Can I use VoxBoost AI with Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet?

Yes, using a virtual audio cable. VoxBoost AI processes your microphone in the browser, and you route that output into Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet via VB-Cable (Windows, free) or BlackHole (Mac, free). Once installed, set VoxBoost AI to output to the virtual cable, then select that cable as your microphone in your conferencing app. Setup takes about five minutes.

What is a virtual audio cable and why do I need one?

A virtual audio cable is a software driver that creates a fake audio device on your computer — one app writes audio to it, another reads from it, like a software patch cable. It bridges browser-based audio processing tools like VoxBoost AI with video conferencing apps that expect a physical microphone input.

Does this setup work on Mac and Windows?

Yes. On Windows, use VB-Cable (free, from vb-audio.com). On Mac, use BlackHole (free, open source). Both create virtual audio devices that work with any app accepting a microphone input — including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, and Discord.

Will routing through VoxBoost AI add noticeable delay to my calls?

VoxBoost AI's processing adds roughly 20–40ms of latency — comparable to a standard VoIP codec. The virtual cable adds another 5–10ms. Total roundtrip latency is well within acceptable ranges and should not cause echo or timing issues on calls.

How to Set Up VoxBoost AI for Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet Calls

April 30, 2026 · 7 min read

VoxBoost AI runs in your browser, but with a small bridge — called a virtual microphone — you can route the cleaned-up audio directly into Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, or any other meeting app. Once it's set up, every call you take automatically benefits from VoxBoost's noise gate, suppressor, and voice enhancer. This guide walks through the setup on both Mac and Windows in under 10 minutes.

What You'll Need

One virtual audio cable (free), the VoxBoost AI tab open in Chrome or Edge, and the meeting app of your choice. That's it. No paid software, no installations beyond the audio cable driver.

Step 1: Install a Virtual Audio Cable

On Mac: Install BlackHole (free, open source) from existential.audio. Choose the 2-channel version. Once installed, it appears as both an input and output device in your audio settings.

On Windows: Install VB-Cable from vb-audio.com. It's donation-ware. After install, restart your computer so the driver loads cleanly.

Both options create a "virtual cable" — a fake audio device that any app can write to or read from, like a software-only patch cable.

Step 2: Open VoxBoost AI

Open voxboostai.com in Chrome, Edge, or Safari. Grant microphone permission when prompted. Choose your physical microphone as the input (your headset, USB mic, or laptop mic).

Turn on the noise gate and the voice enhancer. If you're not sure where to start, see our companion guide on how a noise gate works and what settings to use. The default presets are tuned for spoken voice and work well in most rooms.

Step 3: Route the Output to the Virtual Cable

In VoxBoost AI's output settings, choose the virtual cable you installed (BlackHole 2ch on Mac, CABLE Input on Windows) as the destination. Now the cleaned audio is flowing into the virtual cable instead of out to your speakers.

Important: monitor with caution. Don't route the output to your physical speakers if your microphone is also picking them up — you'll create a feedback loop. Use headphones for monitoring, or simply trust the meter and don't monitor.

Step 4: Tell Your Meeting App to Use the Virtual Cable as the Mic

Zoom: Settings → Audio → Microphone → choose "BlackHole 2ch" (Mac) or "CABLE Output" (Windows). Turn off Zoom's own background noise suppression — VoxBoost is already doing that work, and stacking the two creates artifacts.

Microsoft Teams: Settings → Devices → Microphone → choose the virtual cable. Same advice: disable Teams' built-in noise suppression under Settings → Devices → Noise suppression → Off.

Google Meet: click the three-dot menu in a meeting → Settings → Audio → Microphone → choose the virtual cable. Meet doesn't expose noise-suppression toggles, but its processing is light and doesn't fight VoxBoost.

Step 5: Test the Loop

Hop into a personal Zoom or Meet call and record a quick clip. Listen back. You should hear a clean, focused voice with very little room noise between words. If you hear gating artifacts (words being cut off), loosen the gate threshold in VoxBoost. If you hear background noise leaking through during your voice, increase the suppressor strength.

Common Problems and Fixes

"My meeting app doesn't see the virtual cable." Restart the meeting app. On Windows, restart the whole computer if the driver was just installed.

"My voice sounds robotic or tinny." The noise suppressor is too aggressive. Drop it one notch in VoxBoost.

"There's a delay / echo." Buffer size is set too high in your OS audio settings, or you've accidentally enabled the meeting app's own noise suppression on top of VoxBoost. Disable one or the other.

"The first word of every sentence gets cut off." The noise gate's attack time is too slow. Set it to 1–5 ms.

Once It's Working, You Forget About It

The beautiful thing about this setup is that once it's configured, you don't think about it anymore. Open VoxBoost in a tab, leave it running, and every Zoom, Teams, or Meet call automatically uses the cleaned audio. Total setup time on a fresh machine is under 10 minutes.
