SoundSource for Mac

Massively Faster Device Switches

• Switching output devices is now nearly instant, the way it ought to be, thanks to backend optimizations.
• SoundSource now supports custom channel mappings for multi-channel devices.
• A device-specific default icon is now used for AirPods Pro 3, and a generic AirPods icon is now used if the model is
• unclear. In addition, custom icons are now available for Mac Pro, MacBook (Air), Mac Mini, and Mac Studio.
• SoundSource’s “Play feedback when volume is changed” setting is now correctly respected system-wide.
• Optimizations have been made to prevent distorted audio caused by sample rate changes when Bluetooth devices entered
• duplex mode.
• SoundSource now properly supports scrolling in the “System” section, making it possible to add as many effects to the
• system output device as you like. Scrollbars in both the “System” and “Applications” sections have also been improved.
• SoundSource's window height can no longer grows outside of the bounds of the display on which it's shown, and resizing
• it manually is now smoother.
• Effects hosted in pinned windows will now always properly respond to mouse clicks.
• Output Groups and AirPlay devices now both correctly respect the “Audio Processing” setting in the “Audio Devices”
• window.
• The “Output Only” setting for Bluetooth devices is now properly respected when loading quick configs.
• A rare bug where scrolling the Application sources list could result in SoundSource pinwheeling has been eradicated.
• Scrolling performance in long lists has also been improved.
• A crash that could occur when the system’s appearance changed between Light and Dark mode has been fixed.
• General reliability improvements have been made to fix an assortment of thankfully uncommon crashes.
• SoundSource once again correctly saves its current state to disk whenever changes are made, rather than only when the
• app is quit. This avoids the possibility of lost settings. This process has also been optimized.
• Adding an active AirPlay device to an output group now works as expected, rather than spinning indefinitely and failing
• to complete.
• Magic Boost can once again correctly be turned on or off via a shortcut.
• The previously overly-flat disclosure arrows in SoundSource’s main window have been inflated, and now have a better
• angle.
• The “FX” indicator will no longer incorrectly remain visible when no effects are active.
• Duplicate entries will no longer appear in the “Preferred Device Order” sheet.
• Errant notifications for maximum volume enforcement of devices that aren't connected will no longer be seen.
• When “Preferred Device Order” was enforced, an inaccurate notification about which device had become the system input or
• output device could appear. Now, the notification will be accurate, and that’s better.
• Keyboard shortcut assignments can now be properly cleared via the VoiceOver actions menu, with more detailed action
• names are now provided for assigning and clearing shortcuts.
• The control-click/right-click contextual menu now always properly appears for the Code field of the License window,
• allowing pasting via the mouse. This is a further fix, to workaround an apparent bug in WKWebView.
• Nicknames for effects are now limited to the visible width of the text field, approximately 25 characters.
• The Quick Config menu will now animate when a config is loaded via keyboard shortcut.
• Element heights and margins have been standardized in ways which are likely to go unnoticeable, but which are
• nonetheless correct. Popovers also now rapidly animate in, including both SoundSource’s main window, and effects
• windows.
• When the main window is pinned, SoundSource’s secondary windows no longer hide when the app is deactivated. This changes
• matches SoundSource 5’s window behavior.
