By default it will create a very simple pass-through device (if you already have Loopback simply click "New Virtual Device"). This is where using both Audio Hijack and Loopback together can create some magic.įirst, we launch Loopback. To solve this we first have to capture QuickTime Player's audio, then we have to make it appear as though it's coming from an audio input device so that Skype will accept it. It's just an app that plays through an audio device. Skype allows you to set one audio device as its "microphone." The problem is QuickTime Player is not registered with your system as an audio device. This makes the seemingly-simple task of sharing both your microphone and, say, audio from QuickTime Player with someone on the other end of a Skype connection quite tricky. Very few have the ability to capture multiple audio devices, and even fewer can capture both audio devices and audio from applications themselves.
Many apps on your Mac have the ability to choose one device as their audio input. This lets you pass audio into it from one app and pull that same audio out of it from another.

In the way we'll use Loopback today it's best to think of it as a software pipe that pretends it has a hardware device on each end: audio input on one and audio output on the other. Today we build upon that and use Loopback to allow your Skype or Google Hangouts guests to hear not only your audio but any theme music or other audio snippets you might want to play. Recently we discussed using Audio Hijack's experimental Low Latency Mode to be able to hear your own signal while recording your podcast.
