So, while I am settling back at home [sweet home], a new APE-based product has popped up. Originating from an already familiar company, Rogue Amoeba, a new tool called Detour is out (already at v1.0.1 while I was gone, woop!), featuring an ability to select sound output device on a per-application basis, and, most importantly, spiffy icon in orange color I adore so much.
In other words, it allows you to listen to music from iTunes on your SoundSticks while keeping these pesky Entourage sounds on the speaker in front of your Mac and individually control the volume of each application. Enough free advertising - I hope these militarized amoebas pay me soon for all my efforts. Heh.
More on my adventures later.

Detour looks cool, but if your speakers are connected to your audio out jack in the back of the Mac, then you cannot have it differentiate the speakers and the internal speaker on the front. It only works if you have your speakers connected via USB or something.
Posted by: Ken on July 9, 2003 2:10 PMYeah, that's kind of a shame that you can't differentiate between your built-in speakers and the sound-out jack. Even if it is a hardware issue, that's the only thing that would make this worthwhile to me; I see no point in wasting money on USB speakers.
Posted by: Reilly on July 9, 2003 2:41 PMExactly. I love my Cambridge Soundworks PC Works speakers. Fantastic sound from such small boxes. The Detour readme says that the audio out jack and the internal speaker share the same circuit or something like that. Shame, but it seems that it's beyond Audio Hijack's control.
