So I should capture the desktop audio and then put in my own microphone audio separately?

I have iShowU. The problem was it was super low the volume.
And I think I may have run a line from the headphone jack to the microphone input.
So what I'm trying to do is complicated. I want 4 scenes. Import Zoom to all four scenes, switch between them with Hotkeys but the Zoom is duplicated. Because it shows up side by side and I want it to be formatted differently visually. So can i replicate that with other imported desktop audio?

You can't run a line from a headphone jack to a microphone input, those are at different levels. You'll get low or no audio.
There's no connection between whatever arrangement or duplication of window capture sources you want (to change SBS to some other arrangement) and the audio device(s) you select for capture. Window and Display captures don't include audio.
As long as your machine is powerful enough to do it, you can copy a source as a duplicate and crop it differently if you need to do so for your arrangement. Your audio will not be affected, as those are separate sources. Your audio and video may desynchronize if duplicating the source makes the scene too complicated for your machine to run without dropping frames.

I have a similar issue. I have set up a "multi output device" using iShowU to record sound using OBS on my Mac. It works fine with online videos such as YouTube, but when I try to record a Zoom meeting it will only pick up sound from the microphone, not from the multi output device.
Im having this issue as well. I can get sound from Zoom into OBS, but its hard for me to hear the person. Its very low and I cannot figure out how to make it louder. Another thing is I have a slight echo on my microphone when I speak...
I have iShowU installed, set up properly within MIDI, SOUND PREF and within ZOOM. Just the above issue is bothersome...
