Are you looking to set up a soundboard with Virtual Audio Cable (VAC) on your Mac? You're in the right place! In this article, we'll explore how to use VAC to route audio from various sources and create a seamless experience for distance learning using Zoom and OBS.

First, let's start with what you can do with VAC. This powerful tool allows you to route audio from your mic, media clips, and other sources into a virtual cable that you can then use as an output device. With VAC, you can trigger sounds with custom keyboard hotkeys, play them through up to 2 outputs, and even save your recordings as MP3 files.

When it comes to setting up VAC on your Mac, things get a bit more complicated. But don't worry, we'll break it down step by step. First, you'll need to download and install VAC from the official website. Once installed, open the app and follow the prompts to set up your virtual audio cable.

Next, you'll need to configure your Mac's Audio MIDI Setup. This is where things can get a bit tricky, but stick with us! In the Audio MIDI Setup app, create a new multi-output device called 'OBS Training' and select OBS Training as the output device.

Now, let's talk about how to route audio from your sources into VAC. You can use the Blue Yeti microphone as your input source, and then route the audio through iShowU Audio Capture to VAC. To do this, go to Advanced Monitoring Device in OBS and select 'OBS Training' as the output device.

But what about hearing yourself in the headset? This is a common issue when using a soundboard with VAC on your Mac. To fix this, you'll need to adjust your Mac's sound settings. Go to System Preferences > Sound, and select 'OBS Training' as the output device.

With these steps complete, you should now be able to use VAC to route audio from various sources and create a seamless experience for distance learning using Zoom and OBS. Just remember to keep an eye on your audio levels and adjust them as needed to ensure that everything sounds clear and crisp.
