Valorant Audio Settings

How to configure Valorant audio for ValVoice

Once ValVoice and VB-CABLE are installed, you must tell the Valorant game client to listen to the virtual audio cable instead of your physical microphone.

How to set it up

  1. Launch Valorant and open the Settings menu.
  2. Navigate to the Audio tab, then click on Voice Chat.
  3. Find the Input Device dropdown.
  4. Change the Input Device from "Default" to CABLE Output (VB-Audio Virtual Cable).
  5. Leave your Output Device as your normal headphones/speakers so you can still hear the game.

Common configuration mistakes

  • Setting the game Output Device to CABLE: This will route game audio into your microphone. Always keep the Output Device set to your headphones.
  • Using Push-To-Talk: If Valorant requires push-to-talk, teammates won't hear ValVoice unless the key is held. Consider switching to Voice Activity, or holding your PTT key when ValVoice is speaking.

Key Takeaways

  • Valorant Input Device must be "CABLE Output".
  • Valorant Output Device must remain your normal headphones.
  • Push-to-Talk settings may interrupt ValVoice playback if not managed correctly.
