They work much like each other and offer few, minor changes. You can also use hardware connections with VM and VB, so you have more flexibility in audio links. Yes, both VB Cable and Voicemeeter are free to use while offering different settings. Any application is able to send an audio stream to the input side of a 'virtual cable' while a corresponding application can receive this stream from the output side. You can use it on computers running Windows XP or later. Virtual Audio Cable is a software product based on WDM multimedia driver that allows a user to transfer audio streams from one application to another. Voicemeeter has the most attractive design among the three alternatives.

All three lack compatibility across platforms, unfortunately. VB-Cable and Voicemeeter are free, while VAC is not. Its use of excessive jargon is also off-putting. The interface is poorly designed and has little appeal. However, the software is rather difficult to use.Įven though it has a user manual, unlike VB-Cable, VAC falls short in every way when considering design. You will find the quality of the output to be the same as the input. When you use VAC to create a virtual cable to transfer audio, there should be no worry of latency in the link when it connects to an application. Now, with this I can finally play Skyrim, but I was wondering if anyone else ran into this problem and got it working, since I don't feel like forcing Skyrim into a Mono audio channel is the correct solution.Why would you have a physical audio connection when you can have a virtual one? VAC helps create virtual audio connections. I only managed to get the correct audio output once I set the Virtual Audio Input to be a Mono channel. Tried the Quadraphonic and the 5.1/7.1 Surround options and it still didn't work. I tried setting it to Stereo (which was the default) and it didn't work. I still get the problem after doing this, but I can now access the "Configure" button in the advanced sound settings for the virtual output.
