Mac Mixer app

Post by mbr »

Hi there !

I am interested in writing a Mac OS X Mixer application.

The Midi and Audio Setup on Mac OS X permits to handle Volume controls, Format and Clock Frequency.
I guess if I like to control some custom Mixer- / Extension- / Effect-Units I need to develop my own application, right ?

How do I get started ?
CoreAudio-API ?
IOKit API ?
libusb-1.0 ?
How to assure synchronization with the OS X Volume controls ?

Anybody working on some Mixer application on Mac OS X ?

Best regards,
mbr.

This is probably the least place to look for information. I'd suggest you go to the developer website at developer.apple.com and get squinted with all what is needed. Their documentation is vast. The forums there are also quite active.
The forums here deal with XMOS' line of microprocessors.

agree with ale500, XMOS is not MAC OS/X :!:

There is an example mixer application for OSX that comes with firmware for the USB Audio 2.0 Multichannel Reference Design for doing custom mixer controls. If you have access to this firmware then you will be able to see how this is implemented.
