I am completely baffled! As are Apple support and Apogee support. However if I set the output as Ensemble, Soundflower (2ch) input displays multiple inputs including 8 Optical channels (Mirroring the Ensemble output) when Built-In Output is selected for Output, and Soundflower (2ch) is selected for input - it shows 2 available channels for Soundflower (2ch) input and the same for the Built-In Output. Interestingly - the GUI of the input seems to change to match that of the output. But I can still hear the microphone and I can still see an input and output level on the meter for the microphone. And both the input and output meters in AU Lab show no level.

However if I set the Output of AU Lab to Ensemble I can no longer hear iTunes. HEC-4>iRiver iHP-120 + Studio Projects C4s>BM2P+ Edirol UA-5>Sony PCM-M1.

I can hear iTunes through the computer's built in speakers. Pro > Soundflower v1.5.2 > Audacity v1.3.12b 24-Bit/44.1 kHz Master. In AU Lab I then choose Soundflower (2ch) as input, and Built-In Output for Output. If in System Preferences -> Sound - I select Soundflower (2ch) as my output device. With a microphone plugged in, I can hear the microphone through Ensemble and see the level input and output in AU Lab. System Preferences -> Sound - Ensemble selected as Output device - I hear iTunes through speakers as expected. However I'm hearing no sound and not seeing any level on the input or output of AU Lab when I do this.

I am trying to route sound from my computer (iTunes, Spotify, DAW etc) through AU Lab using Soundflower before reaching my Apogee Ensemble interface. I'm having trouble using AU Lab in conjunction with Soundflower and my Apogee Ensemble firewire sound interface.
