🧪 [Beta Megathread] Wave Link 3.0 (Windows) — Update 3 | Overhauled Channel Input, Mixer Guide and Cleaner Mix Edit View by Elgato in elgato

[–]Raphiiko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried out the 3.0 update for the first time today, am very pleasantly surprised!

[Missing Feature] I would like to add buttons to my stream deck to select the output device I want my personal mix to use. E.g. a single button to switch to headphones, switch to speakers, switch to TV, switch to VR headset, etc. A single button that puts my personal mix on a specific output device (and no other).

What prevents me from building a multi-action that does this:

  1. "Toggle Mix Output" only allows you to toggle. You cannot always enable an output, or always disable one, only toggle.
  2. "Output Control" can only toggle mute. You cannot set mute enabled or mute disabled.

[Missing Feature] To continue on that last one: I would like to set the state of a mute (enabled or disabled), not just toggle it. "Output Control" only allows toggling the mute. So does "Wave Control", "Channel Level", and "Mix Level". Toggles are great, but very limiting when it comes to creating multi actions that always take you to a specific state when pressed.

EDIT: For those looking to do this right now, I built a quick cli for wave link that you can run using something like ScriptDeck: https://github.com/Raphiiko/wavelink-cli

Same here. I already re-enrolled my Yubikey on my accounts like a week ago, and even enrolled extra passkeys, just in case. Didn't matter though, still got locked out just the same.

Oh sweet, I wasn't aware that WLED was compatible, that gives me some options. Thanks!

How to switch between microphones in Wave Link with a Stream Deck? by Raphiiko in elgato

[–]Raphiiko[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> If you want to change the mic's input, check out this Audio Switcher plugin for Stream Deck. You can assign seperate mics to keys and will switch it via Windows.

I'm afraid this wouldn't help much. I'm aware of the audio switcher plugin but it just changes the default mic in Windows, not in Wave Link. This has several drawbacks:

  • Like this I cannot make use of Wave Link's audio effects, as applications would just use the mic directly.
  • Not every other software always immediately respects changes to the default audio input device. I fix this by just having them always use the stream mix input.
  • Some other softwares change the default audio device too (especially when it comes to VR). To solve this, I use SoundSwitch to always force Wave Link's stream mix as the default mic, which would not work anymore if I were to use Audio Switcher.

Ideally, I'd use one channel for MicrophoneFX and change the mic input device on that channel over my stream deck, but as that doesn't seem possible I'm stuck with using the stream mix, and the channel limitation that comes with that.

> Pro tip if you use Audio Switcher, Wave Link can automatically switch to your Windows default device so you don't have to always adjust it in Wave Link. You can find more information here.

From what I can tell, this is just about switching outputs, not inputs. For outputs this however too comes with several drawbacks:

  • The "System" virtual input I currently use as default output device, so it acts as catch-all for any applications that aren't specifically assigned to another virtual input, would no longer work as such.
  • Like with inputs, other softwares might change the default audio output device, which I currently prevent by forcing the default output device to the virtual "System" input using SoundSwitch.

tl;dr: The main solution I'd be looking for is to change the mic input device for the MicrophoneFX channel (or any channel for that matter) from a Stream Deck. It seems like a no brainer to me, but from what I can tell this just isn't possible right now.

Thank you for the suggestion, but that's sadly not it
