Hi everyone,
I'm looking for a way to programmatically set the left/right audio balance to perfect center (50/50) using either a Terminal command or AppleScript.
Background: The audio balance slider in System Settings > Sound > Output & Input works functionally, but I have difficulty determining when it's positioned at the exact center point. The visual nature of the slider makes it challenging for me to achieve the precision I need, and I end up adjusting it repeatedly trying to get it perfectly centered.
What I'm looking for:
- A Terminal command that can set the audio balance to exact center
- An AppleScript that accomplishes the same thing
- Any other programmatic method to ensure perfect 50/50 balance
I've tried searching through the defaults command documentation and Core Audio frameworks but haven't found the right approach yet. Has anyone successfully automated this setting before?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance, Dylan
