Hey there,
For voice recording I use the rode smarlav+ microphone for my mac. I connect it through the Headphone Jack, which works fine.
However, it is then regarded as the sound input and output source, but it is not actually shown as the output source in the preferences.
Say I listen to music on my Mac with my AirPods and then plugin the Rode smartlav mic, my AirPods then no longer play music until I detach the smartlav. Since it is only a microphone and not a headset, I can’t hear anything as soon as it is plugged in.
So I wanted to setup a Macro that fires off as soon as I plug in the rode microphone through the headphone jack on the mac. Then it changes the audio output to either my AirPods or Beats studios. I use both with my Mac, sometime the Beats, sometimes the AirPods. Ideally, the macro would recognise whichever output source is connected (it’s always either AirPods or the Beats) and then, after the smartlav+ is connected, would re-enable the last output source.
I use ToothFairy, so I can connect my AirPods or Beats with a keystroke, which should help.
Any ideas how this might work?
