Luna & FarPlay listening
-
Hello Folks, Question about using the Universal Audio Luna DAW.
Has anybody been able to listen to Luna outputs with FarPlay? Not sure how to get Luna playback on a channel in the FarPlay Mixer window, or any other way. Thank you if anyone can assist. Trying to do remote work and play tracks for people.
Using an iMac 27 on Ventura 13.7.8, with 2 UA Apollo x8p units. With Logic or ProTools this is easy. But with Luna (and/or it’s Console app) you can’t see the outputs to assign to FarPlay Input.
Have tried some 3rd party apps but haven’t had any luck. (blackhole, loopback, audio hijack, etc)

Hi there!
Thanks for your question. To send audio from Luna out to BlackHole, please try the following.
- Go to Luna > Settings….
-
In the Hardware tab, set Audio Device to Core Audio. In the Devices list, select the Apollo x8p you want to use (instead of my Scarlett 8i6 in the screenshot from my Mac below) and also BlackHole. Press Apply. Set Buffer Size to 32 (or 16, if available). If the Main Output setting is shown, set it to BlackHole > Output 1-2. Press Apply again.
- Then bring BlackHole’s audio into FarPlay using FarPlay’s Input Mixer as usual (skip the step in the video that sets the Mac’s system output to BlackHole).
The key is that when Luna’s Audio Device is “Apollo mode”, Luna isn’t visible to Core Audio (Mac audio) devices like BlackHole. To let BlackHole receive audio from Luna, set Luna’s audio device to “Core Audio mode” instead.
Thank you,
