Mix what your audience hears separately from what you hear.
mactooloud routes each app to a different output: game audio to your stream encoder, Discord to your headphones, Spotify to your room speakers. No virtual cable juggling, no Loopback gymnastics.
Why this gets in your way today.
One master volume kills the stream mix
Pulling down your music to hear teammates also drops your background music for viewers. The whole audience knows you just turned the bass off.
Virtual audio devices are a maze
Routing game audio to OBS while keeping Discord in your ears usually means BlackHole + Loopback + manual menu-bar fiddling every stream.
Notifications crash the broadcast
A Slack ping at the wrong moment goes out to your audience along with your reaction shot.
How mactooloud handles it.
Per-app device routing
Drag each app to the device it should play on. Game audio → OBS, Discord → headphones, Spotify → room speakers. No driver-level audio plumbing required.
Whisper Mode
Pre-stream check: tap your Whisper hotkey to silence everything except the game while you set up scenes.
Audio profiles
Save a Streaming profile and a Recording profile. Hotkey between them — every slider and route restored in one click.
Browser tab drill-down
Chrome hides what's making sound. mactooloud surfaces the exact tab so you can mute that one ad without killing your music.
Route each app to its own output.
Game audio to your encoder, voice chat to your in-ears, music to your room speakers — no virtual cables, no Loopback rituals.
