Configuring VoiceMeeter

Defining the Input & Output devices and Buses

The Input Bus

In my example, I will be using:

• HARDWARE INPUT 1: Radio Output (what the radio is receiving from the antenna)
• HARDWARE INPUT 2: Microphone (what I talk and want to transmit to the radio)
• HARDWARE INPUT 3: Built-in Laptop Microphone (fallback)
• VIRTUAL INPUT Voicemeeter VAIO: General audio from apps
• VIRTUAL INPUT Voicemeeter AUX: Audio that comes from radio programs, to be transmitted by the transceiver.

1. Click on HARDWARE INPUT 1 and select WDM: FT-991A RX Audio (you have defined that name in the previous step) adapter
2. Repeat the same procedure for HARDWARE INPUT 2 and select your Microphone device, always choosing the WDM one
3. Rinse and repeat for HARDWARE INPUT 3, if desired, for some other input that you want control.

The Output Bus

Now, move to the HARDWARE OUT side, next to A1, A2, and A3 selectors.

In my example, the A1 bus goes to my headset; the A2 is responsible for sending the audio to the radio for transmission, and the A3` is the built-in laptop speaker.

1. Click on A1. Select your preferred audio output device. In my case, it is my headphone. WDM option.
2. Click on A2. Select FT-991A TX Audio. The WDM, as usual.
3. Click on A3. Select your secondary audio output, preferring the WDM one.

Configuring Output Devices

Giving meaningful names to it

This is also very important - And also useful. Give name to each of those inputs, outputs and sliders.

In order to be able to easily identify what's each bus/slider for, you can just right-click over the hot area and give it some meaningful to me. I have identified the hot areas with a red star. Remember, it's right-click and not the standard left-click. Give some good name to each of them.
