VOCASTER HUB SOFTWARE

Example of Loopback usage

You might want to use both Loopback inputs
when you're recording a show but need
independent recordings of other software
sounds to mix later. For example, in your
show, you want to record your conversation
with a guest in a video call in addition to
including a sound or jingle playback from
another audio playback software.
Your video call software (e.g., Zoom), routes
its output to Playback 1-2 by default. This
appears as Loopback 1 in the mixer. You
can then route the output of your playback
software to Playback 3-4, which becomes
available as Loopback 2.
In your recording software you can now have
separate tracks for recording:
• Loopback 1 appears on your DAW
channels 7 and 8
• Loopback 2 appears on your DAW
channels 9 and 10
For all further details, please refer to
the Vocaster Hub User Guide.
