The Voicemeeter insert ASIO is super powerfull. I currently have it set up inside of Waves Superrack as a "proxy mixer" as I do not have a mixing console at hand, but I do have an old screen with touch functionality. Anyways, inside of Superrack, I am processing all my audio channels (mic, music, desktop and discord) and yes, you can even process the output channels before they get sent to a physical output. The only problem with this setup is that I am limited to waves plugins this way, but you can switch out Superrack for any DAW (Image-Line minihost and Cantabile is free) and use any plugins this way. It is even possible to combine the channels into a single stereo bus and feed that back into Voicemeeter as a makeshift "Master Bus", a feature that has been missing from OBS since basically forever, and add a limiter to the entire audio stream to avoid any potential clipping, but also to boost the final audio output into OBS. Just keep in mind, some plugins introduce latency, either due to lookahead or general processing delay. Limiters and noise removal plugins are among the worst in this regard, and OBS does not correct this, even if you load them in there directly. Some DAW's like Reaper, Cantabile should have this feature too but I don't remember where, can show exactly how much latency is added in their built-in performance monitor (though it's shown in samples, and not milliseconds), and you'll have to calculate and set the offset manually in OBS. This entire comment is a massive oversimplification of my own personal setup, and even trying to explain how it works in a visual context would probably make most people turn away really fast, but the point is: Voicemeeter is stupidly powerfull, and we have barely scratched the surface of it's capabilities.

It is not the best for sitting down and just flipping everything on for these reasons. But when you have the time to get everything just so it sounds awesome. Now if I could figure out my USB hum.....

First of all: Great Video! I think I'm starting to understand the Patch Insert system. However, what I can't seem to figure out is: How can I use VST Plugins on my output instead? More accurately: After mixing various input sources I want to apply a chain of VST plugins on my output after mixing all input channels, just before they are sent to the actual output device.

7:52 is where you say you "don't have to" use the VST plugins for the mic alone. That's awesome... but I cannot figure out for the life of me how to get those plugins to apply to ALL of my sound being output. You go on to see that I'm interested in that then I should check the video you linked, which is the one about setting up Voicemeeter. I watched that whole video but you don't get into how to apply the VSTs to the overall output there. SO, I'm using Lighthost for my plugins and they are currently working only for mic... HOW to get it to work for ALL sound coming through my system? For instance, let's say that I am doing a voiceover, stopping to play clips from a debate stream... I want the effects from the VSTs to apply to BOTH my microphone audio AND the browser audio. Right now I can only apply the VSTs to the mic input OR one of the virtual cable inputs... how do I apply it to all sound coming through my virtual output that is being recorded by OBS or Audacity?

Hello Franswah Studio, first of all. Thanks for that Video! In the end of the Video you told us we dont have to use this just for our Mic and thats exactly what I want to do. The Programm allows us to use VST Plugins in Voicemeter but where can i tell the programm for which channel it should use which VST Plugin? I want to put a delay in Channel 2 where my Virtual Audio cable delivers the Sound which isnt synchron with my voice when i send it out through voicemeter. My way to fix this is to put a delay Plugin on the Audio which comes on Channel 2. I cant find a way to set the Plugin explicit to Channel 2. It uses always all Inserts. If someone else has an idea i would be happy to hear it. Thanks in Advance
