Hardware monitoring has been supported since the very first release of
Mac OS X (actually it was supported even before that) and was improved
greatly in 10.3 with the addition of more kinds of controls the driver
can provide that modify the monitor signal path.
Thanks Jeff. Can you clarify - does this allow for full matrix mixing
under the control of the (hypothetical) app if the hardware/driver
supports a full matrix mixer, or is it restricted to some kind of
simpler many-to-two, or direct one-to-one input->output scheme (the
latter being worst-case, a la the old ASIO Direct Monitoring scheme)?
Apps and drivers have yet to catch up with what the system supports in
this area.
Indeed - a chicken and egg situation it seems. At least the next time
someone points the finger at CoreAudio, I'll have some information to
refute that.
