I'm routing something through virtual audio cable. All DAW supports routing through software because with direct monitoring you can't hear internal effects like EQ or compressor.
Audacity isn't a DAW, it's a multi-channel sound editor.ms22282 wrote:All DAW supports routing through software because with direct monitoring you can't hear internal effects like EQ or compressor.
"Audacity® is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds."
DAWs use low-latency sound systems such as ASIO. Audacity is not able to be shipped with ASIO support due to licensing restrictions (because Audacity is open source and ASIO is not).
For real-time effects processing, you would be better to use a DAW.
If you want to stick with open source software I recommend using Ardour (on Linux).
