Routing Metronome to MacBook Jack While DAW Master Outputs to Audio Interface

Post by Idemax » Wed Feb 19, 2025 6:50 pm

Hi,

I recently purchased an analog synth (Korg Volca Bass—absolutely loving it!) and I’d like to route the metronome output to my MacBook’s headphone jack while keeping the DAW’s master output directed to an external audio interface.

I’m using a MacBook M2. Could you advise on the best way to achieve this setup?

Thanks!

Watch this video about creating Aggregate Devices on a Mac. It allows multiple audio devices, in your case the headphone output and your audio interface, to operate as a single device.
