You absolute legend!!! Went through about 40 TH-cam tutorials and installed 3 different programs to do this and nothing worked. Thank you so much for this wonderful video!
I spent so much time with voicemeter's complexity. This has been the simplest method to connecting my optimized OBS audio to Zoom (or any communication app). Thank you very much Jamie!
Agreed Mouad! Someone recommended Voicemeeter to me, but all I really needed was a way to send my filtered and processed audio FROM OBS TO Zoom; Now I know I can do that with the virtual cable! Thanks Jamie!
I agree this is a great tutorial, but it's too bad OBS doesn't have a simple AUDIO OUTPUT the way it has VIRTUAL CAMERA OUTPUT. In ZOom you pick OBS VIRTUAL CAMERA OUTPUT, two seconds. You should also be able to pick OBS VIRTUAL AUDIO OUTPUT, two seconds. Not a 15 minute video with all the steps of our current situation. If OBS can easilyi send visual and audio to stream, or to recording, why not to zoom just as easy.
Thanks man! I tried following other TH-cam instructions and got nothing. This was the only one that was easy to follow and get my Audio from OBS into Teams and Zoom. Now I can add the noise filters and get my audio in sync with OBS. So happy.
THAAAANK YOU! This is the only video ( I have seen a bunch) that points out you need to enable "output and monitor" in OBS! Without it Blackhole 16Ch is dead. Took me ages to figure that out thanks to you! Subbed
Tell 'em what ya gonna tell 'em. Then Tell 'em! Then tell 'em what you told 'em! Brilliant explanation very well done. made my life so much easier! Grateful thanks from Australia....
Excellent and completely clear. You've explained the meaning of what's happening as well as what to do. Now I know what's happening, I will be able to troubleshoot much more easily. Thank you very much!
Great video, I have been looking and working on some of these videos trying to connect my Virtual Cables and this is by far the most helpful....Kudos Jamie. Keep up the good work.
Big problem with this kind of route is that you cant hear/ monitor yourself in the case where I am playing my midi keyboard and sending it out to zoom, i cant hear what am playing because i have designated the monitor to the virtual cable
Hi.. Jamie I had follow you video tutorial , everything work fine. ONLY 1 thing issue, I can't solve was how to I can listen back voice that had broadcast to the meeting, Because I had add filter reverb in the broadcasting Mic. In my headphone I only heard my original sound without effect which I had added.
Thanks very much - I'd got 90% of the way there in my own setup, but I'd missed one step which you covered here (setting the Monitoring device in OBS)!
So my issue is if you use the Virtual cable output under OBS Settings-Audio-Monitoring so that your guests can hear everything happening on the stream, I can no longer hear anything as their is only 1 Audio output in OBS. any solutions to this? I use Airpods and a blue Yeti Mic. I can have the sound come through my computer but not my airpods
Brilliant explanation Jamie, thank you. This all seems to work well.. but I get no audio playback from my prerecorded OBS inserts as they are playing out on zoom.. the other participants do get audio though. I've been through all my speaker settings but nothing seems to work..any thoughts?
Awesome thanks a lot for this. Saved me a lot of frustration. Using an M1 Mac with Big Sur AND a Canon Camera hooked up with Canon Webcam Utilities. And those Utilities don't work with M1 native software yet. In Zoom for example, Google Meets etc. Thus I was streaming my Canon via an older OBS version (compiled for Intel) but that way the Audio is faster than the Video, because Video needs to pass through OBS and the Virtual Camera Plugin first, while the Audio goes directly into Zoom, Google Meets or what have you. With a virtual Audio Cable I can now pass Audio though OBS as well, delay it for 200ms to now match perfectly with my lip movements. THANKS A LOT!
I installed months ago and coming back to this video, you saved me again... I DID A ROOKIE MISTAKE and I use OBS to send to MS Teams and I had sent my headset (what I hear) and it was monitoring and outputing...no wonder why people said they could hear echo...
Thanks your fantastic video demonstration. I hope you could resolve my problem encountered in OBS NDI. I had installed (i) OBS, (ii) obs-ndi NewTek (windows installer version) and (iii) NDI virtual input (received email for installation) into my Lenovo notebook x1 Gen 6. However, I selected the NDI Output Settings to OBS, the system tray for OBS virtual camera was not able to show OBS output, it showed remote computer only. Therefore, there was no audio input (i.e. Microphone) sound output from OBS to Zoom meeting. Many thanks.
This is great both I have a question. I have my mic coming in as a source and a loopback channel that plays music, etc etc. Now I setup a 2nd channel for my OBS output going to zoom. The issue is in my AirPods I not hear my voice double :(. Please help.
Thank you for this direct, to-the-point tutorial Jamie! This is EXACTLY what I was looking to do. I have a question! Since the cable will be MONITORING the audio, will I be able to set the output in OBS to "Monitor only"?
Thank you, got audio from OBS to Zoom. Now I don´t have audio to hear it on my laptop and I selected the virtual cable for monitoring device. Any way to get audio also in my speakers? Thank you
I am searching for hours now and i am doing everything as you and other tutorials say, but i can still hear myself in OBS because of the Monitoring. How do I fix it?
Thank you so much. s all the people here say it is the best explanation. Now it is 2 years later. I try to send also the Sound from a video to Zoom, but doesn't work. It is noch clear if media source is sufficient and the only thing I had to add or if I have to add something like desktop audio (which does not longer exist in den ops version 30.1.1
Thank you so much for this video! It took me about 5 youtube videos and 2.5 hours, but finally after seeing yours it worked! It was an amazing night! 🙏
Mr Gallagher....Hallelujah hahahaha seriously dude, thank you so much for making this video and for it being so easy to follow. I've been pulling what hair out (what I have left) hahaha. You have a new sub 🤘🏼
If I'm understanding this, these instructions are **not** for also getting the Zoom output back into OBS if you want to record the session in OBS. For that, you get the VB-Cable A+B version and add the steps of having Zoom send the sound and OBS pick it up. This way, participants will also be recorded by OBS. This is one of the vids that covers that: th-cam.com/video/Z-GnOZhaXTk/w-d-xo.html
If you add a 200 msec delay in obs sound, will the virtual cable get that delayed sound? (Or does Obs add the delay downstream of the monitor output point?)
@@JamieBGall yes, I see the sound levels for my mic. Everything else is set up the exact same way. I don’t know how to test if the monitor is working. Is there a way to see sound levels of the monitor device? Edit* I reinstalled OBS and it worked. Thanks!
Hi, I have my mic setup on my webcam scene in obs following your tutorial. But the problem came when I switch to my pause scene (which no mic setup there because i want my mic to be off on this scene), zoom is keep listening to my mic because seems like the monitor and output function in obs make the mic sound is always sent to the blackhole virtual mic, no matter what scene is currently active in obs, still very confusing
I’ve followed your advice but getting horrendous feedback when selecting monitor and output. I have the monitoring device set to the virtual cable. I might add I’m using a Mac. Can you advise how to fix this ?
I followed all these steps and got my mic to broadcast through the virtual cable but when I try to play a TH-cam video my guest can't hear the sound, but I can. Why is this?
Hi Jamie, excellent video! I am using an external mixer for my microphone and sound, however, I want to place a looping audio from Obs to zoom. Is this the same procedure...only naming my external mixer instead of a virtual cable? Do I still need to download a virtual cable when I have actual cables to a mixer? I'm not getting the sound into zoom, even though it appears to be showing up in my audio mixer in OBS. (Even though I can't hear it anywhere.) Thank you in advance! :)
I usually monitor and output each scene's audio to the same virtual cable. It allows me to hear all my scene's audio headphones and output to teams. When I try to mic from OBS, I monitor and output the mic to that same virtual cable, I can hear my echo of the mic being monitored through the virtual cable to the headphones. If I separate channels, I either can't hear the obs audio. Is there a way to output the mic to the same channel as the others scenes but not have it play through the same channel I use to hear through obs.
thanks mate, great video but I cannot get this working so hopefully you can help :) I find music distracting when playing video games so I want for the viewers to hear it but not me. I bought all for A, B, C and D virtual cables. I separated the sound like this, A for the music source (Chrome TH-cam free copyright music) - I want this to only be heard by my stream viewers and not me. B - for my main game I play, C for another game and D for another game. I play and stream with OBS Studio all these 3 games. However because in App volume and devices preferences, Master volume is set to Output in the Headphones, I hear all of them including the music - how can I make it so I don't hear the music? Thanks mate :)

The zoom setting to turn original sound is the best pointer. Thank you very much
At last someone explained this clearly!!!! THANKS, THANKS, THANKS!!!!
Omg thank you so much. I’ve been trying to automate my class attendance for an experiment and I couldn’t figure out the audio. Thanks mate!
This is the best and simplest explanation on how to connect the OBS audio to ZOOM. Thank you!!!
Literally saved our meeting.
Tell 'em what ya gonna tell 'em. Then Tell 'em! Then tell 'em what you told 'em! Brilliant explanation very well done. made my life so much easier! Grateful thanks from Australia....
Not clear how to have desktop sounds mixed with the microphone sound and Streamed into zoom
Thank you! I had the virtual audio cable and couldn't work it out... Thanks to your video I realised that I had the audio monitoring turned off
this is so helpful, we've looking for solutions for a while now
Excellent and completely clear. You've explained the meaning of what's happening as well as what to do. Now I know what's happening, I will be able to troubleshoot much more easily. Thank you very much!
Great video, I have been looking and working on some of these videos trying to connect my Virtual Cables and this is by far the most helpful....Kudos Jamie. Keep up the good work.
its so funny cuz all these teachers are thanking this guy for helping out with lessons when im out here using this to zoom bomb
Big problem with this kind of route is that you cant hear/ monitor yourself in the case where I am playing my midi keyboard and sending it out to zoom, i cant hear what am playing because i have designated the monitor to the virtual cable
Is there a fix to this? I noticed this same issue, it’s kind of a bummer if I can’t hear cleanly what’s being relayed to zoom.
Also works for discord, google meet, and other apps!
Hi.. Jamie
I had follow you video tutorial , everything work fine.
ONLY 1 thing issue, I can't solve was how to I can listen back voice that had broadcast to the meeting, Because I had add filter reverb in the broadcasting Mic. In my headphone I only heard my original sound without effect which I had added.
What sucks is that I lose audio monitoring. Is there another solution?
O.M.G. THANK YOU for explaining this so clearly - at last I understand!!!
Haha best of luck! Took me a while to get it sorted.
You saved my life! Thank you for simplifying the complexity.
Hello, i've been looking for hours and hours to achieve the same things but from obs to discord, simplier and less confusing tutorial ! Thanks alot !
Mannn! You are a life saver... Works like a charm.
Clear and precise. Thankyou
This is AMAZING. I've literally spent hours trying to figure this out. Thank you so much!!!
Thank you so much. You have a great knowledge of OBS and zoom. Hope you will rise to a great height as technical teacher
Such a simple and straightforward tutorial. Thank you!
This helped me so much, thank you. now I can have movie nights with friends without audio problems :)
Thank you really much. This is the only tutorial that worked for me.

Only place I actually found help. Thanks, mate
Now i can rickroll my class like a pro
Wow, Thank you for the clear and easy to understand tutorial.
finally i found the answer . on the new version you need to select zoom background noise removal and select low
Great tutorial ! Not sure why there isn’t a lot of views yet ! Thx 👍
You know what I’m gonna subscribe to support
Thank you for this excellent straight forward explanation.
Awesome thanks a lot for this.
Saved me a lot of frustration.

I tried this but I want to also hear all my desktop audio. When I did this, I can't hear anything through the headphones connected to the PC.
What an excellent presentation. Thank you !
after 2:12 the microphone feedback occur on my computer, how to fix it?
OMG I love you man, thank you so much, this is exactly what I was looking for ❤️️❤️️
does OBS has to be opened in the background during the zoom meeting?
Brilliant and clear explanation. Thanks, mate!
I installed months ago and coming back to this video, you saved me again... I DID A ROOKIE MISTAKE and I use OBS to send to MS Teams and I had sent my headset (what I hear) and it was monitoring and outputing...no wonder why people said they could hear echo...
wow it works, even my condenser mic sounds good now. Thanks Jamie
Thanks. I'm now a subscriber :-) Is there a similar option/step to choose "original audio" in Ms Teams?
thanks so much! Very helpful. Now I just need to figure out how to get my ppt sound to obs, to go to zoom. I will see if you have answer to that too.
After I download VB Audio didn't see anything other than my orginal speaker on the obs setting as you show in the video...
easiest to follow tutorial since idk how long ago 👍
Wow.....It's really Work..... easy to be done.... thank you so much
Thanks your fantastic video demonstration. I hope you could resolve my problem encountered
in OBS NDI. I had installed (i) OBS, (ii) obs-ndi NewTek (windows installer
version) and (iii) NDI virtual input (received email for installation) into my Lenovo
notebook x1 Gen 6. However, I selected the NDI Output Settings to OBS, the system
tray for OBS virtual camera was not able to show OBS output, it showed remote
computer only. Therefore, there was no audio input (i.e. Microphone) sound
output from OBS to Zoom meeting. Many thanks.
You gave a nice concise method for doing this. Cheers!

Very well explained, thanks very much for a lot of good information in a concise video.
when i try to download the VB audio it says the driver may be corrupted
used this for tiktok live studio thank you so much
Thank you for this direct, to-the-point tutorial Jamie! This is EXACTLY what I was looking to do.
I have a question! Since the cable will be MONITORING the audio, will I be able to set the output in OBS to "Monitor only"?
How can i monitor with headphones if I'm using the monitor out for the virtual cable?
Finally. I found an useful answer. Thanks a lot
Thank you, got audio from OBS to Zoom.
Now I don´t have audio to hear it on my laptop and I selected the virtual cable for monitoring device.
Any way to get audio also in my speakers?
Thank you
Thanks. Now I'm set.
Simple and clear thanks mate !
How do you make this sound so simple ? Ur really good at explaining, keep up the great work thank u so much
i dont get VB audio cable in the monitoring devices list
I just realised that this was posted on my birthday 😳
I am searching for hours now and i am doing everything as you and other tutorials say, but i can still hear myself in OBS because of the Monitoring. How do I fix it?
This setup in OBS worked with source-nexus as well. Thanks!! I'll have to check out Blackhole 16 in the future
Now I can't hear anything in OBS. Is that suppose to happen?
Thank you! Love from Sri lanka.
I want to cast a per recorded lecture via zoom. Can you help me?
Excellent tutorial. I'm a subscriber now.
Thanx very much dude. Been having this problem for a while. Great video.

for me this works only partially: my audience in calls here's now the sounds of the videos I play. However, now I can't hear them anymore...
Loved it, subscribed. Just one suggestion: it would be great if you explain how using OBS audio feed in Zoom would actually be a better experience.
Thanks! That's a really good idea, thanks
That was super helpful. Thank you!
If you add a 200 msec delay in obs sound, will the virtual cable get that delayed sound? (Or does Obs add the delay downstream of the monitor output point?)
need to know this aswell
Subbed for the brogue. Zoom sees my virtual cable, I selected it for mic, but no signal on mic check.
I don’t get it. I’ve done these steps multiple times and it simply won’t work for me. I get no audio coming into zoom.
Do you know where the disconnect is? Do you see the sound levels working in OBS?
@@JamieBGall yes, I see the sound levels for my mic. Everything else is set up the exact same way. I don’t know how to test if the monitor is working. Is there a way to see sound levels of the monitor device?

does OBS need to be running in the background when your using either Teams or Zoom. ?
Yes. You need to run it the whole time so it can be quite intensive
dude, i cannot hear sound
I’ve followed your advice but getting horrendous feedback when selecting monitor and output. I have the monitoring device set to the virtual cable. I might add I’m using a Mac. Can you advise how to fix this ?

Does this work for Discord Virtual Cam?
I love it, more power! thanks for your help!
This worked however there is a delay when I talk.
