Select Track Output - Mono Bus
I'm trying to use a macro to set the output of a track (or pair of tracks). It works fine for any stereo pair, but I can't seem to set up a mono output. My bus labelling is as follows:
This works to send the selected track(s) to the stereo "BASS Bus":
But neither of these are effective:
I've also tried using a default unnamed bus, with the same results where only the stereo bus can be selected. Am I barking up the wrong tree with this macro, or am I barking up the wrong tree trying to add the extra sub-menu in here?
The Error Message I get is as follows:

The reason this is happening is because technically the name of those busses have 4 spaces before them—or at least Soundflow needs to see them that way.
There is one catch though, the macro editor won't let you type in 4 spaces in a row. I've managed to find a way around that without having to get into scripting.
What you're going to do is type BASS (Mono), with four spaces added at the beginning, somewhere else (not in SoundFlow but somewhere like TextEdit or the Notes app), then you're going to copy and paste it into the Soundflow macro Output Path field where you would've originally just typed it out. This will allow you to get the four empty spaces and allow SoundFlow to find the mono bus.
Let me know if that makes sense.
Matthew Facca @Matthew_FaccaThat's it! You're the man, Raphael, Thanks!
