Farrago 2.1 Brings Over Two Dozen Improvements

We’ve just posted a free update to Farrago! Version 2.1 brings over two dozen enhancements and fixes to the Mac’s best soundboard app. Read on for more details, or just update immediately by selecting “Check for Update” in the Farrago menu.
Notable Updates

First up, for fans of automation, we’ve introduced several enhancements to Farrago’s Shortcuts support. It’s now possible to set the color of a sound using the “Set Sound Setting” shortcut, and the “Get Sound” and “Get Sound Set” shortcuts can now extract Sounds and Sound Sets directly from shortcut input. We’ve also added new properties to the “Sound” (“X Position”, “Y Position”, and “OSC Base Address”), and the “Sound Set” (“OSC Base Address”) types.

Farrago also offers the ability to get or set OSC values from a shortcut, which allows shortcuts to read a tile’s remaining time, set its playback position, and more. We’ve also made several updates to OSC support itself, with new paths for resetting List playback state and managing the playback mode setting for sets in List mode, as well as several bug fixes.

We’ve leveled up our accessibility too, with a handful of fixes and improvements for users operating Farrago via VoiceOver. A rare crash has been fixed, tooltips have been improved, and several rough edges have been sanded down.
There are many other small changes in Farrago 2.1. You can read all about them in the comprehensive release notes.
Preliminary MacOS 15 (Sequoia) Support

With this latest update, Farrago also joins Airfoil, Audio Hijack, Fission, and Piezo in offering preliminary support for MacOS 15 (Sequoia). The latest versions of all these apps no longer warn about the OS being unsupported when run on Sequoia. At this time, there are no known issues.
Do note that Apple’s OS betas remain in flux, and we always encourage users to stick with Apple’s official (non-beta) OS releases to avoid problems. If you’re already running Sequoia, however, just be sure you’ve got our latest versions.

Further Sequoia Updates Still to Come
At present, Loopback and SoundSource do not yet run on Sequoia. We’re still hard at work on updates for both of these apps, and we’ll have more there in the weeks ahead. Keep an eye on our official Status page for more soon.

Update (August 6, 2024)
Loopback 2.4.3 released today, offers preliminary support for Sequoia. A SoundSource update remains in the works. As before, keep an eye on our official Status page.
