Audacity not recording both mics from Voicemeeter

Post by ridevintagemtb » Mon Sep 24, 2018 11:39 pm

Hey all,

Got a problem here and hope you can help. I'm new to podcasting, hence new to Audacity and the software I'm using to combine two mics into one channel - Voicemeeter.

In VM, I can see both mics with good levels, but when I go to record in Audacity, I only get pickup from ONE mic (My own headset). My Blue Yeti guest mic isn't picking up at all.

In Audacity, if I select the Blue as the input it pics up. It's only when I'm setting the Audacity input to Voicemeeter am I receiving the problem. This tells me it's not the mic.

I've set my Playback and Recording defaults in Windows both to Voicemeeter. Both input and output in Audacity are also both to VM.

Anyone experienced this problem?

Thanks!

What issue exactly?
Which version of Windows?
Which version of Audacity? (look in "Help > About Audacity")
What did support at vb-audio say?
