Virtual Audio Cable (VAC) is a software developed by Eugene Muzychenko specifically designed for Windows systems. As someone who frequently works with audio applications and often needs to route audio signals between different programs, I was excited to see how this software could streamline my workflow.

Upon first installing VAC, I was immediately impressed by the sleek and user-friendly interface. The software creates a set of virtual audio devices, each of which simulates an audio adapter that internally connects the output to the input, creating an audio loopback. This allows you to route audio signals between different applications simply by playing the sound to the output of one virtual device and recording from the input of another.

One of the standout features of VAC for me was the ability to use each side of a virtual audio device by multiple audio applications at the same time. If two or more apps play sounds to the same playback endpoint, the sounds are mixed, and the result is transmitted to the recording side. If two or more apps record from the same endpoint, each app gets a copy of the sound. This makes it easy to route audio signals between different programs and mix sounds from multiple sources.

In addition to its routing capabilities, VAC also offers a range of other useful features. The software delivers audio signals completely inside the computer, so no audio hardware is required (it can even be used on a virtual server with no audio adapter). The audio transfer is bitperfect, with no quality loss, making it suitable for audiophile applications. And if all the conditions are met, the signal latency is very low.

Overall, I found Virtual Audio Cable to be an incredibly useful tool for anyone working with audio applications. The software is easy to use, packed with useful features, and allows you to route audio signals between different programs with ease. I would highly recommend Virtual Audio Cable to anyone looking to streamline their audio workflow and make the most of their audio applications.
