I was wondering if this virtual audio cable works to send audio from Microsoft Edge to a DAW/VST host?==>

I know this will route anything from the audio output (e.g browser) to wherever you want as I use it.

ta mate,
I can do some shenanigans with my soundcards
if I really need to

Took me a bit of head scratching at first, but the way it works is;

Set the main windows audio out to Speakers (VB Audio Virtual Cable)

Set the audio input in your sequencer to Cable Output (VB Audio Virtual Cable)

Set the audio output on your sequencer to whatever soundcard/interface you're using.

In your mixer (or wherever) choose the input.

I did it with a right old soundcard coniption
-now using 3 cards at once

I think I do want try this audio cable at some time though
