Voicemeeter is a powerful audio mixing tool that enables gamers, streamers, and audiophiles alike to split and route audio to different devices, a capability that standard PCs typically lack. By using Voicemeeter (or similar software), users can manage multiple audio inputs and outputs, sending specific sounds to various devices such as speakers, headphones, as well as your Audio Radar. This versatility is essential for users who require precise control over their audio setup, making Voicemeeter a perfect companion for Audio Radar.
