Re: [Sursound] any experience with VAC - in multichannel

Jim, I've used VAC, but never for 7.1. Eugene used to be quite helpful, if you reach out to him. I must admin that I largely abandoned VAC in favor of the VB-Audio cables and VoiceMeeter. VoiceMeeter comes in several versions, which support multi-channel devices. Also, Vincent Burel (author)

The RF issue of range, carrier frequency, channel width is quite separate from the deliverable audio path. The Opus audio codec has revolutionized audio coding. It's able to deliver full-bandwidth audio at bitrates not much more than what was once typical of a telephone call. This means that
