<div dir="ltr">Ah, that's right I forgot: using one AUHAL audio unit only works if you are using the same device for input and output, otherwise you need to create two as you found out. Unfortunately this is the default setup on a macbook, but I found that it still works if you create an "Aggregate Device" in the 'Audio Midi Setup' preference pane (it'll also work with hardware sound I/O interfaces).<div>
<br></div><div style>Yea not sure how to leave those samples / what modifications to make to PdAudioUnit - if you get something working that is fairly general maybe we can work it in.</div><div style><br></div><div style>
About the AUGraph, the limitation I ran into was trying to feed either speech synthesis or AUFilePlayer output into pd from a render callback - I could only get it to work with straight Audio Units and AudioUnitSetProperty. See here for the gory details:</div>

<p>However for this purpose I didn't need audio input so I opted for the Default Output unit. As you can see in the link from the previous email this simplifies the code A LOT :) Maybe it'd be useful to have two projects for output only and input/output. With the former being a very quick way for people new to libpd to get a project up and running. </p>
<p>Regarding my issue with libpd not processing audio, as Dan pointed out, it <i>should </i>be working. However, thinking about it more it could be due to how I built the libpd library. I noticed Rich added the whole source code into his project so I'll try that and see if it makes any difference. Weird!</p>

<div><br></div><div>In essence, there were only a few things that needed to be modified. Off the top of my head, they were:</div><div><br></div><div>- switch the audio unit to kAudioUnitSubType_HALOutput</div>
<div>- enable an input audio device (required on OS X, not on iOS)</div><div>- fix some Obj-C syntax issues that are different on OS X (property synthesis generation I believe)</div><div><br></div><div>
By the way, you can use the C++ wrapper quite readily with any other existing audio framework that provides OS X support - I use it in cinder apps and of course Dan provides ofxPd. I know others who have used portaudio or FMOD directly.</div>

How do you mean the CoreAudio backend? I would have thought I should just be able to call the process function in my render callback. Did you check out the code I posted? I happy to provide that as an AudioController for libpd on OSX. Messages and print objects work correctly but libpd is not processing any audio. <div>
