Audio Output Manager

Mugglez · 11-18-2009, 02:51 PM

This is kinda off, but I like to listen to music game and vent all at the same time. I want to be able to play music thru my speakers but make my game sound and vent go to a pair of usb headphones.

If anyone knows of a program that will allow me to do this please let me know. I've tried changing the output in the audio properties but as soon as I change it ventrilo changes where its sound comes from. I've also tried to set ventrilo to use the usb headphones only in the settings.

Thanks,
~Mugglez

for ventrilo
in setup, set the output device to the usb headset.

for your other programs you will need to set the output device to how you like.

I've done that and it still wants to play thru the speakers.
