VB Audio for Mac: A Step-by-Step Guide

Are you struggling to get VB audio working on your Mac? Look no further! This article will walk you through the process of setting up VB audio for Mac, step by step.

The first step is to select the correct microphone in your audio settings. In the microphone dropdown at the top, select VB-Cable. If you're using a Logitech Wireless Headset to listen to audio, make sure to check both 'VB-Cable' and 'Logitech Wireless Headset'. For normal audio listening, use 'Built-in Output'.

Next, create a Multi-Output Device in Audio MIDI Setup. Click the plus button in the lower left corner and select Create Multi-Output Device.

To download and install VB-CABLE for MacOS, follow these steps:

1. Open Audio MIDI Setup (press Cmd + Space, start typing Audio MIDI Setup, and select it).

2. Click the plus button in the lower left corner and select Create Multi-Output Device.

3. Download and install VB-CABLE for MacOS.

Once installed, Web Captioner will now caption audio coming from your computer instead of your microphone. If you're using a program with its own speaker/output device setting, make sure it's using 'CABLE Input' as its output device.

To adjust the level of the audio if needed, follow these steps:

1. In the microphone dropdown at the top, select 'CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'.

2. Go to Google Chrome's Settings > Privacy and security > Site Settings and under Permissions, select Microphone.

3. Click OK and OK again to close the sound settings windows.

To use this virtual audio cable for Web Captioner, follow these steps:

1. Check the box for 'Listen to this device' and in the dropdown, select the device you use to listen to audio.

2. Select the Recording tab, select 'CABLE Output', and select Properties.

3. Scroll to the bottom and select 'Sound Control Panel'.

4. Under Output, select 'CABLE Input (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'.

Finally, make sure your computer is set up to recognize the VB-CABLE audio output device and input device. To do this:

1. Open sound settings (press the Windows key, type Sound Settings, select it).

2. This will install the VB-CABLE audio output device and input device on your computer for rerouting audio to Web Captioner.

3. If this Windows Security message appears, select Install again to confirm.

With these steps, you should now have VB audio working on your Mac!
