What is Voicemeeter Banana?

Voicemeeter Banana brings hardware audio and application sound into one Windows mixing console. Its three physical and two virtual inputs let you combine microphones, playback devices and software audio, then route them to three hardware and two virtual outputs. This suits combining speech and PC audio for recording or sending different mixes to connected devices and applications.

Input controls include a compressor, gate, limiter and mute/solo, while output buses have a parametric equalizer. The integrated recorder/player can capture or play audio without leaving the mixer. The publisher provides a step-by-step manual for selecting devices and configuring audio routing.

The linked 2.1.3.0 ZIP package includes both standard Voicemeeter and Voicemeeter Banana. Setup must run with administrator privileges and requires a reboot; this is not a portable application. Banana is donationware, with a license or continued-evaluation invitation after 30 days. The publisher requires paid licenses for professional organizational use where users are not expected to pay individually; optional features are excluded from the all-functions-free statement.

Good to know

  • After 30 days, the About box invites you to buy a license or continue evaluating the program.
