Hi Joseph~ I am using a Zoom H8 as the audio interface during my lessons with an older MacBook Pro as you know. My hope is to transition from using a wired open back headphone to using my AirPods Max wirelessly. The issue I am having is getting the AirPods to reliably connect with my MacBook. They always connect with something, though often it is my phone, iPad, Apple TV… maybe my neighbors phone for all I know 😊. Your AirPods seem to connect automatically and immediately when you switch between speakers and headphones. Maybe you or someone else has a suggestion for managing Bluetooth connections. Thank you!
