Topic: OSX Accessibility > Audio > Play Stereo Audio as Mono behaves oddly.

Hi all,

I'm on OSX 10.14.6 + Babyface and have had ear problems lately that have me switching the computer to mono regularly. If I go to Accessibility > Audio > Play Stereo Audio as Mono it appears to just shift the stereo field a bit to the left instead of making it mono.

Is this a known bug?

thanks,
Matthew

p.s. I know I can mono things in TotalMix but I need to switch for all drivers at once.

It's a known bug in Mac OS, that setting has never really worked as far as I have seen.

In any event, not something that RME can fix on our side.

Seems to fold to mono fine through the built-in driver/headphones, though as I said my ears are a bit censored right now.
