Found a work-around for the mic access problem (thanks to the Audacity community) >From Terminal: open /Applications/miniAudicle.app/Contents/MacOS/miniAudicle This opens miniAud and triggers a request for Mic access for Terminal which allows it to function within miniAudicle.
As far as I know, this workaround is not permanent. It needs to be repeated the next time you want to open miniAudicle (and use the mic). ----------------- David Loberg Code School of Music Western Michigan c...@wmich.edu ________________________________ Fra: David Loberg Code <d.loberg.c...@wmich.edu> Sendt: onsdag 27. november 2019 16:39 Til: ChucK Users Mailing List <chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu> Emne: Re: [chuck-users] Mojave/Catalina mic access issues Spencer, Yes. It seems to be affecting people with OSX 10.14 or 10.15 with new installs of ChucK. (I have seen three separate cases now.) Your suggested temporary fix won't work, because, as I pointed out in my first post, the problem is that miniAud is not listed as an option in Privacy -> Microphone. Scott, Thanks for your reply too, but the issue is that we DO want to use the mic. So commenting it out won't help. miniAudicle runs fine for these people otherwise (i.e., there are no crashes, and the UGens work, etc.) davd p.s. I also have never resolved my last miniAud vs. hardware issue in which it will not receive any trackpad data from a set of 2012 MacBooks. It has been a frustrating semester since the trackpad doesn't work on the old laptops and the mic doesn't work on the new ones. ----------------- David Loberg Code School of Music Western Michigan c...@wmich.edu ________________________________ Fra: Spencer Salazar <spencer.sala...@gmail.com> Sendt: onsdag 27. november 2019 12:18 Til: ChucK Users Mailing List <chuck-users@lists.cs.princeton.edu> Emne: Re: [chuck-users] Mojave/Catalina mic access issues Hey David, Thanks for noting this for us- Im guessing theres some kind of whitelist if you used miniAudicle with audio input before upgrading to Mojave, as neither Ge nor I seem to be having this issue. Do you see "miniAudicle" listed under System Preferences > Security and Privacy > Privacy > Microphone? If so, checking this box next its listing may work as a temporary fix while we pursue a permanent solution.

The problem my students are encountering is that miniAudicle doesn't show up as an identified app on the list, so they can't click the box to allow access, and thus they can't use adc in ChucK. Is there either: a) a ChucK workaround? OR b) a system file or something to which miniAudicle can be manually added as a recognized app that uses the microphone?
