I've been setting up a spare room as an online guitar and bass teaching studio and was banging my head against the wall trying to get this very combination working with multiple audio inputs and struggled with routing and terrible latency. I followed your instructions from this video and it worked perfectly. I am so grateful to you for taking the time to put this together - I was almost at the point of giving up on it!
Thank you so much for you kind message. It was an absolute head scratcher getting it working first time round. If you could give me a sub that would be most helpful. Good luck with the teaching.
Thank you, Alex. I used this setup for my first livestream the other day, and I've had multiple people comment on the sound quality despite my messing up the mix at the last minute.
I've followed along through the steps several times, but my mic isn't registering in OBS. I can hear it in my headphones It registers in my Apogee Duet interface It registers in Logic But nothing in OBS. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Hi Alex, thanks for the video. One question - what did you change during the jump cut at 10:43 to make the buses start picking up the audio from your mics? I've got all the settings looking the same way you do but I'm not seeing any audio signal registering on the buses I made.
Good resource for getting my OBS and LPX working together. However, at 12:04 it seems as if you cut out something or the video skipped. Where in the previous mentions did you reference "Blackhole 16ch" which you selected in the audio capture...? I was really attempting to follow you as I'm using a Focusrite 18i8.
Hi, i use garage band and i follow all these steps but i think im missing the part where you convert all channels to bus 1. Do you know how i can do this with garageband?
one question, which may be obvious. When live-streaming from OBS to UA-cam, in UA-cam's advance settings, where should the Audio pull from? (the aggregate device or blackhole)? Thanks in advance! Also, on Logic, should the input through this method be set to the newly created aggregate device OR the interface. I see you have both the input and the output in Logic set to the new device.
@@AlexBaylymusic Almost- When in youtube, I hit "webcam" to start streaming. Under the Advanced options, it gives me the ability to take the audio from the following: (internal, blackhole 16 channel, aggregate device, or interface. Which should I pick if everything is sounding good when I test recording in OBS?
@@AlexBaylymusic Maybe the better question is- If I'm using both an external webcam AND the audio from Logic through Blackhole to OBS, when in UA-cam, should I select Stream or Webcam? Thanks
so what if its not higher than 3 or 4? Ive been looking for that. Using older Mac Late model 2013 w 10.13.6 High Sierra. Would love something straightforward to resolve this. Thanks for the knowledge in the meantime
Great video, I have watched a few and I like your approach. So here is my gotcha issue, when I go into Audio devices, and select my interface and BlackHole 16ch, I dont see that menu of the sub devices with the corresponding channels.
thanks for wonderful tutorial, can we listen to the recorded track saved in logic pro session while broadcasting it through logic proX and obs ? I wanna play flute over the saved track in logic and broadcast live ?
Hi Alex. I wonder if you could help. I had OBS working back in December but every now and then it went distorted during a live stream. Eventually by the 3rd gig it was only distortion. So i uninstalled blackhole and reset everything up. I just tried it with a recording and its still just distorted and half way through the recording the audio to blackhole in OBS just cuts out. Any ideas? I tried streamyard last week which was fine just for me on one mic but really i need all my backing tracks from logic
You. Are. AMAZING. Thank you SO much for this! I used your old video to set up my streams and up until last night's gig it was fine then the sound went HAYWIRE every time I started streaming - had to cancel the gig. Thought I might need a new computer when I found your updated video and reinstalled with BlackHole and so far so good so must have been Soundflower that was screwing things up? Either way, this video is beyond helpful and the template is a godsend. Also streaming "New America" on repeat :) Thanks again for helping us figure all this craziness out! Literally could not have done this without your videos!
Hi Minhee. Thanks so much for the kind words. I’m glad you found the video useful and thanks so much for checking out my music means a lot! Good luck with streaming! Thanks
hi i have a problem setting up ableton live and blackhole, cause i lose my 3,4,5,6 CHANNEL and i cannot use my eraphones monitor..i only get 1 and 2 master channel chocing multiple output from ableton audio output... i have an AUDIENT interface
Hi Alex, thanks for your video! I had a problem with a livestream earlier today and found this video when trying to get set up for it to work next time. You've done so much to help us with this video, but after going through it twice I'm still having trouble, and was wondering whether you'd be up for helping clear it up? If so, here goes: I've routed everything exactly as you said in Logic but am not getting a signal to go from my inputs (1-4) to the mix / output / blackhole channels when I'm playing live. My tracks are all record enabled, and weirdly if I actually press record in Logic and then play them back, I do get a signal in the mix / output / blackhole channels, and *that* audio goes through to OBS fine. In Logic - Audio I've selected my aggregate device as input and output, and in OBS - Peferences - Audio I've selected my aggregate device as well (is this right, or should it be Blackhole 16ch?). In System Prefs - Sound what should be selected there please? Also, in Audio Midi setup should I be right clicking on either Blackhole 16ch or my aggregate device to select "use this devide for sound input / output"? Can you think of any reason why OBS would be accepting the pre-recorded sound from Logic but not recognising live sound? I would be super grateful for any help with this! I feel like you're the only person who knows how to do the exact thing I'm trying to achieve. Best wishes, Laura
Weirdly, I also just tried using your template (adjusting the inputs of course and changing the outputs to the ones that match my Blackhole device) and I'm having the same problem. Argh!
Hi Laura, firstly thanks so much for watching the video and I hope you found it useful. I am based in the uk it’s 10pm here. So I’m basically going to bed. I am around tomorrow day if you want to contact me you can. Best way is probably Instagram and I can give you my email. If you can send me screen shots of your audio midi setup screen, logic mixer and one audio then I will try and figure it out. I’m sure it’s a simple fix. If you can send stuff tonight I can have a quick look. If not I’ll have a think tomorrow and try and get it sorted. Thanks Alex
HI Alex Thanks for the video it helped me a lot. Any tips on connecting iphone via NDI. I’ve downloaded and paid for app, downloaded plugin/patch for Mac but The NDI option is not available in OBS? Cheers 🍻😎👍🏼
That’s the one i have got. I can get it working with iphone charging cable... the NDI is for connecting via WIFI, but it gives me no option to connect via WiFi in OBS... do you connect via the phone wire or WiFi? Cheers for replying
@@mullyliverpool Hi Chris, I know what your talking about now. I did try it I think but I couldn't get it to work. Although it would be great if you could get it to work. My issue is I'm on a iphone 6 and the battery life is terrible so my phone would just run out if I didn't have it plugged in so I just go into the computer and keep charged and connected.
Hey Alex, I'm having problems with the template. When I try to change the output channels to 5&6 for my set-up they are all greyed out. Audio preferences are also greyed out and therefore unclickable for me. Any advice? Thanks!
This is really useful! Tiny question tho - could you not just set the output of the master to the black hole instead of creating the aux tracks? I think I might be missing the reson for putting the output on a bus?
Really great vids! It helps me a lot. I don't know what the problem tho. Everything's fine in LOGIC but shit starts too glitch af in OBS, the sound sometimes freezes and the only way too get it too stop is too remove the blackhole in MIDI/audio. Any ideas?
Hi Alex, this video (and the previous one, too) has been a game changer, really appreciate the input from Ryan as I'm a user of Midi instruments. Thank you so much!

My concern is that the processing required for recording will create a lag that builds up the longer the video goes on for? What do you think? Thank you!

@@AlexBaylymusic got it, thanks. Actually tried it last week in an hour long stream, midi-piano and vocal.

Alex Bayly thanks to your first vid I think I set up and ready to go . Not being too ambitious just one condenser tonight but in future I’d love to combine my full logic projects live . Cheers matey
Hi Alex! Brother, I so appreciate your tutorials. As a MacBook Pro and Logic guy, getting those platforms to talk is great! You did a great job of explaining it, even with Soundflower, but I was glad to see the tutorial with Blackhole as an addendum. That's the one I needed. I will send you a little gift for your help. I sure wish it could be more. On another note, using Logic Pro, is there a way to go back after a recording and do overdubs, etc...? I realize I'd need to be recording into Logic simultaneously and the different software would need to be synced. That's probably beyond the scope of OBS which is fine but I was just wondering. Perhaps you have recommendations for editing software that would allow those advanced features. Do you have any recommendations for plug-ins for editing an OBS session or software that would be best for such aspirations? Thanks Alex! Darrin
Hi Darrin, I think you could run Ableton as a slave to logic via rewire. But you'd have a lot CPU heavy programs going at the same time then. Which might be a bit intense on your machine. But worth a go. I hope that helps!
Amazing video, thank you so much for uploading! I just have one problem. When I'm livestreaming on facebook I hear both logic x output and dry audio interface output and I just can't seem to figure out why. Any ideas?
Hey dude, I'm using this but do you know how to do to add Spotify On too when you stream? so say I wanna be able to Record my Voice as well as putting Spotify on to show my viewers? ^_^ Maybe you said it in the beginning you're not sure how to do it dunno.
Spotify you will need to download the songs you want and put them in Logic. Unless you can re-route the output of Spotify but I think it will be tricky.
hey Alex been watching tons of videos. trying to figure out best settings. Im trying to figure out the ducking effect using a compressor side chain for when I talk. as well as a few other things.
Great video alex, it helped a lot! Were you listening to the logic output through your computer built-in output or through the output on your interface? I'd like to set up a stream where someone can do live mixing in logic while my band plays.
Hamm's Odyssey you should be able to do that listen via logic x to blackhole then OBS. Although I think you would want to get the mix set up as best you can before you start.
Thanks so much!!! Everything finally works now, so I can start streaming anytime soon :)) I do have one question, related to the effects. Can I, for instance, put reverb and/or delay on sends with the output to blackhole?
Hi Elliot. Glad it helped! As long as you route with the buses to the right output yes should work. Although the more plugins you use the more latency you introduce and cpu usage. It’s a bit of a balancing act. Good luck
Have just noticed this follow up video, brilliant, thank you! My system seems to be under pressure streaming through Logic Pro with two audio inputs and one midi input - I’m using a MacBook Air 8GB ram, 1.8 GHz processor. Poor quality, crackling etc! What hardware do you use/recommend? Thanks
@@AlexBaylymusic I pushed buffer size up to 256 to ease the burden on processing. Still very crackly audio, especially when the two audio inputs were going at the same time. We also had two cameras on the go at the same time and there was very little harddrive space available too. As it happens, we have an new machine on the way with stronger spec! Will let you know how it goes. What kind of RAM and processor do you use to operate decent audio comfortably? Thanks for taking the time to get back, much appreciated and best of luck with everything!
DTM chess hi good to know. I will have a play around with it on my MacBook Air again soon. I feel like Obs updates have become more cpu intensive which won’t help things. But I’m sure we can figure a work around. It’s been mention a couple of times this issue so I will try and address it in another video ASAP.
@@AlexBaylymusic so cant you just set up your master channel in logic to route to 19 and 20 on your Audio MIDI Setup? Thats my issue... Im using FL Studio but I want to send 100% of the sound including the master from FL out to OBS... I have a different hook up but opening plugins in FL cuts my sound output to OBS and im looking for a new way of routing
qthecaptain ah ok. I tried to figure out for someone using fl studio but I don’t really use it. Hypothetically what you are trying to do is possible you would jus there to figure out how to route it on do studio
Yes I’ve started to notice this is it on your stream or the video recording? It might be the audio nitrate in OBS or you are hitting the compressor or limiter to hard in logic.
BTW, Alex, my PayPal isn't finding your account. I'm not sure why. I tried through my app and online with your link. Let me know if I need to do something different. :)

@@AlexBaylymusic so cant you just set up your master channel in logic to route to 19 and 20 on your Audio MIDI Setup?
Thats my issue... Im using FL Studio but I want to send 100% of the sound including the master from FL out to OBS... I have a different hook up but opening plugins in FL cuts my sound output to OBS and im looking for a new way of routing
qthecaptain ah ok. I tried to figure out for someone using fl studio but I don’t really use it. Hypothetically what you are trying to do is possible you would jus there to figure out how to route it on do studio
Love it
I imagine you found it very useful.
@@AlexBaylymusic always, my first stop for this type of advice 👌
no one thanks man 👍
every now and then ill get distorted audio?
Yes I’ve started to notice this is it on your stream or the video recording? It might be the audio nitrate in OBS or you are hitting the compressor or limiter to hard in logic.
BTW, Alex, my PayPal isn't finding your account. I'm not sure why. I tried through my app and online with your link. Let me know if I need to do something different. :)
Ah OK perhaps it's because I'm in the UK. paypal.me/alexbayly?locale.x=en_GB here is the link again... But no stress! Appreciate the kind comments and the sub!
