#QLAB FADE PLAYLIST AND RETURN LATER MAC#
There have been similar apps for the Mac such as Soundboard from Ambrosia but that hasn't been updated since 2013. Yet that documentation is good and the end result is excellent. Setting up Farrago, Loopback and Audio Hijack to all work together takes some thinking and some reading of the Farrago documentation. If you want to record that conversation then Audio Hijack is so good at the job as to be practically mandatory.
Farrago fits in well with them but it also shines brightest when you already have some of the others.įor instance, if you are using Skype to record a podcast conversation with someone and want to play sound clips so that they can hear them too, you need the company's Loopback app which we looked at in a previous life. Rogue Amoeba sells eight different audio apps and they're all best in class - its Audio Hijack is used by nearly every Mac-produced podcast you've ever heard in one way or another, AppleInsider Podcast included.

The editing that Farrago lets you do is basic last-minute stuff and Rogue Amoeba sells full audio editing with its separate Fission app. To be fair, if you're preparing the audio for any kind of show then you should be making edits before you add things to Farrago. If you drag in a half hour audio and want to play two minutes from the middle, it's impossible to be accurate enough. Right now if you drag in, say, a one-minute audio and just want to play the middle ten seconds, Farrago makes that easy. It would be great to see a finer editor for audio, too. We had a problem tracking down where a music track was coming from when we couldn't see it in our set: we'd inadvertently clicked it in another. It would be good if each Sound Set were its own separate silo: if you could only play sounds in that set. Yet, you can't drag from one Sound Set to another, you have to Copy and Paste.
While you can drag the sounds around to rearrange them in any order, drag and drop shuffles all the sounds around like when you're moving apps on iOS. You have to create a new one and then afterwards rename it from "Sound Set" to "Matinee Performance" or whatever you need. You can have all these different Sound Sets but creating them takes a step or two more than you'd expect, for instance.
