Direct, straight to the point and super easy to understand explanation! Amazing work, man!
This is amazing~!! youre the best! so funny and clear and easy to understand. just love your energy, thank you so much for this video
You should do a full series on Voicemeeter setups for various things.
thank you soooo much, jesus i was losing my mind trying to figure this out. super helpful.
Voicemeeter AUX output does not show up in my input
"Voicemeeter AUX output" is now called "Voicemeeter Out B2"
@@luke-qk9dg thanks
Yo same
Thank you it really helped me so much
I love that you can route music players into mic feed ;p
ngl i wish there was more content like this out there. anything on voicemeeter is usually like bare bones banana and i committed to potato along time ago cause i use it for both streaming and to broadcast music while in vr. and they did updates to both obs and vr and i couldnt for the life of me figure out how to fix it because i only barebones understood what the hell was going on in banana (which they also updated). honestly after watching this i feel like i actually understand the software now. why it works the way it works & for people who learn that way, dude thats such a huge thing. so thanks . forsure deserves more attention. ♥
Aww thanks Dzoe!
What always makes sense in my head doesn't always for others (my comment section is proof of that 😂)
Glad this as helpful and thank you for watching!
finally one video very good about voicemeeter Mic. thanks for support man. Glod Bless u
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks!! I wanted to use my DJ controller(ASIO windows driver) as an external soundcard and had no success until watching this video.
Glad I could help!
I know this is a bit old, but I had a question if you or anyone knows. When you're changing the default input/output in sound settings, I don't have a voicemeeter aux option for input. I had my mic, cable output, and voicemeeter out A1-A5 and B1-B3
same here
Google "Voicemeeter New VAIO driver (2024 Update)". Should fix that for ya.
I bought it and it bothered me a lot choosing input and output, and I heard the sound with distortion
Can you provide me with remote technical support through Anydesk software even if it is paid?
PLEASE HELP!!! at 6:30 you say to change your output device to Voicemeeter Input but if I change it to anything other than my Logitech headphones I lose sound so I cant hear anything.
i got reverb on both Mp3 + Mic , is it possible to make reverb only for the Mic ?
I'm tryna figure out how will I be able to integrate or route my mic to Krisp into this setup tho. :( Thanks for this.
thank you !
No problem! Glad I could help
thank you
Just downloaded this so I'm brand new to it. This is perhaps a stupid question, but why does nobody seem to use the VAIO3 input for anything? Also, are there any solid rules/reasons for choosing VAIO, Aux, or VAIO3 for whatever you're trying to put through? What is the difference between these three inputs under the hood?
Hi Pookoos, not a stupid question at all! I can answer these.
These are set in stone regarding what they're tied to, just how VoiceMeeter assigns specific audio functions windows uses:
VAIO = Desktop audio (B1) - Directly linked to VOICEMEETER INPUT
AUX = Represents your Mic (B2) - Directly linked VOICEMEETER AUX OUTPUT
VAIO = Just another virtual audio device. Can be selected to send audio to by selecting B3 and then monitor the audio by selecting A1. Its purpose isnt as defined as VAIO or AUX OUTPUT and can be used almost like another hardware input....if that makes sense.
I have another video im working on that does a dual pc setup using VoiceMeeter, but also does a light overview of the mixer. Hope this helps!
For the life of me i cant get rid of the delay in voice meeter can you please make a video if theres a fix for it
So I'm curious. If you set the system default input and output settings correctly, why do you need to also specify them within a game that you're playing? Is there a benefit to being that specific?
It's not mandatory, in my years using voicemeeter I've come across some games (looking at you Call of Duty).....that don't recognize my windows default settings.
As long as you have everything routed correctly it SHOULD work flawlessly. But windows sometimes likes to play games
@@dweebhubtutorials4893 Totally hear you there. Thanks for the great tutorial. Even at like 50% of the video length, the information is clearer and more useful than a bunch of other tutorials I have found before. I am happy now, and don't need to find another :)
When i try do download it it just doesnt download any help?
Whenever I download the voice meter it doesn't show up anywhere
why doesnt it show the install file, it only shows download for me
Quick question: I followed this to a T, but I still can't get my mic to go through the aux portion. Do you know of any thing that could cause this?
Hi Enervated, firstly just confirm the A2 bubbles are checked on both the channel the mic is hooked into. Then check the A2 button is selected in the Voicemeeter Aux output.
If they both have those bubbles selected, then check your sample rates (44khz or 48khz). You want them matching across the board.
Next check your windows sound panel, see if windows switched audio devices. (windows updates and VM tend to not play nice together).
Jesus christ i was pulling my hair out
Thanks!
No problem! Glad I was able to help. =)
bro for me is launch like normal version no potato .. how to fix this
?
Hit the windows key and search "voicemeeter". It installs all 3 programs regardless
The way you've described it though... what's the point? Just select your microphone in any program. I thought the power of VM was that you can combine and split audio sources so as to create different audio channels. E.g., you want to hear discord, but don't want your stream to hear discord.
Hello Ryan, I get what you're saying. The purpose of this video was purely to show someone how to initially setup VM.
I included the mic piece, so at minimum, they could chat in Discord or their game of choice.
VM can do so much more and I plan on making more videos on Dual PC setups, connecting discord, VBAN...... Just not enough time in the day! I appreciate you watching =)
i followed all the steps in the beginning to a T but it keeps dowloading the standard version rather than the potato version (I know for sure im downloading the potato version)
nvm im dumb
how can I get rid of the pop up that comes up everytime I open it?
That is their pay for it pop up you can click the pay button and pay the 10 dollars and it gets rid of it.
WHERE IS THE LINKKK]
This... doesn't sound right. I've been using Voicemeeter potato for years and came to learn about more of the in-depth details, but B1 is not your default Output device, it's your default Input device, and B2 is your secondary input device, just as B3 is your tertiary input device, which lots of people do have a use for, it's kinda limiting for a tutorial to tell you to never use.
A1 is your default output device, A2 secondary output etc.
Maybe I'm just majorly misinterpreting what this video is saying but it seems false.
Edit: So I think I've figured out what's going on, you're redirecting your AUX Input to your AUX output, then setting your AUX output to be your microphone, which you do not need to do.
For instance, in my Voicemeeter, I have my Default (VAIO) as my general default output, so any software will by default go to that, same as you. I have my second output (AUX) set to Discord, so that I can manually change the volume of discord and other media independently, I then have my third (VAIO 3) set to my music player, so I can control the volume of that independently too. I have all 3 of those set to A1 for my headphones, with the option to enable A2 which I have set to my speakers. I do not have *any* B numbers enabled on any of those 3, as all 3 are going to my ears so I don't need to enable microphone inputs.
in the left panels, I have 1 in use, my microphone, I have all the As disabled and I have only B1 enabled on it, because I know that B1 refers to the default Input (VAIO), so I can set Voicemeeter Input VAIO as my default input and it will be my microphone, with the benefit of being able to adjust volumes and add EQ, there is no need to route it through the outputs.
Thank you for the long response Fishum!
I'm no audio expert, just trying to help folks get VoiceMeeter setup for their first time. I've explained it in a way that makes sense to me the best. After watching a couple other videos on the same topic, everyone does it differently. Glad you got it setup in a way that works best for you!
Happy streaming!
Clear as mud
Sorry this setup didn't work for ya!
Been working fine for me for a couple years now, works great once you get it up and running. Good luck!
having a echo issue with people who talk ingame currently. cant figure it out for the life of me
Check what channels your u have A1 selected.
Something is duplicating your desktop audio.
Why doesn't mine look like that it looks like a smaller version with not as much things
You probably opened up the normal voicemeeter. Hit the windows button type voicemeeter, it should display all versions. If not find the install folder...should be in there too.
If you install one version, it installs all 3 by default.
@@dweebhubtutorials4893 i typed it in and it only showed one version and i already installed potato
You could always try re-installing it, don't see why it wouldn't install Potato. Did you try the installation folder? Should be in: C:\Program Files (x86)\VB\Voicemeeter
whats up kiddos? lmao ookie dokie
Help me please my microphone interrupts, what to do about it?
Hi King, what do you mean it interrupts?
@@dweebhubtutorials4893 I mean, I say a word, and some strange sound comes out, like a rattle
Known bug there are a couple of potential fixes on the reddit
No longer donorware and they are asking for $35 for it. Pretty steep in my opinion if I'm only trying to route haptics from MS Flight simulator. Not worth it, unless I had multiple uses for the software.
100% incorrect.
Just checked, once it's in a cart you can select the "I'm a fan" option.
$10 per license =)
@@dweebhubtutorials4893 good to know
my voicemeeter doesnt look like that
There is a Banana and Potato version
Maybe I'm just dumb
You're doing it wrong
What did he do??
@@feardaron1240 this setup will work it's just not using all of voicemeeters potential
Normally we ask if they even watched the whole video when missing the point.....here I'd ask if he even read the thumbnail. @@feardaron1240
@@youareafruitcake3 I agree this video still makes more sense on how to use it
