Audio routing not recalling properly
Hi Phillipe
I am running Millumin on a Macbook with a Behringer UMC 404HD that has 4 audio outputs.
The Main two outputs run the primary audio output to my front of house PA System - outputs 3 and 4 send sound effects to speakers at the rear of the audience to create a kind of surround sound effect.
One thing that's very frustrating is that often when I launch the program, with the UMC 404 connected - The software just defaults to Macbook speakers for the main output.
I go into the Mac Preferences and re select the UMC 404 - The primary audio then goes to outputs 1 and 2 - but the surround effects remain routed to macbook speakers.
I then have to go into EACH effect cue and select the audio routing and set it for the UMC 404 - I have a lot of cues and this takes ages. I wanted to select them all and change then simultaneously, but unfortunately Millumin won't let me do it, as soon as I select more than one cue the option to change the audio routing disappears.
Is it possible to update the software so that it always returns the correct (saved) settings that will route the audio to where it was set?
Could you also update, so that choosing multiple cues allows you to route them all to a selected audio output?
Merci
Tony

It would also be great to have the option to set audio routing per-layer, instead of only per-media. This would save a lot of programming time.
Hi Ectoplasmosis
Agreed - as all my effects media are on their own layer
Hello @TonyMoore,
If Millumin does not find the audio interface when loading a project, it asks you to replace it with another audio interface available on your computer. But if your audio device is available, you should not reassign your audio device for your audio routing : if you are in this case, please send us an email so we could open a ticket, exchange files, ask you sensitive information, ect ... Thank you.
For info, you can use "audio layout" to share your audio routing with several media. See this article.
We're studying the idea to set the audio-routing at layer level, but nothing sure for now.

I have also experienced media items losing their audio interface assignments upon launching an existing projects; no prompt asking to select a new interface. I think it may be an intermittent bug.
We would also greatly appreciate the ability to set audio routing per-layer, as well as per-media. This would save a lot of time during programming audio-heavy shows. Many thanks.
Hello @ectoplasmosis,
We are not aware of such an issue, but if this happens, please send us an email so we could open a ticket, exchange files, ask you sensitive information, ect ... Thank you.
