hi there,

on macosX 10.8

is there anyway to have multiple audio devices as inputs?
I am using ma moth 4pre for mic inputs, but would also like to use a headset connected to the computer via USB.

output can be all through the moth so no problem there.

is this possible?

thanks

drew

not 100% sure about 10.8 but at least on 10.6 it's possible to make a "virtual" soundcard (ie. multiple soundcards show up as one in audio programs) using aggregate device on the audio/midi control panel.

using multiple cards this way may cause issues with audio sync - for example - but it's definately worth a try.
