You can click the Testīutton, then switch to TextAloud and click to Speak an article to make sure the Zoom microphone is working with TextAloud. Click on Audio from the menu options on the left, then from the dropdown, select "CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)". On the screen that opens, just click Install Driver to install VB-Cable on your Windows PC.īe sure to REBOOT YOUR SYSTEM after the install.Īfter rebooting, from the Settings menu in TextAloud select General Application Options and set the audio device to "CABLE Input".įrom the main screen in Zoom software, click the small gear icon in the upper right corner to open the Settings screen.īelow is the Settings screen for Zoom software. Right click the setup file and run it as administrator. Unzip the download, and run either the 32 bit or 64 bit setup file. You can download a zip file for VB-Cable at: VB-Cable is donationware, which means the application is free to use, with all functions available, but if you find it useful youĪre expected to pay VB-Audio for your license by making a donation at. The Virtual Audio Cable software for Windows PCs that we recommend for this is VB-Cable from This use can be accomplished through using Virtual Audio Cable software to create a virtual link, allowing one application (TextAloud) to send an audio stream to the input side of a "virtual cable" while a corresponding application (for example, Zoom) can receive this stream from the output side. For example, a voice-impaired user might find they can more actively participate in a Zoom call by using TextAloud to create high quality synthesized voice audio rather then being relegated to only typing. It allows you to create alot more virtual audio drivers, but it is paid afaik.īut that aside, I couldnt find a good, maintained and updated opensource alternative either, yet.TextAloud users often ask us how to play a text to speech audio stream through the microphone of another application like Zoom, the popular video chat software. If you actually need more virtual audio drivers, there is Virtual Audio Cable. With that, you can split (or maybe duplicate is the better term) a sound source to a virtual audio driver and to an actual audio device at the same time, and set up both volumes to the same level to get an impression of how loud/silent it actually is. If you invest osme time into it, you will learn how it works real quick. But in general, virtual audio drivers are very simple made and its normal that you cant really control its volume, since its virtual and it has no real sound output for you to hear.īut if you actually want to enhance your experience with Virtual Audio, you could add Jackaudio. There is a current project to make a virtual audio driver solution via python afaik, but that one currently only works on Linux, so Windows Python wont run it. Most projects on Github to make a Virtual Audio Driver are very old and not-compiled.
