Nice device. Might be interesting if you thought outside the Jack. On MacOS there is BlackHole (open source) and Loopback (by one of my favorite companies, Rogue Amoeba). And creating a CoreAudio virtual audio driver on MacOS is easier than ever if you take a frontier LLM for a spin.

I have done a small amount of work on macOS but it is not a priority. I did some preliminary work with this nice library:

I have also thought some about whether or not I could make BlackHole work.

My takeaway so far is that macOS is more of a hassle for developing this stuff. It doesn't help that CoreAudio is not open source and the docs are hard to navigate. Hopefully someone will fix JACK-router on macOS one of these days.

I was just informed over email that there is a new piece of software for macOS called JackMoebius:

Assuming this works, this effectively replaces the broken JACK-Router driver. I’m looking forward to trying this out with ETH-68
