Hi Bill,

this is for me, for some tests on a remotely controlled (ssh) Mac Mini - it's about testing various USB playback/DAC devices...

So, though not recommended for a commercial app (which make a lot of sense), I'd like to be able to change these setting from the command line.
It there a way or do I need to build a small core audio command line prog for that?
(Or can't I change these setting even with Core Audio?)

We generally prefer that you do not change the user's default device settings, but rather let this be in the control of a user directly (thus only UI such as Sound Pref Pane should change these)

We also generally recommend that you work with the current settings of a device rather than changing these as well.

So, perhaps the right place to start is to ask why/what you want to change here?

Hi all.

In System Preferences->Output one can choose the output device and in Audio Midi Setup the format of the output.
How can I change these settings from the console?
And ideally get a list of audio devices too.


Can this be done or just using APIs (in the later case I'd appreciate some pointers where to start looking).

Best
Mark
