The following is very advanced, and the only benefit it brings is you being able to talk over Skype while you play music. If you set up your VAC like you explained here, you will have to mute skype (so you can't talk over it anymore) in intermissions when you play music. This works, but I don't know how others do it, but we are using VAC to be able to disable Skype on the stream to play music.

VAC does cost a bit of money ($25-50), but it's a fantastic piece of software and definitely worth the price, especially for those who don't have a mixing desk or other fancy audio hardware. You can either enable that, or simply type +voicerecord in console at the start of every game.Įt voila! As long as you are in a broadcaster slot, your listeners will be able to enjoy both your own casting along with your delightful co-caster's at the same time :) might have changed it to VAC1, in which case you will be feeding your co-caster's audio back to him via Skype along with your own voice, which is incredibly annoying :))ĭota 2 has an open mic feature, but it seems to be a bit unreliable. Make sure the recording device is still set to your microphone (step D.1. In Skype Audio settings, change your default playback device to VAC 2.
#Virtual audio cable skype setup windows#
In Steam Audio settings, change your default microphone device to VAC 1 (this may require you to change the default windows device after you save the changes you can set your windows microphone default back to the real device). One last step! You have some working audio cables, but Skype/Steam aren't using them. If you get any errors when trying to start the instances (I did at this point), go to your recording/playback devices in windows and make sure to turn off all "Enhancements" (you should be able to turn them back on after the audio repeaters are running)ĭ. After setting up all 3 instances, click "Start" on each. In instance #3, set Wave In = Microphone and Wave Out = VAC1 In instance #2, set Wave In = VAC 2 and Wave Out = Virtual Audio Cable 1 aka VAC1 (should be labelled something like "Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)")
In instance #1 of audio repeater, set Wave In = Virtual Audio Cable 2 aka VAC2 (should be labelled something like "Line 2 (Virtual Audio Cable)") and Wave Out = your primary listening device (whatever your speakers/Headphones/etc are connected to) We'll be using the following settings for all three (again, credits to Destiny's guide and thanks to him for providing these):Ĭhannel config should probably be Stereo. You now have a properly configured pair of virtual audio cables, but you're not done yet because there is no audio being sent through/transmitted by them! Now you need to open 3 copies of Audio Repeater (audiorepeater.exe). After this, you should be done with the control panel. Of these three, only check the “Line” box. Under “Connected source lines”, there are three boxes. Again, this is fairly complicated, just set it to Cable range. “Stream fmt” has to do with stream format limiting. “Ms per int” is the number of milliseconds per interrupt, it has to do with sound latency. Just set this to 20, explaining it is somewhat complicated and even I don’t fully understand it. “Max inst” is where you set the maximum number of pin instances. NC is the maximum number of channels allowed, set this between 1 and 2. This specifies the range of sampling rates allowed for the virtual audio cable.īPS is theminimum/maximum bit samples allowed for the cable.
You want the minimum/maximum settings to be 4410. Under “Cable parameters”, SR is your sampling rate. You’ll want to set it to 2 cables, then press “Set”. Under “Drive parameters”, we have Cables. Once open, you’ll see a number of different, configurable options.
Open the VAC control panel (vcctlpan.exe), and follow these instructions from Destiny's guide:Īfter installing VAC, open up vcctlpan.exe in whatever folder you installed VAC in.

Install Virtual Audio Cable - aka VAC (requires purchase to remove audio watermark see )ī. Here's what you need to do to make it happen (big thanks to ROOT Destiny for his invaluable guide which helped me figure this out: ):Ī. Hi guys, I've had a few requests asking how I'm streaming myself and GoDz in the same audio channel in Dota 2 for the TI2 qualifiers.
