Re: Mac and Vocaster 2 with TRRS cable and MacBook speakers

['Mervin Keck III' via MacVisionaries]

Thanks Brad, Herbie and all: I was able to solve the issue by turning off the Monitor on the TRRS track in Reaper. It was on by default.

When headphones are plugged in, they should become the default output device. If you can identify what sound you hear coming from the Mac’s speakers, you should be able to set the output for that source to the default output, and not a specific device, such as the Mac’s speaker. If you are hearing VoiceOver through the Mac’s speakers, you can set the output for VoiceOver in VO Utility > Sounds, so that VO output is sent to the system default, which should be the headphones. HTH.  - Brad - On Mar 11, 2025, at 20:47, 'Mervin Keck III' via MacVisionaries <macvisionaries@googlegroups.com> wrote: I am using Reaper with my Vocaster II and my MacBook Pro. I have my iPhone 14 Pro Max connected to the Vocaster II via TRRS and all is configured in Reaper. My issue is that some sound comes out of the Mac even if I plug a headset into the 3.5mm jack on the Mac. I’m concerned about it interfering with recording while my microphone is live. Is there some setting I am missing to turn down or off the Mac speakers while recording through the Vocaster using Reaper? I also have the complete Rogue Amoeba suite of 8 products if that helps.
