@JesseEvansce@jamesm Swap speakers mid-song without a gap, and Tutti aligns each output's latency so they stay in sync — the multi-device case Aggregate Device makes painful. No one can rewrite CoreAudio, and I'm not pretending to; Tutti just makes it effortless. Free trial if curious.
macOS still only plays audio through one output at a time. 🙃
So I built Tutti: tick any combo of speakers, AirPods, and displays in your menu bar → same sound everywhere, in sync. With real volume + mute per device.

@JesseEvansce@jamesm Fair points. SoundSource and Finetune are genuinely great at per-app volume and EQ on a single output — Tutti isn't trying to redo that. Its focus is the opposite end: playing one sound across several speakers at once (Mac + headphones + display…).
@johnlpollard Glad to hear that, John! Fixing that sync delay was exactly why I built Tutti, so it's awesome to know it's finally helping you dial in that perfect bass setup.
@ericlitman@nwcarlson Thanks for the feedback, Eric! I've added full to my development roadmap. I know how frustrating the official Mac app can be, so I’m working on making Tutti the smooth, reliable alternative you're looking for.
@berkaythunicorn Multiple Bluetooth speakers — yes, that's exactly what Tutti does (synced, no echo).
HomePod + Bluetooth at once is a macOS limit, not Tutti's: it won't merge AirPlay + Bluetooth into one output. HomePod on its own works great.

Genuinely didn't expect this thread to take off like it did today — thank you all 🙏
Tutti's live on Product Hunt right now if you'd like to follow the launch or leave feedback (which I read all of):

@vahram_sf@Setapp Wallpaper's this one — the macOS Golden Gate by Basic Apple Guy: https://t.co/R171GLKQfw
Setapp: considering it! It'd be a nice fit — just weighing it against the one-time $7.99 (no subscription) model. Noted, thanks for asking 🙏
@_kevindorsey Airfoil's a classic — Rogue Amoeba do great work. Main difference is Tutti runs entirely on Apple's own frameworks, so there's no driver/component installed and it fully cleans up when you quit. And thank you — the UI's the part I sweated over most 🙏
@Ferenc2017 Yeah — iOS locks audio down way harder than macOS; there's no per-app audio access for third-party apps, so this sadly isn't buildable there. Same thing that bugs me. (The iPhone app that's coming is a remote for the Mac, not this — wish I could 🥲)
@nwcarlson Straight answer: if Sonos only shows up over AirPlay, Tutti can't reliably fold it into the simultaneous group yet — same AirPlay limitation macOS imposes on apps — and it wouldn't remove AirPlay's inherent lag either. So I can't honestly say it beats that today.
@WayneAinsworth Studio Display's speakers — yes. HomePod's the honest catch: it only comes in over AirPlay, and macOS won't let an app hold an AirPlay device inside a multi-output group reliably yet, so HomePod + Studio Display *at the same time* isn't supported today.
@lileshjadav Fair — it's a niche, which is exactly why most of the app is free. The Multi-Output Device does work; it just has no volume/mute and clutters your device list. Tutti's really about making that part usable. Appreciate you saying the problem's real 🙏
@c22_dev Love this — I want it too. Catch is macOS gives apps no public way to flip AirPods ANC/Transparency (it's Control-Center-only), and Tutti's deliberately no-private-API / no-driver. The day Apple opens it up it's an instant add. Noting it 🙏
