else it could be. Thanks again man!
great video! Can I use the same method (but use midi piano from logic) to send OBS to zoom for online classes ?
sir, great video
But I use blackhole, overstep is just like yours, no sound and level in OBS, but I can hear in Logic tho, please help thank you
On an Apollo you can just go into console and set inputs one and two to monitors 1 and 2 and you’re done. You don’t need soundflower or anything else. I use soundflower though because I use an aggregate device with an es-9 too. Still a great video, I just thought this might help someone. Thanks.
Question: very insightful video, thank you! How do I go about doing this without an audio interface or mic? My mission is just to stream Ableton and audio out from abelton to RUclips etc. can’t seem to find much information on that.
Good question! You can follow the same setup, just take the audio interface out of the equation. You can make a multiouput device that includes "built in output" and SoundFlower or BlackHole. your "built in output" will be your speakers or headphones.
Hello! We’re using Windows and we want to livestream our church live worship using OBS? We have focusrite as interface and using studio one. But somehow it’s we can’t work it out. Hope you guys can help us. Thanks!
Hi! What is the specific issue you’re encountering?
Great vid! Is it possible to skip logic when using an Apollo device and go direct to sound flower? Or does the console software not allow routing the output like Logic does?
Hey David! Glad you liked the vid. You can’t route the output of Console to Soundflower, but you don’t need to! There’s a better way. I explain how to send audio directly to the stream from UA Console in this video: ruclips.net/video/o_yGke-rWg4/видео.html
@@TanoBrock Ah great workaround. Thanks man! Keep up the good work. (Also i miss my 102, sold it a month ago!)

I've been using iShowU!
Hey was really helpfull and thanks a lot for this. i am not able to see the option for 3/4 for my monitor out
any help????
Which DAW are you using? Make sure the output device in your DAW is the aggregate device you created in audio midi setup. Also make sure to configure the aggregate device so that outputs 3&4 are outputs 1&2 of your interface.

Great video, helped me a lot. In the end of the video you've said you can use 1 Mac for audio and another one for live-streaming. How do would send the audio from audio Mac to the live-streaming Mac?
Good question! You would just run TRS cables from the MON OUT of the interface connected to the audio computer, into inputs 1 & 2 of the interface connected to the video/streaming computer.

do you have a solution for the click track? i'm not able to hear it. would appreciate it!
Soundflower does not work on Catalina... is there a work around?
Hey! Yes, there is another virtual audio driver called "BlackHole." It is basically the same thing as Soundflower, and works with Catalina! existential.audio/blackhole/
Tano Brock ok so I was able to get the soundflower to install but I’m having a hard time configuring it with the presonus firestudio
Did you try BlackHole? It’ll work much better than Soundflower with Catalina. What DAW are you using? All you need to do set the output of the DAW to Soundflower or BlackHole
Tano Brock I’m using Logic.. somehow I got it to work but I’m not sure how... the presonus is a difficult mixer to operate
Nice video. It seems the latency issue could be resolved by using Blackhole instead of sound flower? Have you tried using Blackhole before.
Thanks! I have not used Blackhole. However, the latency isn’t coming from Soundflower. It’s coming from the DAW itself, and changes based on the buffer size.
Tano Brock Some sound applications like sound flower, can cause additional latency. It may also depend on your audio interface. But with black hole (by existential audio), it doesn’t add any additional latency.
Oh for sure! Thanks for the tip. I’ve heard of it, but haven’t used it. I’ll check it out.
Trying out this version of the setup today. Just got a new Mac Studio Ultra so I'm assuming it should be able to handle things. If theres a newer way of this I'd love to know. Got a sub out of me

How do you still hear audio from the Ableton Browser when previewing samples? 👋

Hi, I followed your steps and it worked perfectly. My only problem is that I am not able to monitor my sounds from ableton through my focusrite. Instead I can only monitor using OBS monitor but the problem is there is a slight delay (latency) which means I cannot sync my instrument properly while I play along with the backing track in ableton due to a slight delay in monitoring. Is there a way to monitor using Ableton so that I can hear it in real time? Thank you!
You should be able to monitor in Ableton. What happens if you enable monitoring on a track in ableton?
@@TanoBrock I am not able to monitor it when I plug directly to my focusrite because my output preferences in ableton is blackhole+focusrite and for some reason the sound from ableton does not go through my focusrite monitoring. On the other hand if I set up the midi device again and instread put a check mark first on my focusrite and then blackhole 16channel, I am able to monitor now using my focusrite but this time my sound from ableton does not send anymore to OBS
You should have BlackHole occupying outputs 1 and 2, then focusrite after that (3 and 4). That way the main output of ableton gets sent to OBS. In order to monitor the sound in ableton, you have to create a monitor aux and send that to outputs 3 and 4, as I show in the video.
@@TanoBrock How do I make focusrite occuply outputs 3 and 4 if in the audio midi setup blackhole is already taking up the first 16 channels and then my focusrite 6i6 is taking up the latter channels which makes my the first input of my focusrite input 17/18 instead of 3/4.:(
In such case, even if I create a "return" track in ableton and make the outputs 17/18, and I plug my earphones on my focusrite monitor input, I am still not
able to hear myself.
Hey Tano - awesome video. Straight and to the point and a real help to the community. However instead of using an Aggregate device, I would recommend using a Multi-Output device instead. You can select it from the same menu in the Audio + Midi Setup app, and it's actually made exactly for this use case. When you create the multi-output device, just check boxes for your audio interface + Soundflower and it will mirror audio to both sources. This way, when you select the Multi-output device as your audio output in your DAW, audio will automatically play to both your normal stereo out + Soundflower without needing to create an additional send or return track in the DAW. Much simpler.
Power users who are interested in layering several different audio sources may also be interested in an app called Loopback by Rogue Amoeba software. It's like Soundflower on steroids, but it is a bit pricey at ~$100.
Anyway - hope this helps, and keep up the good work!
Hey! Yes, I've tried using a Multi-Output device before. I prefer using an aggregate device because it allows me to have separate control over the monitor channel and the stream channel. That way, for instance, I could route a click track only to the monitor, and not to the stream.
Tano Brock ohh that’s an interesting use case I never thought about! cool to hear other techniques for this type of thing. All good then, carry on! ✌🏼
Best of luck man, I see you're just starting out. And thanks for all the info it is much appreciated!
Thanks so much man! appreciate it :)
How would you do this if you were running Logic on a MAC desktop and outputting sound via Focusrite headphone jack into a line into a video capture card hooked up to a Macbook pro running OBS?
Hey! With that setup (two computers), you don’t need Soundflower. Soundflower is only necessary for routing audio within one machine. Sounds like you already have your setup figured out! I think it’ll work just as you’ve explained it :)
Tano Brock but for some reason it doesn't. The video and sound start out in sync and quickly go out of sync. Something is cause that and I’m not sure why. I have two separate video capture cards at the moment and I have the sound from one of them going into a headphone splitter that is receiving sound from the headphone jack of my focusrite scarlett 2i2. Could that routing be the problem?
Wow brilliant, took ALL day to find this....OBS is quite laborious.....this is a great fix....Thanks! Will give this a try

I'm having the same issue. I'll let you know if I figure it out.
What’s your buffer size?
Tano Brock you’re very helpful, thanks. And great video! I put buffer to 256 to avoid this issue, but the audio quality is patchy. I’m working from a MacBook Air with a 1.8ghz process and 8gb ram. Running two audio lines and midi keyboard. Do I need a better machine?! Thanks man!

Thanks for the video. I followed your direction and I'm on a mac using Blackhole and Scarlett 2i2 interface. I'm unable to get any audio fx to be applied to any of my audio channels...it just has the basic raw sound. Thoughts on what to do?
Hmm, if you follow the steps in the video exactly you should be able to hear any audio fx. what does your routing setup look like? how are you monitoring the sound?
@@TanoBrock I’m sure that your method works ...I probably wasn’t following exactly how I was supposed to. I did, however figure out a way that worked for me. I created three auxiliary tracks. I used one for my mix, another one for my monitor, and another one to shoot out sound to black hole. It worked. Maybe the way I did it added things that were not necessary,. Not sure. All I know as it works. Thanks for helping me along my way
Thank you! It helped but without sunflower - I took loopback and Blackhole with OBS.
Do you have a video for two separate computer? Just wondering how’s the audio route works with two computer?

That's great! How can we send ProTools audio to HDMI output of a computer, so that it can be connected to video switcher like Blackmagic ATEM mini as one HDMI input? (we then stream from another computer)
Hey! You don’t need to send audio via hdmi. You can use OBS or other streaming software to link DAW audio with blackmagic video switcher. If you want to stream video from a different computer, just send the main outputs of your interface into the inputs of an interface hooked up to the video computer.
using multichannel output device as audio output source in your daw plus using aggregate device as audio input into OBS gives you hella recording latency per layer recorded,
likey anywhere from 11 milliseconds to 25 milliseconds per layer added,
I highly recommend using 2nd interface, zero recording latency equals better track...
get out what you put in
Hi Tano - I have followed these steps but no input coming into the OBS. I am using a Focusrite Scarlett and logic x. The bus idea works but the OBS still shows the mic line as the input and the Soundflower one is dead. Any ideas what is going wrong?
Hi Andrew, it sounds like something must be wrong with your routing. How is your Aggregate device set up?
@@TanoBrock hey I got it to work but I can't hear what i'm playing through logic in my headphones but I can hear the dry signal that is coming direct from the Scarlett?
Any idea how to get a click track to headphones but not obs? I'm using ableton
Thank you! I’m wondering this too
Tano, THANK YOU for this video. Super easy to understand. I was able to watch and pause while setting up my own computer. Question: At the very end of the tutorial with Logic, I ended up backward from you. In OBS .. Audio Mixer: Mic/Aux and Soundflower.. When I play my guitar, only Mic/Aux shows any sound. Nothing (no bars) on "Soundflower" .. I hear my guitar and see the bars on Mic/Aux in OBS, then a second later, I hear my guitar and see the sound bars in Logic.
Thanks! Glad you found it helpful. What is the input for source for “Mic/Aux” in OBS settings? What is your output device in Logic?
Audio Midi Setup: Create Aggregate "Duet + Soundflower"..
OBS: Create Audio Input Capture “Soundflower” / Device = Soundflower (2ch)
Mic/Aux = default
LOGIC: Preferences - Audio Output Device = “Duet + Soundflower”
Logic Audio Input Device = Duet USB
Okay. And your aggregate device is set so Soundflower occupies output 1&2? And that’s where your stereo output in logic is going? Try setting the input for mix/aux in OBS to Soundflower 2ch
Ok .. I think this is where things got confusing: @ 6:06 in your video, you create a monitor track that sends to Output 3&4. .. That didn't seem to work for me. When I changed the monitor track to send to "Stereo", I could play my guitar and see it in logic and OBS. Thank you for your quick answers to my questions. I'll play around with streaming and see if this current configuration works out. Thanks again.
Hey Tano, I just wanted to follow up for anyone reading this thread .. your instructions work perfectly "as-is". I restarted my computer, reopened Logic and OBS, and my weird scenario where I could only get to OBS if set the send to "stereo" no longer worked. So, I set it to BUS 3 (per your instructions), and I saw the feed in OBS. So, your instructions were right on for me - as they will be for everyone else. My advice: If you follow Tano's video, and something doesn't work, try restarting. :)
Hey @Tano Brock I'm using BlackHole on MacOS Catalina. I'm using a Shure SM7B with the UA Arrow Input 1 into Logic (stereo track setting inputs to 3-4 since those are the outputs for Arrow). What channels do I set my output tracks so OBS will receive it?
Hope to hear from you soon... I've got a project due next week and this method would be really helpful
So sorry I didn't reply to this sooner. Did you figure it out? It should be whatever you set up in Audio MIDI setup...

Can u make a tutorial, how to connect microphone into appolo twin x and logic pro x? I can’t heard my voice once i start to recording. I can only heard my voice in console. 😖 i hope u can help me to solve this
Hey! I think you can find this information pretty easily on the UA website, or in the manual for the Apollo twin.
When I put an EQ on my stereo out, I cannot hear the changes through my monitors - but the screen recording (or livestream) can hear the changes. How do I set it up for mixing and mastering? I am using Logic Pro X 10.6.1
Hey man! Instead of using the Stereo Out track as your Master Bus, make a custom Master Bus using an aux track. Set the output of all your tracks to that Bus. Then you can add a send on your master bus that connects to your monitor bus. That way you’ll be monitoring the master bus, hearing everything the audience hears.
