Apple Computer Audio Output Disabled

clear sound output from computer to audio mixer.

Love the big screen. Wish it had an audio output, but those days are gone. It's Apple. Done right.

Used to sum the stereo output of an Apple TV (Optical Audio to Analog converter PodDI to a Mono Mixer. The podDI works great the the Ground loop switch makes it crystal clear!

This item works flawlessly with an Apple TV 4k to output audio to a Sonos Beam using the Sonos optical adapter. I had to return a cheaper unit to Amazon because it caused flickering and video would drop out. This one did the trick and seems to have no issues.

Needed a way to boost audio output from a mixing board going to a computer which we use to stream church services with. The 24c worked perfectly.

I use this Y-cable for connecting two audio cords (from my desktop speakers) to my computer which only has one stereo output. It is great and I have not found any flaws. I will see how it will hold up in the long run.

It does exactly what I need. I have a high end stereo receiver and speakers connected to my iMac computer analog audio output (headphone) jack. The receiver also is connected to several other analog audio sources. I have had persistent issues with hum in the audio from the computer. I tried all sorts of things, floating grounds, reversing plugs etc and nothing worked. putting the HE-18 in line with the computer completely eliminated the hum with no adverse side effects to the audio quality. I really appreciate the flexibility of all the various input and output connections. I now have a convenient extra port where I can plug in headphones for private listening when needed. (Unlike the idiots at Apple who put the headphone jack on the back of the iMac. What were they thinking?) The engineer who designed the HE18 deserves a lot of credit. He really did his homework.

Bought this display to accompany my ASUS laptop computer. Like the multiple connections and ease of operation so far. I eventually used the DVI port as this has solved a monitor dropout problem I was having when I engaged the usb audio out from laptop to a DAC. I also connected the laptop's audio output jack to the ProArt display so it too could have sound output if I choose. Now considering upgrading to an ASUS tower computer.

I'm using this mainly to get high quality audio output from my computer to my high-end stereo. Overall, the sound is excellent. Especially the clarity and detail in the high end. The bass is just slightly less tight than the output from my CD player, but quite acceptable. I suspect even that would not be an issue with the balanced outputs. Connecting two Rode NT1A large condenser mics in a stereo pair results in a very high quality recording with a low noise floor, as you might expect from a company like SSL. You can also record one mic for vocals and a direct input from a guitar. Supposedly the channel 3/4 output lets you create a custom headphone mix when doing multitrack recording. I couldn't see how to do that in the DAW software I'm using (Audacity on Windows).

This computer is perfect and super fast for pro audio projects. I'm using Apple's Logic Pro for audio projects so perhaps that explains why it runs smoothly along with the Apple-branded computer. Regardless, I would highly recommend this for Logic Pro users. I cannot speak for other audio program users.
