Voicemeeter, Odyssey + and Buttkicker.

[The_Nephilim]

Hey Guys,

First post here hopefully someone can help me out here.. I had recently bought a NNew VR Headset the Odyssey Plus, I also reconnected my Buttkicker to the mix..

Well turns out from the Buttkicker website they recommended using a program like Voicemeeter to get the buttkicker working with the USB Headset speakers.. Well I got it all running a while ago and every thing worked fine.. the problem I am having now is I reinstalled Windows 10 and I am unable to control just the headsets volume with the built in VR Volume control..

I was able to control just the headsets volume with the built in volume control on the headset.. Now I found out how to tie in the headset with Voicemeeter but it also controls the volume of the buttkicker, it did not do this before..

What I noiticed now is under Hardware out it used to say ASIO Speakers (USB 2.0) out but now it says Creative SBZ series ASIO Device. I think because it is recognising my Sound card not the headset device like it did before I am unable to control just the volume of the headset with the built in volume control on the headset..

I tried uninstalling the program but it keeps recognizing the Creative SBZ device instead of the headset device like it did before I forget the exact name but it was not Creative SBZ Series ASIO Device.. Now there is the headset listed Speakers Realtek USB 2.0 headset but when I select that the buttkicker does not come on..

I had it working before I reinstalled windows by being able to control just the headsets volume without effecting the buttkicker volume.. I could use a hand on how can I get the correct device to be recognized as it does not even show in the hardware output now.. here are some specs ogf my system incase that matters.:

1. Intel i5 7600K
2. MSI Z270 SLI motherboard.
3. Asus 1080GTX 430.84 drivers.
4. SoundBlaster Z soundcard.
5. Buttkicker Simulation kit.
6. thrustmaster Cougar Joystick. USB
7 thrustmaster MFD Buttons USB
8. Logitiech Momo Racing wheel. USB
9. Saitek Combat rudder pedals USB
10 Samsung Odysssey Plus VR Headset.

I did find how to bind the volume control on the headset (Hook Volume keys throught Output A1) but that also controls the buttkicker volume which I did not have before.. I used the volume control on the headset and it controlled that volume only as the buttkicker was unaffected.. I am not sure what I did different before to get the headset device to show up under ASIO but it is not and I think that is the issue..

So if you know how I can get the VR Headset to be detected as the ASIO Device I would love to hear how I can do that?

if you need to control 2 or more outputs device independently, you need to use Voicemeeter Banana at least (voicemeeter standard does not provide nidependent BUS for A1 & A2).

No, I don't need two devices I just need the proper device to show up. I was trying to say the device that used to show up does not anymore.. it shows up as Asio USB 2.0 headset but all I get now is SBZ..

[Vincent Burel]

don't understand your problem, please send a screenshot.

In the picture I posted under Hardware Out it says "Asio:Creative SBZ Series Asio Device".

Before it listed a second Asio device something like "Asio USB 2.0 headset" and when I selected that I was able to control the volume in the headset ONLY not both buttkicker and headset..

But after I reinstalled windows I no longer get that other device listed under Hardware out.. I am trying to figure out how to get the other device listed there too..

seems you are missing an ASIO driver... maybe not installed for 32bit app... Voicemeeter is listing 32bits ASIO Driver interface only... but ASIO manufacturer are expected to install both ASIO interface on 64bit O/S : for 32 or 64 bits app.

So what can I do to fix this issue? reinstall Voicemeeter?

[Vincent Burel]

no, install the 32bit ASIO driver for your device.

Well the device I need the driver for is the Samsung Odyssey Plus, it uses a USB for sound.. I did not see drivers at Samsung website I could install besides what was already installed when I first installed the headset..

Would by chance the device need to be On when I start up Voicemeeter or install it to get the Asio Driver?? I googled Asio driver but is the driver from Steinberg what I need??

I am unsure what an Asio driver is and where I can get it for my device..

[Vincent Burel]

well, at least your "Samsung Odyssey Plus" should appear in windows audio device list... maybe there is not ASIO driver for this device, but at least you should have WDM or MME interface for it... check in Windows Sound Dialog Box... (independently from Voicemeeter).
