Hi, I will note I have already done some searching here, so apologies if I have missed something. I'm sure this may have been asked in different ways, so apologies!
WinampI am hosting a weekly quiz (with a few music rounds, hence the need for audio), and stumbled across this awesome software, and it's certainly upped the production. I'm currently using OBS Studio with:
  • The Virtual Cam plugin to output video to Zoom
  • Touch Panel and WebSockets for control
  • ChromaCam for background removal
  • VB-Cable to take audio from Winamp into OBS
My audio setup is:
  • The Winamp Plugin has a simplified user interface. Only one slider for adjusting the maximum amplification. The maximum output level is 0dB. The GUI was designed by LimeFlavour based on the idea and colorscheme of Sinkmusic. Thanks to Hannes Druener for using his MacBook and testing.
  • Download free plugins for Winamp in DSP/Effect category, all Winamp plugins directory on WinampHeritage.com.

Winamp AVS plugin for OBS on Mac I've always been interested in motion graphics. I got my start playing around with the AVS system on the old Winamp 2 and the early versions of Winamp 5. Ever wanted to know how to do internet radio using Winamp and SHOUTcast DSP Plugin? Full guide: https://help.radio.co/live-broadcasting/windows-pc-software/w.

  • Winamp output to 'Speakers (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • OBS scene contains Audio Output Capture monitoring 'Speakers (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • Monitoring device: 'Speakers (Realtek Hi Definition Audio)'
All of this is working fine, when I monitor within OBS out my local speakers, it all works fine and sounds great. However...
Within OBS to get the sound to Zoom, as I understand it, I have to basically push my monitoring audio out, because OBS is meant for streaming to a service? To that end I have set:
  • Monitoring Device to 'VoiceMeeter Aux Input (2- VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
  • Zoom microphone to 'CABLE output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable)'
I understand what's happening here, and while it 'works' it sounds terrible. As I understand it, my constraints here are:
  • Zoom is optimised to send audio as if it's from a microphone, and so music sources just will sound bad, that's the way it is
  • OBS is meant for streaming to a service, not REALLY for relaying to Zoom, so I have to sent the monitor output and not the actual capture?
Winamp ObsWinamp ObsI feel that the drop in quality is from Zoom, not the output itself?
So what I'm asking is:
  • Is my setup correct?
  • Can I improve the audio in any way? Perhaps using screen sharing in Zoom to monitor an output from OBS rather than passing it through as a microphone input?
  • Any suggestions for improvement?

Thank you!

LoudMax is available as VST 2.4 Plugin for Windows and Mac OS X, Audio Unit Plugin for Mac OS X, LADSPA Plugin for Linux x86 and as Winamp Plugin.
A SSE2-capable CPU is necessary (Pentium 4 / AMD Athlon 64 or newer).
The Mac OS X Plugins are 'Universal Binaries' with support for Intel Mac.
The Audio Unit version was built with Symbiosis from NuEdge Development.
The version for MAC OS Catalina was created with the friendly support of the guys from PlugInGuru.
For the users of older MAC OS a legacy version is available.
The Linux Plugin has no meters since LADSPA doesn´t support a custom GUI. But it supports 5.1 surround modes. See README file in the LADSPA zip package for further informations.
The Winamp Plugin also supports 5.1 surround. Built-in stereo overdrive protection avoids distortions in a subsequent stereo downmix.
The Winamp Plugin has a simplified user interface. Only one slider for adjusting the maximum amplification. The maximum output level is 0dB.
The GUI was designed by LimeFlavour based on the idea and colorscheme of Sinkmusic.
Thanks to Hannes Druener for using his MacBook and testing.

Thanks to PlugInGuru for hosting the MAC files.
Inter-Sample Peak Detection:
The higher the frequency, the greater the probability that the true peak will be between two digital audio samples. These true peak overshoots can be up to 3 dB for proper band-limited audio and even much more for pathological signals. This can become a problem not only with poor D/A converters, but also with subsequent sample rate conversions, e.g. from 44.1 to 48 kHz or vice versa, and the use of audio compression such as MP3 or AAC.
For more information see the 'Tutorials' section.
When ISP is turned on, four additional samples are calculated between every two samples present. This reduces true peak overshoots for proper band-limited audio to 0.2 dB and for pathological signals to 0.5 dB.
ITU-R BS.1770: There are coefficients given in this recommendation for the calculation of inter-sample peaks. Unfortunately these coefficients do not seem to be optimal for limiters. They have a negative effect on transients and lead to high overshoots in true peak meters that use higher quality upsampling. Therefore LoudMax uses optimized coefficients that do not affect transients and reduce the overshoots to similar values with all true peak meters tested. The downside is that BS.1770 calibrated true peak meters will also detect overshoots of up to 0.2 dB with LoudMax ISP detection. So if you need to guarantee a true peak level of -1.0 dB for example, set the output level to -1.2 dB or even -1.5 dB.
Using ISP will double the CPU utilization and increase latency by 6 samples.
LoudMax changes the latency dynamically when ISP is switched. Note that most hosts do not adjust latency compensation while playing, but at the next stop/start.
