    Remote Meetings

    <<<<<<< HEAD

    Remote interpreting relies on capturing system audio and feeding it into Sight-Terp Assist via VB-Cable plus a hardware splitter path; the old Sight-Terp Audio Driver instructions are no longer published.

    Note: Install VB-Cable on macOS and Windows to create a virtual audio input, then pair it with the TRS-splitter + USB adapter described below.

    macOS VB-Cable routing

    Configure system audio capture:

    1. Download VB-Cable, run the installer, and approve any macOS security prompts.
    2. Open Audio MIDI Setup, create a Multi-Output Device that includes your built-in speakers and VB-Cable, and set it as the default output.
    3. Set VB-Cable as the input source for Sight-Terp Assist (refresh the device list if needed).
    4. Use your conferencing software output device to stream through the Multi-Output Device so VB-Cable sees the system audio.

    Windows VB-Cable routing

    Configure system audio capture:

    1. Download VB-Cable, run the installer as administrator, and reboot if prompted.
    2. Open Settings > System > Sound > Sound Control Panel, set VB-Cable as the default playback device, and ensure your headset is still available for monitoring.
    3. Set VB-Cable as the input device in Sight-Terp Assist refreshing the device list after changes.
    4. Optionally route conference audio through VB-Cable + a repeater app if you need to send it back to your headphones.

    Hardware capture path

    TRS splitter + USB adapter:

    1. Plug the male jack of a TRS splitter into your computer's speaker output port.
    2. Plug your headphone jack into one of the TRS splitter's female ports so you can continue monitoring.
    3. Connect the other female port to a TRS audio cable.
    4. Plug the other end of the TRS audio cable into the microphone port of a USB adapter.
    5. Insert the USB adapter back into your computer's USB port.
    6. In the Sight-Terp choose the USB adapter as the audio input source (refresh your device list if needed).
    7. Check that your headphones and microphone still work correctly in your video conferencing software.
