Separating audio in OBS isn't hard. But you know what is hard? Making those god damn graphics. Good lord that took me too long. Never make me do that again. Tell all your friends about me so I feel like it was worth my time even though we all know it wasn't.
Been using this setup for a few months and I just want to say, thank you so much for this! Been able to watch streams and listen to music while recording. Makes it all so much better haha, youre a legend!
I think the biggest irony in this is that what encouraged me to try this out was me wanting to be able to do stuff like watch youtube and listen to music while recording, but specifically I thought about it while watching one of your videos because you mentioned listening to music a couple times lmao
As a visual person, I am thankful. My friend kept explaining this to me over and over and I just could not understand. And then he called me a boomer and I got sad. This is why I am here.
I seriously appreciate the minute detail and breaking down of concepts at the "kindergarten" level because this helps me have a better understanding of how the system works overall. Short and quick format is nice in a pinch, but if you're trying to tinker and learn, these long form tutorials are the best. You earned a sub my man!
IF YOU ARE STRUGGLING WITH THIS ISSUE WATCH THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was hesitant to watch cuz i wanted something fast (lame i know its only 14 minutes) but this guy GETS YOU THERE. I was struggling for 3 hours yesterday watching other videos that even appeared higher on YT than this one and man what a waste of time. THANK YOU DUDE. everything works as it should i could cry happy tears :' )
I know this is kind of an old video but dude I have to tell you how much I appreciate this video. Just the whole tone of ‘hey I know this looks confusing - like wtf is all this, right?- but I’m gonna talk you through it’ was REALLY what I needed! So yeah, tysm for taking the time to make this for dummies like me 😅
This can be so frustrating to set up to the point of tears, and legit your calm voice makes it easier to not have a fuckin' meltdown setting this shit up. Thanks for the help and just being cool
oh my gods dude ive been trying to split my audio for four hours now and im way over my bed time but your video is the one that finally made the difference and helped me succeeding in splitting it! thank you so much!!!
I cant believe this actually works so smoothly, thank you! I was scratching my head wondering how the heck do i stream on Twitch, but not have my discord chat audio be broadcasting on Twitch via OBS. With this, i can control it all so easily :)
"You just got pranked sonnn" Voicemeeter is incredibly intuitive once you understand it. I use banana on my gaming pc and potato on my streaming pc. Works like a charm.
Having watched several voicemeter setup videos, I must say this is the ONLY one that made any sense. I installed voicemeter 6months ago and uninstalled because I didn't know shit... Today i setup in less than 15m, even fudging around with virtual cables and shit. Cheers Nutty
I started using Voicemeter about a year ago now. This was by far the most useful tutorial of VM that I've used. I still come back to it a year later just to refresh myself whenever some setting messes up or I change my audio hardware around. Thanks for such a simple and somewhat entertaining tutorial video.
I have been scratching my head at separating my desktop audios sources for a while now. A freind recommended Voicemeeter but when I was tyring to figure it out with some written tutorial info and a video or two things weren't working for me at all. You have no only helped explain this in a helpful way, you even helped to point out other sources that I may or may not want to have sectioned out from my streaming and heard audio outputs. Thank you. I did have to go with a different output codec because something was cause the codec you picked to create a choppy quality in my sound, but switch to a different audio codec for the same output source did the trick for me. Thank you for taking the time to explain this in a helpful and thoughtful way. Even if it wasn't a "funny" video, it was extremely helpful.
Just a heads up, if anyone's headset sound sounds garbly when you choose WDM, just switch to MME instead or try a different driver. Its an easily fixable issue, that might not necessarily be super obvious.
That helped, but every so often I still hear the cracking from my Spotify app. So, I decided to just route it to the VB input and add it as a separate audio channel for now until I can do more tweaking in the future.
Some of the presented concepts were kinda mind-bending since I'm no Lucas Studio audio tech. But after a couple rewind-listens, I now get it! Thanks Nutty!
Thank you so much for this video. I watched this video years ago when I first got VMB. I had uninstalled it but now I have a use for it again. There are SO many tutorials out there, BUT... When I decided to get VMB again, I was like "I need that video that I watched a few years ago to help me go step by step to set it up again" low and behold, you were 2 videos down. So, once again, I'd like to say THANK YOU for making a tutorial that is SO easy to follow along with!
The best explination! I watched a dozen other videos and still didn't have a clue what was going on. The other videos just did the whole, click here and here and here business and I didn't learn a thing. Now I understand the fundamentals I can setup this on my own in the future without having to rewatch a speedrun tutorial! :)
You never fail to be nonchalantly real with your viewers and I appreciate it every single time. No I am not a scientist and that audio board would’ve made me lose my mind if I hadn’t come across your tutorial. Thank you!
This is definitely helpful! I've started streaming recently and, sometimes, I listen to music or audiobooks while gaming, but if I wanted to make a highlights reel of my Twitch recordings on RUclips, I wouldn't want to get copyright-struck because of my choice of listening entertainment. I downloaded Voicemeeter today and I find it quite awesome-- my viewers can listen to the in-game music while I listen to ... 50 Shades, I guess. Thanks for the video!
You are a god ! i'm a small streamer, and when I'm gaming even alone, I like having a RUclips Video playing background, and when i'm streaming and there is silence moment and all it's pretty diffucult for me, so having a youtube video on the side gonna help me a lot, thank you so much for this turorial !
Man I just want you to know that I've watched tons of these videos and I just didn't get it but you explained it in the best way I could understand. You earned a new sub.
I feel like they should release an "overly simplified" version of this software, where it lists your input devices on one side, output on the other side, and has a "visual graph" interface, like what Unity has for its shaders. Just drag a line from your input to your output, and the line between those 2 devices can have a right-click property box to control the effects. It's cleaner, and less daunting this way.
honestly this has been so confusing for me and im sure u have a great idea, but i could read this comment another 25 times and still have absolutely no idea what the hell u are talking about. lol. this is the second time ive took on this task of setting up voicemeeter and although im still a little lost. this video helped me understand alot more than any of the others
omg dude. i learned so much from this video alone, that I feel like i have a PhD in voice meeter banana now. thank you for painting the picture for me so clearly and vividly.
watching this as an audio engineer is kinda funny lol. You have the best explanation from a consumer standpoint though, it's hard to explain audio vsts and how they work to non-audiophiles (its like rocket science at first glance). Keep up the great work man, you're always inspiring me! P.S. the music industry DOES in-fact still use tape machines, albeit digital emulations rather than hardware in 2021, but they've still been used on some of the biggest records of the last decade! ;)
yes for someone like me it truly did seem like rocket science at first. i watched at least 2 videos before this and was lost. he did a great job of really explaining things to somenone with absolutely no knowledge of this
Wait.... That makes no sense lol. If you're an audio engineer then you've for sure been using DAW's which make voicemeeter seem simplistic in comparison
This was super helpful to me, been trying to properly figure out voicemeeter and half the tutorials I found were just "here's how you install voicemeeter, and you just change your outputs and inputs: without actually showing how to do it.
Thanks for the video! Although in the end I got much better control over audio by purchasing the standalone virtual cables and only using them and not using voicemeter at all. 1. Route Game & Music to audio cable A & B 2. Monitor both audio cables A & B in windows settings (So I can hear them) 3. Audio output capture to cables a & b in OBS Worth noting that my OBS has every audio track individually controlled, I don't capture desktop audio. :)
Hey guys, I'm no Tech wizard but I did spend hours trying to get this right. My goal was to make more reactions with my friends' discord voices, my voice, and my video audio all on different frequencies.. I got stuck on the cable step around 11:00 in the vid, but the "Cable OUTPUT" option wasn't showing up.. To fix this try to find the "VBCABLE_Driver_Pack43" in ur download folder and run the "VBCable_Setup" as Administrator. After a computer reset the option to use the Cable Output should appear (Or at least it did for me)
How long did it take it for you to start installing? ive done the administrator thing, but nothing happens afterwards? xD im not sure if its actually downloading or not.
For those still coming back to this video VoiceMeter potato is free now so you get an extra audio to separate! Think it might be a bit more stable as well but not sure!
if only i read the comments before going through the entire tutorial!! ive already spent like 2hrs on this, but tomorrow when i have free time im definitely gonna download potato. Thank u for the useful information!
Finally a tutorial that actually shows discord, OBS and windows example instead of yapping its feature and just touching around the VB because everybody else kept doing that in their tutorial
Thank you for this. I pretty much just started streaming (mostly prepping to do Extra Life this year) and was hoping there was a way to listen to other stuff while I work on games during that lengthy stream without it coming through the stream itself.
Bro!! This has helped me so much. I can finally start my journey in content creation with this. Absolutely amazing visuals, explanation and personality! 10/10
Dude, I know this is an old video, but helped so much. I have done this many times, but it is always sooooo long between when I actually have to go in and do it that I have to relearn everything. It was really helpful to have the diagram, which I know you hated, but it helped. Thanks.
When I try to play music, Spotify says “Spotify can’t play this right now, if you have the file on your computer you can import it.” How do I fix this?!
Although this is a 4 month old comment, this is happening because your virtual input is not selected properly. Make sure Its Voicemeter Input as the default device in "change system sounds".
Make sure it was installed properly, an I know u posted this two months ago but make sure you restarted ur device, also u can go to device management to see if there is a problem with the driver for the virtual hardware
Hi nutty! Great video. Would I be able to do this backwards? Like bring external audio into OBS and use this “box” to send that audio into Discord? Please let me know. Trying to do a radio show on discord with DJ’d music and it keeps dropping out and has no dynamics. I can DJ stream to Twitch without these issues, however, the person in charge doesn’t want to use Twitch and keep everything in Discord. Thanks in advance!
@@ZachNohKap my issue was that when I restarted my computer It changed my default audio device back to what it was before so I had to swap it again, fixed the issue
thank you so much for this video out of everyone i watched. You were the clearest person ever and its been weeks of me trying to fix my audio and i can finally stream.
There are a few things worth mentioning: 1. Windows notification sounds always play through the audio device you’ve set in the sound settings. So if you want to filter those out, you have to route the audio you want through another channel 2. Some games/programs ignore the Windows audio mixer. They either always play through whatever is set in their settings or worse always use the main Windows output device (which makes point 1. impossible). It’s really annoying to have everything working as you want to then run into one of these programs that then breaks everything you just did. So prepare for this in advance. 3. The VB audio cables have another nice feature. They all exist as a input and output device at the same time. What they do is they send everything you play to the output device to the input device (that's also why you can hook up the input device in Voicemeeter, but actually play audio to the output device). This gives you a simple way to play sounds from you computer to a program that only accepts input devices (it’s away to annoy everyone in Discord with your own music)
NUTTY BUDDY holy shit dude, I've watched like 5 guides and this is the only one that actually helped me remove discord sounds from my stream audio. You are an absolute legend brother!
When I set my Hardware out to my speakers with the WDM version, I get crackling/robotic sound. But it's fixed as soon as I use MME. Is there anyway to fix this, so I can use WDM?
1. Task Manager (run as admin) 2. Details 3. Right click audiodg.exe 4. Set priority -> high 5. Set affinity -> uncheck All Processor 6. Check on one of the cpus, I checked CPU 1. You have to this every time your pc or laptop starts up. Hope this helps!
NUTTY!!! THANK YOU!!! This was EXACTLY what I needed. I had no idea how any of this kind of stuff worked. All I wanted was to make it so only I could hear my browser audio at times. I asked other people for help and they had me running around in circles, doing all kinds of things that didn't work, with all kinds of extra steps and bad instructions. But you explained it perfectly and simply and this works just like I needed it to. I appreciate it
Yo. I've looked at so many other guides but none of them were able to clearly explain this, until I came across your video. Thanks so much for the tutorial. Love the way you explain things and love your humor as well. Keep it up man.
I'm so happy I found this channel. 4 years of streaming, making Partner, and friggen everything else... I'm just now learning how to work my audio. lol
I watched another person make a video on this and got tired and walked away and then came back, and watched yours and you made it easier to handle cus you mentally prepared me. Thank you hah. I have it all going great now.
Watched some Tutorials from other RUclips, they didn't work or I got confused. watched this one and worked first time and was easy to follow, thank you sir!
Not only did i find this video super helpful but I personally enjoyed the way he explained all the information. Giving all the necessary info, very clearly might I add, in a much more casual and relaxed manner that I really don't see very often among many tutorial videos. I'm definitely checking out dudes' streams after I get this stuff working.
I have used this guide to set up my voice meter if I ever have issues with it. might be 3 years old, but is still the best guide and explanation of how to use voice meter
Thank you so much for breaking it down to beginner level! I love the diagrams. It makes it easier to understand (even if I already had an idea of how it works). This is exactly what I was looking for. Subscribed :D
How useful of a video can you make? This guy: YES! Honestly, this is just insanely informative. Thank you! FYI, I'm not a streamer, I just love playing couch multiplayer games with my brother over Parsec and this helps a LOT.
This was WAY more helpful than the other three Voicemeeter tutorials I watched before this one. I especially appreciate that you pointed out that cables A, B, C, and D are all ADDITIONAL cables and that there is one that's totally free (one video made me think that the ABCD cables were all that existed).
Bro, you have the best explanation on how this app work, and if I hadn't found your video, I would be pulling my hair out...which is none. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you! I've been using VM for a couple years now, and I had kinda managed to figure out a few things, but after watching your video and fiddling around with a couple things I finally ACTUALLY understand how it works, and was able to set everything up how I like!
Just followed this tutorial, thank you so much, like seriously. I was figuring out how to do this for hours, and this tutorial was the one that did it. Thank you!
OMG thank you so much you made everything that much easier to understand. I've spent hours just trying to figure out what everything mean and you seem to have thought that in minutes

Trying to do a radio show on discord with DJ’d music and it keeps dropping out and has no dynamics. I can DJ stream to Twitch without these issues, however, the person in charge doesn’t want to use Twitch and keep everything in Discord. Thanks in advance!
When i choose my headset in A1 it causes an audio render error and makes me restart
I restarted and it worked fine. Set it to wdm specifically
@@ZachNohKap my issue was that when I restarted my computer It changed my default audio device back to what it was before so I had to swap it again, fixed the issue
Literally comes out a day after I uninstalled it due to all the headaches it gave me.
Samee. My mic sucked after i installed this
@@edgyweeeb5334 What mic and did you get it working?
@@edgyweeeb5334 I ended up getting an elgato wave, don't need voicemeeter anymore. It's far more intuitive and a lot less issues.
Completely agreed. I tried for months to get it to work. It was awful.
@@messiahshow bm800 turns out its good without voice meter. Just use filters on obs
This is the 4th or 5th time this video saves my life. Thanks man, really top notch video on this confusing subject!
thank you so much for this video out of everyone i watched. You were the clearest person ever and its been weeks of me trying to fix my audio and i can finally stream.
There are a few things worth mentioning:
1. Windows notification sounds always play through the audio device you’ve set in the sound settings. So if you want to filter those out, you have to route the audio you want through another channel
2. Some games/programs ignore the Windows audio mixer. They either always play through whatever is set in their settings or worse always use the main Windows output device (which makes point 1. impossible). It’s really annoying to have everything working as you want to then run into one of these programs that then breaks everything you just did. So prepare for this in advance.
3. The VB audio cables have another nice feature. They all exist as a input and output device at the same time. What they do is they send everything you play to the output device to the input device (that's also why you can hook up the input device in Voicemeeter, but actually play audio to the output device). This gives you a simple way to play sounds from you computer to a program that only accepts input devices (it’s away to annoy everyone in Discord with your own music)
the ( ) at the end though
I NEEDED THAT THANK YOU
When I set voicemeeter input as my default device, my sound gets super choppy. Anyone have any idea why this is happening?
@@keltbosman7176 Same I found no solution.
Just ditch the software and get a audio interface and if you can afford it a Behringer mixer, I have no issues now.
NUTTY BUDDY holy shit dude, I've watched like 5 guides and this is the only one that actually helped me remove discord sounds from my stream audio. You are an absolute legend brother!
Perfect! I remember watching this a few years ago when I started streaming WoW classic raiding and I needed a refresher.
When I set my Hardware out to my speakers with the WDM version, I get crackling/robotic sound. But it's fixed as soon as I use MME. Is there anyway to fix this, so I can use WDM?
me tooo how do i fixe that
1. Task Manager (run as admin)
2. Details
3. Right click audiodg.exe
4. Set priority -> high
5. Set affinity -> uncheck All Processor
6. Check on one of the cpus, I checked CPU 1.
You have to this every time your pc or laptop starts up. Hope this helps!
use mme instead of wdm
it is where you first choice input and uotput inside voicemeeter

First you came for Kelly Clarkson, and now you've gotta throw Michelle Branch under the bus? Monster.
NUTTY!!! THANK YOU!!!
This was EXACTLY what I needed. I had no idea how any of this kind of stuff worked. All I wanted was to make it so only I could hear my browser audio at times. I asked other people for help and they had me running around in circles, doing all kinds of things that didn't work, with all kinds of extra steps and bad instructions. But you explained it perfectly and simply and this works just like I needed it to. I appreciate it
Yo. I've looked at so many other guides but none of them were able to clearly explain this, until I came across your video. Thanks so much for the tutorial. Love the way you explain things and love your humor as well. Keep it up man.
Who else was following step by step and suddendly broken desktop audio at 5:52 ?.... :(
Watch on your phone. Had to do that after installing
I'm so happy I found this channel. 4 years of streaming, making Partner, and friggen everything else... I'm just now learning how to work my audio. lol
Great Video, tried this with another video ages ago and got so confused, Clear and concise. Cheers!
Very good intro.
Your explaination got me right away.
Every Voicemeter Tutorial expects one to be a sound engineer
This just fixed all my pc audio channel crap completely, good job.
I watched another person make a video on this and got tired and walked away and then came back, and watched yours and you made it easier to handle cus you mentally prepared me. Thank you hah. I have it all going great now.
Just found the best guy, after wasting 4 hours searching on how to do this and understand it. big love to this cool guy !
Watched some Tutorials from other RUclips, they didn't work or I got confused.
watched this one and worked first time and was easy to follow, thank you sir!
Not only did i find this video super helpful but I personally enjoyed the way he explained all the information. Giving all the necessary info, very clearly might I add, in a much more casual and relaxed manner that I really don't see very often among many tutorial videos. I'm definitely checking out dudes' streams after I get this stuff working.
I have used this guide to set up my voice meter if I ever have issues with it. might be 3 years old, but is still the best guide and explanation of how to use voice meter
I watched several videos on setting up Voicemeeter but this one is by far the best. Thanks!!!
Thank you so much for breaking it down to beginner level! I love the diagrams. It makes it easier to understand (even if I already had an idea of how it works). This is exactly what I was looking for. Subscribed :D
You enlightened me bro!! for the longest time using it the wrong way..your explanation is clear and precise!!✌✌😁😁
How useful of a video can you make? This guy: YES! Honestly, this is just insanely informative. Thank you! FYI, I'm not a streamer, I just love playing couch multiplayer games with my brother over Parsec and this helps a LOT.
This was WAY more helpful than the other three Voicemeeter tutorials I watched before this one. I especially appreciate that you pointed out that cables A, B, C, and D are all ADDITIONAL cables and that there is one that's totally free (one video made me think that the ABCD cables were all that existed).
I watch this tutorial at least twice a month. Thank you for putting out such an easy to follow tutorial c:
Your diagram of how Voicemeeter works was a better explanation in two minutes compared to others I've seen in 20 minutes - thanks!
God Bless people who do tutorials on youtube. this was excellent and it completely solved my problem.
Bro, you have the best explanation on how this app work, and if I hadn't found your video, I would be pulling my hair out...which is none. Thank you so much for sharing.
Dude! I’ve seen so many VM videos yours is THE best. You broke it down and very easy to understand! THANK YOU!
Saved my sanity your bit at the beginning about trying other tutorials and having to give up on them was so accurate. Thanks!!
Once again, this vid has been my absolute lifesaver, trying to get a friend set up with voicemeeter today went great thanks to your tutorial! :D
Thank you! I've been using VM for a couple years now, and I had kinda managed to figure out a few things, but after watching your video and fiddling around with a couple things I finally ACTUALLY understand how it works, and was able to set everything up how I like!
The best tutorial out there! Now we need to know how to setup VoiceMeter to send outputs to the streaming pc :D
Been having so much trouble with audio. This helped so much even a year later. Appreciate it man.
A windows update left my voicemeeter banana settings completely reset. This is still the best guide out there on how to set it up - thank you
Just followed this tutorial, thank you so much, like seriously. I was figuring out how to do this for hours, and this tutorial was the one that did it. Thank you!
Finally an easy to understand and digest tutorial on this behemoth for first-time streamers/recorders
Dude, not only super helpful but I also almost smiled once. Good job!
OMG thank you so much you made everything that much easier to understand. I've spent hours just trying to figure out what everything mean and you seem to have thought that in minutes
