There are many ways to connect with your guests during your podcast or broadcast. This tutorial will explain how to use VB-Cable software to sync your Zoom calls with Spreaker Studio on Windows. If you're running Spreaker Studio on Mac / OS X, please take a look at the Mac / OS X Tutorial.

1. Download VB-Cable for Windows and run the installation process.

2. On the final step, you'll be asked to restart your computer. Restart and launch Spreaker Studio in order to follow the next steps.

3. Open Zoom and click on Settings.

4. Click on the Audio settings.

Besides "Speaker" (the audio output) please select CABLE Input (VB-Audio Virtual Cable), while on the drop-down menu next to "Microphone" (the audio input) select your primary microphone.

5. Back in Spreaker Studio for Desktop, in the Microphone & Sources area, below your microphone selected in the first source, choose CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable) in another free source. (You can have up to four sources on Spreaker Studio!). Then, make sure to click on "monitor" in order to be able to hear the Zoom call through your headphones.

A quick explanation: In the Monitor and Mute section, enable monitor in order to be able to hear audio from a particular source through your headphones or speakers. Enable mute so that a particular source will be muted to your audience. In other words, the monitor button controls what you hear, whereas the mute button controls what your audience hears.

6. Start recording your podcast in Spreaker Studio. If you have any problems, you can drop us a line through Spreaker Studio's "Report An Issue" feature.
