Auto save last used audio out or option of 2 audio outputs

[ruffpl]

I use on my pc (win10) 2 audio outputs that are not jacks from integrated soundcard. One is going by hdmi from gpu to tv, second is going by usb to Maudio audio interface and into amplifier. Always when I turn on pc FxSound audio output switches to Maudio. Is there a way to make it remember last audio out that was selected (hdmi) or even create some kind of mix that there will be both working audio outs / I remember there was stereo mix available in Realtek and win7.

Hi ruffpl,

@ruffpl

Always when I turn on pc FxSound audio output switches to Maudio. Is there a way to make it remember last audio out that was selected

There were plans to integrate a function like this into the program:

Option to Set Default Playback Devices and Presets That Automatically Switch When Using Selected Apps

The idea here being that if you could say set your Playback device to headphones and preset to Music when running Spotify for example. And as you started playing music on Spotify FxSound would automatically swap the playback device and preset to match what you’ve set for the Spotify app.

…But then in August this year, development was discontinued:

Discontinuing Active Development of FxSound

Earlier this year we decided to make FxSound free for everyone. Since then hundreds of thousands of new users have gotten free access to better sound. Our hope was that we’d be able to rely on user donations to support further development of the FxSound software. Unfortunately we’re just not making enough to do so. We will continue to do our best to help you all with technical support issues here on the forum, but we can no longer afford to make new developments for FxSound. I’d like to thank…

Vijay gave this advice:

@bvijay

In Control Panel->Sound, can you please check if FxSound Speakers is configured as Default Communication Device.

@bvijay

From FxSound Settings → General, uncheck the option

This will make output switch based on user preference and across sleep/wakeup cycles the user selected output will remain unchanged.

@ruffpl

or even create some kind of mix that there will be both working audio outs

There’s no way to do this in FxSound, but, there are two things you could try:

• Enabling Stereo Mix in Windows (see first link below, shared by @Antman);
• Installing VoiceMeeter (Banana) and using multiple inputs (see second link below).

Setting up with VoiceMeeter

Is there any option to setup FxSound with Voicemeeter Banana ?
