At the end, we cover an alternative with a better interface: the EarTrumpet app.ġ. In this guide we'll talk about where this new, highly requested, internal sound routing option is in Windows 10 and how to use it, step by step.

As for input, if you have multiple microphones connected to the system, you can assign different microphones to different apps. The Windows 10 April 2018 update introduced the possibility to configure applications to use separate audio outputs (speakers, headphones, external HDMI, etc) and inputs, right within Windows.įor instance, you can now route a video player's audio to a HDMI connected TV, while another application, like an audio player for example, can use the headphones connected to the PC for its audio. Alternatively, if the application permitted, you could select the audio output right within the application itself. Up until now, assigning applications to different sound outputs was possible using only 3rd party apps, such as CheVolume (paid with 7 days trial) or Audio Router (free), which still work ok for Windows 10, 8.1, and 7. If you want to record additional sounds, make sure it’s playing through the Line 1 playback device as well.Have you ever needed to route different audio to HDMI and desktop speakers or switch an application to a different playback device? Windows 10 now makes things easier for these tasks. Note that we didn’t set the Line 1 playback device as default, so anything else you play will still go through your main audio device and won’t be recorded.

Now you can use your sound fully while using ASIO4ALL on Windows 7/Vista, and if you want to record the output of ASIO4ALL, you can do so using the Line 1 recording device. Now configure ASIO4ALL: enable the output for “Virtual Audio Cable” only and check “Force WDM Driver To 16 Bit” (I find that not doing this introduces extra latency), and disable the output for your main audio device Click on the Listen tab, check “Listen to this device”, select your main audio device under “Playback through this device:” and click OK for both screens. Go to Control Panel → Sounds, click on the Recording tab, right click Line 1 and go to Properties. Here is how to do it:īuy Virtual Audio Cables (or you can find it on the internet somewhere if you search, although I don’t condone piracy) I’ve solved this issue for those who want to use ASIO4ALL on Windows 7/Vista.Ī program called Virtual Audio Cables (> Virtual Audio Cable (VAC) - connect audio applications, route and mix sounds> ) enables you to route audio to your main sound device, and since it uses a virtual WDM driver, it doesn’t cause the same problem. Ok I got it working, I totally ditched the ASIO multi server and followed this explaination that I found on another forum:
