The facts

Only Apple's Music and TV apps can AirPlay to multiple speakers from a Mac. Audiout does it for everything the Mac plays — Spotify, the browser, a game — on AirPlay, Bluetooth and Chromecast speakers together, in sync, with a fader per room and per app.

In 30 words

Audiout plays everything a Mac plays — Spotify, the browser, games — on every AirPlay, Bluetooth and Chromecast speaker in the house, in sync, with a fader per room and per app.

In 120 words

On a Mac, only Apple's own Music and TV apps can send audio to more than one AirPlay speaker. Everything else — Spotify, YouTube, a game — reaches one output at a time. Audiout removes that limit. It sits in the menu bar as a mixer for the house: pick any set of AirPlay, Bluetooth or Chromecast speakers and everything the Mac plays comes out of all of them in sync. Each room gets a fader, each app can be routed and leveled on its own (music to the kitchen, the call stays on the Mac), scenes save speaker sets for one-click recall, and each speaker has a ten-band equalizer. €24.99 once, no subscription. The source is public on GitHub under GPL-2.0.
