How to change the software output?

Hi,

I use the RME UCX as an audio interface on Mac OS Mojave, and I used to use it with the output channels of Audirvana automatically set to output 1/2. However, I reviewed my system and prepared a separate AD/DA to connect to the UCX’s SPDIF, but I can’t change software output channel of Audirvana.
Can you tell me how to deal with this?

PS . I can listen to music with no problems except for Audirvana.

Hello @11140, do you mean you want to switch the channel used by your DAC in Audirvana?

Hi, @Damien3,

I want to switch the channel that outputs the audio from Audirvana. Currently it’s outputting from Out1/2, but I want to output it from SPDIF Out (Out7/8).

To change this you need to go in audio midi setup, select your output and then configure speakers. You will now be able to change the channels as your wish.

Of course, I changed it in AudioMidi setup. As I mentioned at the beginning, the WAV playback on the desktop comes out of OUT9/10 as configured, it doesn’t work on the output of Audirvana.

Hello @11140,

Can you send me a copy of the “Debug Info”? You can get it in Audirvana Settings>General>Debug Info

Note: By clicking on the Debug Info button, Audirvana automatically copies all its content, all you have to do is paste it in response to this message

Sorry to late responce!
The Debug info is as follows.

Audirvana Mac Version 3.5.40 (3570)
macOS 10.14.6 with 32768MB RAM

Can you also make a screenshot of your Audio midi setup of your Fireface?

Okay, we will need to make further test and come back to you. Since then, can you also try to set it as stereo only device?

Hi
How about after that?

Have you tried to set it as Stereo only? Does it work?

wow! it’s works. Thanks!
