#Audio loopback trial#
The trial version of LoopBeAudio works for 60 minutes after its first use.
#Audio loopback free#
Free Evaluation Copyĭownload our free evaluation copy here. It keeps LoopBeAudio's playback and record format in sync, displays details like format, monitor and default device and gives you fast access to the Sound Control Panel.
#Audio loopback driver#
LoopBeAudio's driver comes with a small system tray application. While using LoopBeAudio you can forward the audio data to your "real" audio output, without the need for matching formats A little Status Application in your System Tray.
#Audio loopback windows#
LoopBeAudio lets you configure an audio device with more than 8 channels, but Windows will not provide the speaker positions here, therefore LoopBeAudio will behave like a multichannel Line device Independent Monitoring
LoopBeAudio's "Internal Playback" simulates virtual speakers with all possible surround configurations of Windows.Ĭonfigure up to 24 channels with Virtual Line devices
Test every Surround Setup with Virtual SpeakersĬonfigure LoopBeAudio with the Windows Sound Control Panel like every other audio device. Programs do not need to link with special libraries, so LoopBeAudio works with every audio-capable Windows application. LoopBeAudio is a native Windows™ WDM kernel mode driver, so expect the lowest possible latency. Build a virtual 7.1 surround device, even though you don't have the built-in hardware. Configure up to 24 audio channels, a sample rate from 8000 Hz to 384000 Hz with a bit depth from 8 bit to 32 bit. The technical limits are only restricted through the Operating System. LoopBeAudio is a virtual audio device to transfer audio between computer programs, digitally, without any quality loss.

"Monitors" is the pulseaudio terminology, but terminology was never pulse's strong suit.Ĭould you change your pull request to include the loopback devices in all_microphones with the exclude_monitors or include_loopbacks flag? It might require appending "Loopback" to the device name to differentiate them from the microphones.Īudio_file_name2 = filedialog.askopenfilename(filetypes=(("Audio Files", ".wav. I must conclude that exclude_monitors is currently the best way to go. Because of that, and the above cross-platform compatibility, I don't want to add all_loopbacks/ default_loopback after all. The problem is, however, that as far as I can tell, Core Audio on macOS does not support loopback devices at all. The only reason I included exclude_monitors at all, is because it was so tremendously useful for testing. The maintenance burden of maintaining several different APIs is horrendous, and not something I want to do. I think it isn't that bad to just have separate functions for windows-specific functionality. From the point of view of SoundCard, however, they are clearly microphones, since you use them to record audio data. I can see that this is confusing, since loopback devices are both, speakers and microphones. "loopback devices" are actually speakers and not microphones Tl dr: The best solution would be to implement a new _Loopback class that inherits from _Microphone and implement the according default_loopback and all_loopbacks methods. I eventually got it working on one computer by runningpacmd load-module module-loopback latencymsec1.
#Audio loopback code#
A solution to prevent having too much code would be to have the theoretical _Loopback class inherit from the _Microphone class and just change the constructor to enable loopback recording (at least in case of the Windows implementation). I am trying to do simple microphone loopback to immediately play to the speakers. This might complicate the code a bit, however it would result in much better consistency across all platforms (not sure if macOS supports this kind of recording). However I think that the optimal solution would be to isolate the "loopback devices" and "monitors" in a different class (much like _Microphone and _Speaker, there would be a separate class named _Loopback).
Additionally I think it wouldn't make it simpler, because you would have to differentiate between platforms in the application code.
I was thinking in this direction, however it would be a little counter-intuitive due to the naming being a bit backwards, because "loopback devices" are actually speakers and not microphones.
