    This video is really helpful! I finally gotten around to setting this up after having a Beacn Mix Create for a few months now. I was thinking that you had to use VoiceMeter with this, but that is not the case! This really helps! Thanks so much!!!

    Can you use the Beacn mix to do this as well or is it only the mix create that will work for this?

    • @beacn
      @beacn  2 роки тому +1

      Because BEACN Mix does not create any additional devices or have a driver, it will not use the same tools that BEACN Mic and BEACN Mix Create use for 2 PC setups. While it can work within an existing 2 PC setup, it cannot be the tool you used to route.

    • @beacn
      @beacn  Рік тому

      You don't *have* to use the ground loop isolators (GLI), but in most cases they will help. Whenever you're connecting 2 analog devices to the same electrical ground, the opportunity for static and noise is high. Ground loop isolators remove this noise in almost all cases.
