Voicemeeter Streamer View! Sub Mixing with Voicemeeter (From Sept. 2021)

[00:00] all right this is going to be

[00:04] not like anything professional but uh

[00:07] hopefully it will give you some insight

[00:09] on the

[00:10] stream review

[00:12] uh

[00:13] new thingy

[00:14] that's pretty cool

[00:17] um

[00:18] I don't use bananas so uh I just threw

[00:21] some things in here I got my headphones

[00:22] uh my Rift and uh speakers on my desk

[00:27] as you can see nothing's showing up here

[00:28] at the moment and that's because you

[00:30] need to rename stuff and I am doing that

[00:32] is by right clicking uh so this is my

[00:34] mic press enter now my mic's there I can

[00:36] control the volume a little bit quieter

[00:39] uh I want this at negative five though

[00:42] um this for example could be Discord if

[00:45] you do use a something like a table for

[00:47] example

[00:48] so now Discord will be here

[00:50] the volume slider connects with that one

[00:52] over there

[00:54] um

[00:55] this I'm not using at the moment so I'll

[00:56] just turn it off

[00:59] um

[01:00] this column on banana I will usually

[01:02] tell people to use as their game column

[01:04] or desktop audio

[01:07] you can see it shows it there so in one

[01:10] in two

[01:11] and then you got virtual in number one

[01:13] virtual in number two

[01:16] uh we can I'll usually tell people to do

[01:19] I'll usually tell people to do um

[01:21] Spotify slash uh their browser for this

[01:24] one since uh it's fine if they're

[01:26] together because you really never

[01:27] control the volume of them both at the

[01:29] same time because you're not you you're

[01:31] not listening to music and watching like

[01:32] a YouTube video at the same time

[01:34] um so yeah so we can move this slider

[01:37] I'll connect that one with this slider

[01:38] connects with that one

[01:41] um

[01:43] so that is for the input strips if you

[01:46] want more output buses to show right at

[01:48] the moment is A1 is the only one that

[01:50] shows

[01:52] um

[01:52] I can rename this so this could be my

[01:54] headphones because that's what it is

[01:56] and I'll show headphone second one

[01:58] that's my Rift I'm just going off of

[02:00] what I have up here by the way so a one

[02:02] two three

[02:04] um

[02:06] that's my Rift I'll enter that oh

[02:08] enter that and I got my Rift there

[02:11] then my third one is my speakers

[02:15] look at all three of those showing I can

[02:17] control all three

[02:19] from the stream review thing

[02:21] this at the moment does nothing uh

[02:25] this is just the like the beta I guess

[02:27] we'll call it I think this is supposed

[02:29] to come out the end of October

[02:32] um so yeah it's out now you can download

[02:34] it but it's uh you need to download

[02:36] potato so if you're already on banana or

[02:39] the original one

[02:41] you I mean I would suggest maybe waiting

[02:44] because I mean banana should fit on your

[02:45] screen anyways it's mostly for potato

[02:48] um if it doesn't fit on your screen

[02:49] because this is resizable

[02:51] so that's probably the biggest

[02:54] thing that comes with this

[02:56] um maybe wait to the end of October then

[02:59] um

[03:00] you get this instead of having to

[03:01] download potato and then you'll get like

[03:03] all the new drivers that you're not used

[03:04] to anymore because

[03:06] potato comes with

[03:08] um extra stuff that you're not used to

[03:09] so I don't know if you want to start

[03:11] dabbling in that but

[03:13] yeah

[03:15] um

[03:17] we got B1 and B2 at the moment you're

[03:19] hearing me through B1 as you can see

[03:21] when I talk if I turn it off

[03:25] you can you can hear me anymore so you

[03:27] hear me through B1 at the moment

[03:30] so let's name B1 as my mic

[03:33] um because that's what I'll probably use

[03:35] it for this will be my mic and Discord

[03:37] everywhere like that

[03:39] um

[03:39] B2 that's another it's another B1

[03:42] basically but just for something else so

[03:44] B1 could be your microphone and Discord

[03:46] and B2 might could be your microphone

[03:47] and zoom or something like that in my

[03:49] case I use B2

[03:51] um for an app called Shadow Play It's

[03:53] like a recording software so I'll use

[03:55] Shadow play and you'll see that my

[03:57] microphone is going to both B1 and B2

[04:01] um which is good because I want my

[04:02] microphone to record in Shadow play and

[04:05] I like clip something in there

[04:08] um

[04:09] and yeah so every time I'm adding all

[04:11] these stuff it adds it to the original

[04:14] inputs up here so say if I want to turn

[04:17] off B2 for my mic so it doesn't show on

[04:19] Shadow play anymore because that's what

[04:20] B2 is I just click it and it turns it

[04:22] off right here I can turn it back on and

[04:24] off and see it's connecting with that

[04:26] um

[04:27] so it's basically just a voice meter but

[04:29] shove to the side and you can remove it

[04:30] around

[04:32] um obviously it doesn't show every

[04:33] feature over here but it shows probably

[04:35] the most significant ones you would use

[04:36] while streaming

[04:38] hence stream review

[04:41] um

[04:43] and yeah so these will all move together

[04:46] um

[04:47] I don't know about sub mixing at the

[04:49] moment with banana I don't believe you

[04:51] can do that

[04:53] um

[04:53] potato is a whole different story you

[04:55] definitely can do that you can move

[04:56] individual sliders for each like B1 if

[04:59] you want B2 to be quieter than B1 you

[05:01] can move these like that in potato but

[05:03] at the moment this was this is they're

[05:04] all stuck together a little stuttery but

[05:06] I think that I think that's just some

[05:08] fine tuning it's not the biggest deal in

[05:09] the world

[05:11] um

[05:12] yeah so that's banana

[05:15] let's just quickly move to potato I'll

[05:17] pause it here

[05:18] okay so here's potato

[05:21] um I will reset this

[05:39] okay so let's get my mic in here let's

[05:42] get the settings back on

[05:46] yeah some mic's working now

[05:48] um

[05:49] probably just gonna disable all these

[05:51] except for my music because that's what

[05:52] I want you guys to hear soon

[05:55] um

[05:56] names are staying

[05:58] um

[05:59] you don't really have to worry about

[06:00] this or this

[06:03] I'm not gonna add that stuff I'm not

[06:05] really caring about that at the moment

[06:06] and as you can see potato is quite the

[06:08] uh Behemoth

[06:10] um

[06:12] let's open up stream review

[06:14] you can see it's got a lot smaller uh

[06:16] and these are the things that are added

[06:17] here at the moment uh

[06:21] I'll delete these real quick

[06:25] so we got A2 we'll select that as we'll

[06:29] select A3 as my speakers on my desk kind

[06:31] of like how we did for

[06:33] a banana wherever that is

[06:36] so I'll re-add these so we got

[06:38] headphones it's already good uh Rift

[06:43] and speakers

[06:46] okay so now we kind of got the same

[06:48] setup as we had kind of hold on close

[06:50] desktop we're on potato now so we have

[06:53] separation and I like to separate

[06:55] Spotify here

[06:57] and my browser here

[07:00] so now we have a total of six inputs

[07:04] that we can all see here

[07:07] um

[07:09] yeah so now we got kind of like the same

[07:11] setup we had of we had with banana

[07:14] um

[07:15] but now we have a lot more stuff to play

[07:18] with we have the slider mode we have

[07:22] uh the I think it's monitored I think

[07:24] that's what this stands for

[07:26] um but

[07:28] the biggest thing between banana and

[07:30] potato with this now is sub mixing is a

[07:34] lot easier I think because before sub

[07:37] mixing like if you want to hear

[07:40] um say

[07:42] let's say we have this say we have a

[07:44] music playing right let's turn this

[07:46] music on

[07:48] [Music]

[07:50] so we got this music playing

[07:52] and say I want to hear it louder in my

[07:55] ears

[07:56] but I want you guys to keep hearing it

[07:58] at this volume

[08:00] I would use the SEL button so if I want

[08:03] to hear it louder I would select the SEL

[08:05] button on my headphones

[08:07] and I would turn it up

[08:10] so now I'm hearing it at this volume

[08:12] which is pretty loud

[08:14] but you guys

[08:18] are hearing it here and this is my mic

[08:20] is combined with it so it's kind of hard

[08:21] to tell

[08:25] but yeah you guys can see it and you

[08:26] guys are hearing at this volume

[08:29] and I'm hearing it at this volume

[08:31] that's what sub mixing would usually

[08:33] work

[08:34] and then so

[08:36] obviously I don't want those to stay

[08:37] like that

[08:38] um so I'll just I have nothing selected

[08:40] and I'll move it around and now it's

[08:42] back to normal everything's the same

[08:44] also they updated

[08:46] um pressing the SEL button on the column

[08:48] so say see how my mic's coming through

[08:50] if I press SEL in here I am now

[08:51] monitoring that audio that's going

[08:54] through B1 so I can tell how loud I'm

[08:57] how loud that audio is I'm sending which

[08:59] is really nice especially when sub

[09:00] mixing because you want to know what how

[09:02] loud it is without just looking at

[09:04] visuals so now I actually know exactly

[09:06] how loud it is

[09:08] um

[09:09] so that's how sub mixing would usually

[09:11] work

[09:12] but now that stream review is here

[09:14] I can continue to play that music

[09:16] and it's probably pretty loud I'll turn

[09:18] it down and I'll just use this for this

[09:20] so

[09:22] um

[09:23] ABS link will mix them all to the same

[09:26] that's for A1 a2a3

[09:29] um

[09:30] oh and I forgot to add B1 let's do that

[09:32] so

[09:33] I'll just label what obs

[09:37] that's a volume level what what OBS

[09:40] here's

[09:42] so

[09:44] for example right now is B1 is what OBS

[09:47] hears

[09:49] so if I turn down

[09:52] um

[09:52] this it'll turn it down for OBS now

[09:54] since b1's there because I renamed that

[09:56] right here

[09:58] so it's really quiet for me everything

[10:00] if I click this I no longer hear it

[10:02] because A1 is my headphones

[10:05] if I do this now you guys can't hear it

[10:07] but I can still hear it

[10:09] and that's I mean that's pretty common

[10:10] we're not I'm not really discussing

[10:12] about that stuff but

[10:13] so that's ABS link it'll make it'll

[10:15] Master like all these at the same volume

[10:19] relative link

[10:21] um

[10:22] that will hold on

[10:27] what was I yeah relative link will

[10:30] um

[10:30] so say if I have these on no link

[10:32] meaning I can do whatever I want with

[10:34] these

[10:35] meaning now that this is loud in my

[10:37] headphones but now it's quieter for you

[10:39] guys

[10:40] so let's stop mixing right there and

[10:42] it's super easy especially with this

[10:44] so for A2 and A3 I can make those

[10:46] actually muted

[10:49] but now you you guys are the only one

[10:51] that's able to hear the music because

[10:52] it's going through B1 because that's

[10:53] what OBS hears

[10:55] um

[10:58] so now say I do this

[11:00] now if I click

[11:02] uh

[11:03] what is this called again

[11:07] relative relative so relative if I have

[11:10] an relative now when I move this

[11:13] it's keeping everything the same and

[11:15] it's sticking kind of I don't know if

[11:17] you guys are familiar with the Elgato

[11:18] software but they have a they have a

[11:19] feature like that it's like a little

[11:20] link

[11:21] at the top and you click it and I'll

[11:23] lock these in place

[11:25] so now these are all moving relative

[11:29] um I don't know if they'll maybe come

[11:30] out with something where these will

[11:32] stick at like zero that'd be kind of

[11:34] cool

[11:36] um but yeah and then to get these back

[11:39] to all normal I'll do abs link no

[11:41] they're all back to normal

[11:43] so you probably leave it on abs for the

[11:45] most of the time just so then you're not

[11:46] moving a bunch of stuff around

[11:48] um

[11:50] but yeah so that's what that does so

[11:53] that's that's a sub mixing is different

[11:54] now with this

[11:57] whole stream review thing it's really

[11:58] cool actually

[12:01] okay so I just tested this a little bit

[12:03] uh I was looking to figure out what

[12:05] these were doing

[12:06] um basically they're just mutes so if I

[12:07] press mute here

[12:09] uh it will mute it it will mute that

[12:11] just like it's an indicator it's muted

[12:13] but um it looks to be like a bug right

[12:16] now

[12:17] um if I

[12:20] mute it from here

[12:22] doesn't mute it here

[12:24] it's obviously Spotify column so a

[12:27] little bug at the moment but it's to be

[12:29] expected it's just a beta type thing so

[12:32] it'll probably be worked out in the

[12:34] final product but it does mute if you

[12:36] mute it from

[12:37] voice meter itself it tells it's muted

[12:40] here but this has no connection to the

[12:42] voicemaker at the moment

[12:44] um

[12:47] think that's about it I mean we got the

[12:50] monitor feature here which is basically

[12:52] just submixing using the original

[12:55] SEL

[12:57] um

[12:58] a little bit faster for like using it on

[13:00] your output buses

[13:01] instead of clicking this I guess since

[13:03] you'll have this open if you're in

[13:05] stream review

[13:07] I'll probably just kind of roll with

[13:08] this thing and choose your size and all

[13:10] that stuff

[13:12] um

[13:14] but yeah I believe that is it to explain

[13:18] about what it does

[13:20] um

[13:21] and we'll see if they add more stuff in

[13:23] the uh the full version at the endoc end

[13:26] of October I believe

[13:29] yeah

[13:30] uh everything will be linked down below

[13:32] um as to where you can download this the

[13:34] new potato that is I'll also link

[13:37] um the music I was playing it's all

[13:39] copyright free stuff

[13:40] um

[13:43] yeah and I'll also throw a link to the

[13:45] uh voice meter Discord where you can

[13:47] find me or a lot of other people that

[13:49] are willing to help

[13:51] um with uh your issues and stuff so yeah

[13:55] have a good rest your day and thanks for

[13:57] watching
