Question / Help Need help with VAC and Adobe Audition

I followed this guide here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzjvjnHsUrk

Everything works great. My fan noises are completely gone as is my computer humming in the background. The problem is that I can't get OBS to detect the sound from virtual audio cable for some reason. I set the input to Line 1 virtual audio cable, and it doesn't work. Yet when I record and play back from adobe audition, it works perfectly.

I'd appreciate anyone who can give me some insight into what else I need to do or overlooked.

make sure all your audio formats are the same in OBS, windows, VAC and audition (if avail).

then make sure the correct output is selected in VAC for your mic.

I think I see the problem. I noticed in the video it said [01S] Line 1 for virtual audio cable, but in my Adobe Audition it says [02S] and I don't get a 01S option. How would I fix this?

EDIT: Nevermind. I managed to make it 01S but that also did nothing.

This is how I have Audition set up with VB-CABLE:

As long as your mic is the input and the virtual playback device is your output, you should be able to select associated the virtual recording device as your mic in OBS and have everything pop out fine. Be sure to arm for record and monitor input in Audition.

This isn't something that I deal with. I assist with OBS as attempt to assist with 3rd party utilities that plug into OBS but I have not had the need to ever use Audition or VAC.

That being said, it seems that you have both input and output set to input. I will say again, I dont know what "right" looks like here, just try and read and maybe use some common sense. VAC in to in, VAC out to out. Just my thoughts.

Huh, that is weird... my adobe audition setup looks vastly different.

@dping
I've been definitely trying that with no success. Is there anything you'd recommend to remove fan noise?

FWIW my screenshot is from the current version of Audition. I assume you're running an older copy.
