Sharing ableton sound on zoom on a PC

Post by alinaft » Thu Apr 08, 2021 9:25 pm

Hi there, I'd like to figure out how to share ableton sound on zoom/skype/etc using a windows computer. What do you use that works for you?

I'm using ableton 10 and windows 10 if that helps.

Thanks!

External mixer and an audio interface with multiple input/output audio channels to allow sound to be sent out of PC, mixed then sent to a channel dedicated for screen captures etc.

If you want to talk also at the same time, you basically need to send a mix of all your sound to the one Zoom "mic input". Either a sound card with loopback or Voicemeter Banana works well. You will also need to use the Zoom desktop version for this, not the browser version.

In Zoom you just need to check the “Share computer sound” tick box to get Ableton into Zoom. For other packages you’ll need a way of looping back the audio as mentioned above.

problem will be, that you cant share stereo with zoom and so on. for this you can maybe use vst like this parallel: https://audiomovers.com/
