One of my favorite “set it-and-forget-it pieces of software, SoundSource by Rogue Amoeba was disabled in Snow Leopard. We were now faced with opt-clicking on the volume button to get different output selections. This was like driving a ferrari and suddenly finding yourself in a renault. It worked and got you places, but wasn’t any fun anymore. Now i can split system sounds to computer speakers and music to my headphones, etc… I assumed, incorrectly, since Sound Source was free, it wouldn’t be updated. My Bad. This might not be new to some of you, but i just found out (and downloaded) the Snow Leopard version. Thanks Rogue Amoeba, i should have had more faith (especially since i own two other of your softwares, Airfoil (way cool!) and Audio Hijack Pro.

SOPHISTICATED SONIC SELECTION

SoundSource is a tiny application for Mac OS X enabling you to switch your audio input and output sources with a single click, and even adjust their volume settings.

New in 2.5:
SoundSource is now a stand-alone application, compatible with Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and requiring Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or higher.
