Virtual Audio Cable is a program for Windows that provides an advanced audio routing tool to transmit streams between applications through virtual devices.
Mix
After setup, users can connect audio output from one utility directly into the input of another without using physical cables. This is especially beneficial for streamers or podcasters who want to mix voice chat, background music and system audio in real time. By configuring virtual wires, the sound flows seamlessly between apps.
Moreover, you are able to create multiple routes, each acting as an isolated stereo or multichannel stream. It is possible to assign these cables to different devices, managing separate audio flows in parallel. Each channel has its own volume control, sample rate and format settings to suit specific workflows.
Latency
The tool achieves audio transmission with extremely low latency, maintaining sound quality and synchronization. You can make sure that there is a minimal delay between playback and recording across virtual endpoints, whether you are streaming on Twitch or playing on Steam. The routing does not consume much of system resources as well and runs seamlessly in the background.
Features
- allows users to fine-tune latency and sync parameters;
- users can record stream activity and errors for technical analysis;
- cable management is possible via external MIDI commands;
- free to download and use;
