Can't hear anything after installing on Win10

Post by OnlyOne »

On Win7 VB-Cable worked just fine, after upgrading to Win10 it doesn't work. I hear nothing from my headphones after setting it as the default device in Sounds settings.

My purpose is only to enable Stereo Mix recording which my latest hardware does not support, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong now.

Help?

you may have probably forgotten to use the windows LISTEN option to listen to the output of the cable.
(to route the cable recording device to your headphone thanks to Windows option in device properties).

The fact is that VB-CABLE is just a cable to connect 2x applications together, a player to recorder one.
if you want to do more, you may use Voicemeeter or Voicemeeter Banana.

I forgot that the first time when I installed it on Windows 7, not this time. The option is enabled. Not only do I not hear anything but nothing gets recorded either.

I don't want to do more, I want to do exactly what I could before I upgraded my OS.
