WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
What I have is a small macOS app that takes the input from a system default device (MBP microphone) and routes it to a custom driver (think BlackHole ExistentialAudio-BlackHole). I can record the sound perfectly fine through audacity (when the app is in its recording state) ONLY when I manually select the default output device (in the Audio MIDI Setup, or sound preferences) to the BlackHole driver. What I want to achieve is to route the audio to the custom driver independently of the currently selected output device (in the settings), think Discord app and their settings panel, where you can select any output device that you want without changing the output manually in the Audio MIDI Setup, and all of the "audio passthrough" will be unaffected.
