TIP: Soundflower WORKS in Big Sur

I'm having this problem with the installer "failing". However, as you said I do see the extension installed in /Library/Extensions, but doesn't seem to be working at all. Don't see the alternate output/input channels. Any ideas? Already tried rebooting and uninstall reinstall.

you're welcome. and thanks for the tip about allowing kernel extensions for M1 users. in another thread there's an M1 user that hasn't been able to get either soundflower OR black hole working. i'll submit this to them. maybe it will work for them.

DART is hardware feature in M1 Macs which performs address translations) interrupt. not sure if it caused my client frozen, I didn't try black hole audio driver yet, do you know where I can download it?

Hi, I just tested out Blackhole, but is there a way to connect it with your speakers? Because when I record my screen using blackhole I can't hear my speakers but when I play the video back with the output as the internal speakers I do hear the internal audio from my Mac. Does anyone know a possible solution?

If anyone knows a solution to this on SoundFlower, that would be very helpful.

Thanks...

Hi! Thanks for this info. Could this be why after multiple attempts to Download BlackHole Audio Driver (on two computers) I don’t see it in the Applications list? Also, there are two versions- one a 2 and the other 16, any idea which is right? I tried both. Thank you, I’m pretty technical, but can’t wrap my head around this! (Running a 2018 MBAir)

I have tried to install it twice and nothng. Does anyone know if Soundflower is addressing this issue?

you're welcome.

Luis, I depend very much on Soundflower and was panicking over the idea that I would lose it in Big Sur. Thank you so much for your post explaining how to salvage it (at least for now!).

I guess you are using Intel Mac, does M1 Mac work? I rebuilt it into ARM64 and it will freeze the client

yes luis,

danielwilk39 confirmed on page 1 that blackhole did indeed work on his M1 MBP.

no problem :)

BlackHole Virtual Audio Driver

I took a look, Black Hole is using HAL audio plug-in, it is in user mode, it is different than SoundFlower which is using kernel extension
