Apple Music won’t be integrated in Audirvana Studio the way Tidal and Qobuz are, any time soon. But there is always Music integrated mode that can help. The idea is to output sound through the Audirvana playback engine and use the Music interface for browsing the content.
If you’re on a Mac, just select “Music integrated mode (legacy)”. Should work with Atmos too, but I haven’t tested it. Don’t see why it shouldn’t work.
I tried it and doesn’t seem to do anything, just acts as a on-screen remote, if that makes sense. There’s no processing (Robian, when selected), no Atmos or anything. Weird.
Oh, and a hellava lot of crashes. I so wanted this to work.
I agree Music Integrated Mode is present but doesn’t do anything for me. The Apple Music app can access my DAC via Sound Preferences but only 44.1kHz appears to available
I’m using v3.5.46.
How does one use Apple Music with Music Integrated Mode?
But more importantly does this mode support Hi Res formats now a available on Apple Music?
Music integrated mode will play the tracks of your Music library with the settings of Audirvana.
If you set Audirvana to play in an un-sampled mode, it won’t upsample the tracks in your Music library.
If you set Audirvana to an upsampled mode, it will upsample the tracks in your Music library.
This is valid only for your local tracks. AS can’t process tracks that are streamed by Apple Music.
If Music plays its own tracks, or streamed contect, without AS, it’s playback to your DAC is not limited to 44.1. You can set the frequency of its output with the Midi Configuration app.
