But the output sliders are on the far right. Keep your inputs and outputs separate in your mind! That is a source of confusion for many, since one slider is handling input level, but naturally affects the output level, so people think it is an output slider. Likewise, having Voicemeeter as the default playback device in Windows makes your YouTube videos and media players play through that VAIO slider. If you have Voicemeeter set as your default recording device in Windows, then it will get its signals from there.

Regular Voicemeeter just has the B button with one output - the VAIO (Virtual Audio In/Out). If you are using Voicemeeter Pro “Banana” then there are two B outputs - a B1 and a B2, since that version ads a second virtual out called an “Aux”.

Just remember that and you’ll keep your head straight! The two output systems are entirely separate. The A buttons are for “Auditioning” or monitoring and the B buttons are for “Broadcast”. Slider 2 can be whatever - even a virtual cable. That’s how I have it set up.) If you want a single mic in the “center” click the “Mono” button. So, in slider one, you want to have it set to nothing at all, and it will adapt and show “A1 ASIO Input (1+2)” - that is your mic coming in through the 2i2. They get their signal from that A1 selection. That has no effect on the ASIO outputs, however. If you are sending the two outputs on the back of the Focusrite to an amp, keep in mind that the big knob will also control its output. Now your monitoring output is set, and the whole system follows the ASIO buffer settings. Those are adjustable by typing “Focusrite” in the Windows button search and it will show “Focusrite USB 2.0 Audio Control Panel” - which is pretty minimal.

Right - set the A1 item to “ASIO Focusrite USB 2.0 Audio Driver” and it will take on the buffer settings of the 2i2.

Heck yeah - that is the exact setup I have in the livingroom here - a Scarlett 2i2 and Voicemeeter.
