Well, it’s mentioned now 😉 FWIW I use Soundflower on my Mac Mini running OSX 10.10 and haven’t had any problems. I don’t use it with REW, admittedly, but as now noted in the opening to this (old) tutorial, you most likely don’t need it since JohnM updated REW anyway.

But i I found a working solution here:

Good luck,

Since OS X Mavericks 10.9 was released I have never got Soundflower to work at all. 1.6.6b is incompatible with OS X 10.9 as far as I can tell. I’ve just now tried the 1.6.7 and 2.0b2 builds available from fellow Github users discussed here: https://github.com/RogueAmoeba/Soundflower-Original/issues/24 and it just doesn’t work for me. I’ve tried on different MacBook Pros, new installations, new disks and with new audio interfaces present, with 1.6.6b for years, but the results are always that if I send output from any source to soundflower I can’t get it routed anywhere.

At the moment I’ve the 2.0b2 installed, which is recognized by SoundlfowerBed from 1.6.6b, but I can’t do anything with it.

I can’t move past this issue, so REW seems to be out of my reach as does FuzzMeasure as the current 4 requires Yosemite. I bought the Dayton EMM6, but it doesn’t seem I will be able to use it for any analysis.

I’ve never got Soundflower to work since OS X 10.9 was released. I just now installed a build of 1.6.7 and 2.0 builds from this thread at Github: https://github.com/RogueAmoeba/Soundflower-Original/issues/24 with some difficulty, but I can’t get sound into Soundflower period. This remains true with new hardware, new audio interface and new OS installations and have been unchanged since years.

I’ve looked at FuzzMeasure 4 too but that needs Yosemite, so won’t run.

Thanks for this solution anyway, at least users running 10.6 to 10.8 may find it useful.

It appears to be successfully installed, however. Yes my soundcard is multi channel (Presonus Firestudio Tube) Thanks

thanks again

How can I connect a X32 console to run REW ?
It’s connected to my I mac with USB ; and I tried to make a loop , but didn’t succeed.
Do I have to use a 2 channel interface instead of 32 channels from the X 32 ?
It’s not possible to choose the channel on the X 32 in REW . It’s only left or right .

It’s a free program, I think we Mac users should be grateful that the author takes the trouble to make it cross-platform and at no cost 😉
