core audio setup OR apple sound preference?

[Saar]

Hello to all digiusers!

in OS9, switching the sound output to digidesign hardware in the sound control panel made every sound come out of my digi001, multi client and all (it's a soundmanager thing, not a digidesign feature).

now, in osx, i understand that the core audio is not multi client. if i choose digidesign hardware in the apple sound preference panel, why is there also a "supported application" feature in the core audio setup? doesn't changing the output in apple sound to digidesign hardwrae already routes EVERYTHING to my digi001 instead of the built in speaker? it seems like double aquisition of the hardware

i'll try to remove all of the application from the supported application list - maybe then "apple sound" will be the only client and by definition - every sound from the computer (without launching Protools, of course) will be heard through the digi?

damm - all i want is to hear itunes and quicktime player at the same time!

any ideas?
