AudioSwitcher overview

AudioSwitcher is a menu bar application that gives quick and easy control over AirPlay and other audio devices.

  • In addition you can change the volume of any device without having to change your current input / output.
  • You can output to multiple devices at the same time.
  • You can quickly change the sample rate from the main screen
  • Using the preferences screen you can choose to ignore certain devices, set a default start-up input or output device as well as its volume. *
  • AudioSwitcher supports any device available to the system: AirPlay, USB, HDMI, Thunderbolt, Bluetooth, etc.
  • AudioSwitcher is ideal if you have multiple sound devices attached to your Mac and want to be able to switch between them without having to use System Preferences.
  • It's great for a home theatre set-up allowing selection of default devices (and their volumes) on start-up as well as allowing you to quickly route output to AirPlay devices in one click.

Note: Volume control is only supported if the hardware device provides a volume control; HDMI, notably, does not.

The description of the product indicates that it supports AirPlay devices. In High Sierra it does not. No Airplay devices are displayed even if you indicate you want to use them as a group.. In order to see one from a AirPort Express, you must first choose it in the Sound Preferences and then open up Audio Switcher to see it. However if you try to use it with any other device in multimode it disappears. Additionally only one Airplay device can be shown at a time. So if you are using an Airport to connect remote speakers to an App (other than iTunes) and want to hear it on your computer as well, this App will NOT allow you to do it. In reality this is a menu bar App that functions the same as Apple Midi Setup but with a nicer, easier to understand interface. I suggest saving your time and money and just launch Apple Midi Setup from Spotlight instead. I just wasted time and a buck for a tool that proves to be absolutely useless for me.

When you rewrite, please include the ability to rename sources (create aliases) and also remove certain inputs from the initial list by having a dropdown at the top for ALL or Favorites.

Difficult to uninstall, can't get the app out of my Sound Preferences even after trashing the app along with related preference files. There must be one I've missed...

Safari warns, upon initiating an attempted download from the developer, that the certificate for www.serialangels.co.uk has expired. Might wanna fix that.
