Further more, and no offense, but when did 128 become a good bitrate? back in the 90's before broadband. Koz wrote: "Audacity default good quality MP3 stereo export is or used to be 128" The default MP3 quality in Audacity 2.1.2 is LAME's "Standard" setting (170 - 210 kbps VBR).

I suspect that the noise is electrical interference from your computer.
Have all of your tests been on the same laptop?

From looking at the Banana documentation it looks like it should be able to do what you want, provided that your computer can handle the amount of data without too many drop-outs, but be assured this is a difficult task for one computer. The "professional" way to handle this would be to us...

So far I've been able to get both mics working on the Skype conversation using Voicemeeter Banana, but when I start recording in Audacity, I can only hear our two Yeti microphones. Skype is recording fine in Audacity and you can hear it in the playback, but for some reason, I can't hear the Skype c...
