Quick reference: alternatives and handy tips

• For a free, open-source virtual audio driver on macOS, consider BlackHole as a reliable option.
• If you want more polished commercial tools with additional features (but at a cost), look into Rogue Amoeba’s Loopback or Audio Hijack.
• Tip: when using multiple apps, create named routings and save presets early—this speeds recall between projects and prevents routing mistakes.
