Hi Fede and IOhannes, Thanks so much for the quick responses. If I understand you correctly, Fede, I should *not* have DSP switched on at creation in the subprocess, but first set its audio API to portaudio, then switch DSP on? I tried that, and still get no sound output.
Also, when (in the subprocess) I select ‘portaudio’ for the API, the Audio Settings dialog pops open with my audio interface showing as the input and output devices – shouldn’t these be ‘virtual’ devices that only connect in-from and out-to the parent process? IOhannes: I’ve made sure to have dsp switched on in both the parent and sub-process. Could you tell me what your audio API and Audio Settings show for the sub-process? This is Pd 0.53.1, I should note.

You might need to re-select your audio device from the Media menu before turning DSP on. I believe that in macos it would be Media > portaudio, unless you are using jack. I am not sure why this error happens, but I guess it relates to the pd~ subprocess changing the saved settings. Hope this helps, Fede On Sat, Jan 28, 2023 at 10:30 PM Phil Stone <pksmu...@gmail.com<mailto:pksmu...@gmail.com>> wrote: I see this same behavior with the pd~-help patch (‘unknown audio API specified’ message, and no audio output), so that rules out my synthesizer’s contribution. Could somebody please verify that they can get audio output from the subprocess in the pd~-help.pd patch? I’m on a M1 Mac, if that’s relevant.

Am I doing something wrong?
