Open up the Windows Sound settings, either by searching “Sound Settings” or right-clicking the -icon in the system tray and selecting Open Sound Settings.

You will need to set the default output (playback) device in Windows to one of the installed VAC and by doing so you will not hear anything that is playing on your computer, this will be restored in the next step. After installation, make sure you have restarted your computer before proceeding as this is required. If you have not done so yet, please download the first VAC for free from VB-Audio. Start this set up by having a VAC installed. For example, you are connected with a VOIP application so you can hear your moderators and/or friends but do not want to have them heard on stream. Is there any way to selectively monitor individual audio inputs in Man圜am? It would be great to have a solution in Man圜am for the issue.This guide will walk you through a simple audio set up utilizing only a single virtual audio cable (abbreviated VAC) so you can hear more than the stream will hear. This is great since it lets me hear the “sound effects” line like listeners to my Man圜am audio stream. Virtual Audio Cable has a utility for repeating the vCable audio to another output. This is disconcerting to hear my own voice as I’m talking I can turn on “Audio Monitoring” in Man圜am but that reflects ALL audio sources, including my mic. That means, the audio feed from that vCable is silent since it goes into the vCable and then out Man圜am to the client app. But freebies like VB-Audio are pretty basic and will route audio from apps into the virtual line and nothing else.

Just need audio from specific apps.īoth work fine and can be assigned in Man圜am as an audio source. Trying to potentially use some sound effects in the audio stream of Man圜am and I don’t want the entire “system sounds” being directed into Man圜am. I’ve been playing around with a couple of virtual audio cable drivers VB-Audio (single channel free) and Virtual Audio Cable (pay). I doubt this is possible currently so this is probably a feature request but here goes…

Super simple virtual audio cable setup
