Rogue Amoeba Loopback - Perpetual License

Loopback is the virtual audio routing utility for macOS made by Rogue Amoeba Software: it creates virtual audio devices that combine the sound of applications and physical inputs and hand the result to any other app as if it were a microphone or a sound card. It suits podcasters, streamers, teachers and anyone who records or broadcasts from a Mac and needs to bring a guest's voice, a music player or a browser tab into Zoom, OBS, QuickTime Player or a DAW without cables or a hardware mixer. This listing is a license key for Loopback 2: it unlocks the full version of the free download from the developer and removes the audio degradation that the trial applies after twenty minutes.

This product is a perpetual license key for Rogue Amoeba Loopback: it does not expire and can be used on 1 Mac running macOS. The key is delivered by email together with the activation instructions.

A typical setup takes a few minutes: create a new virtual device, add the sources you need (for example the built-in microphone and a music app), wire them to the output channels, add a Monitor to hear the mix in your headphones and switch the device on. From then on it appears in the audio input menus of every app on the Mac, even when Loopback itself is closed.

Key Features:

• Virtual audio devices: Each device combines any number of applications and physical inputs (microphones, audio interfaces) and shows up system-wide like a real microphone, so any app that records or streams can pick it up.
• Sources and Output Channels: Applications and input devices are added as sources with their own channels and volume; the wires between sources and output channels decide what goes where, from a simple mono or stereo device to a multichannel one.
• Pass-Thru: The built-in Pass-Thru device sends the audio of one application straight to another: select it as the output in the first app and as the input in the second.
• Monitors: Monitor devices route the audio flowing through a virtual device to your headphones or speakers, so while you record or stream you hear exactly what the other app receives.
• Nested Devices and volume controls: A virtual device can be used as a source inside another one, and every source and output has its own volume slider and mute button, so even a complex mix stays manageable from a single window.
