I can run a copy of Cantabile with my guitar modelling VST’s running off the AXE IO, then set up Yousician with the AXR ASIO driver, listening to the input port connected to my AXE IO. This also allows me to work around the shared ASIO driver problem. But what if your interface doesn’t have loopback We show you how to. Obviously, it’s not a digital recording, but it works great and there’s no chance of creating a massive feedback loop When you need to record audio from one application to another, loopback is the solution. I have line outs on the back of the Axe I/O into a pair of inputs on the AXR. The way I do this is to set the audio source of windows, to my Axe I/O. However, other types of audio applications might find loopback mode useful. The loopback input records computer playback even if your sound device lacks its own stereo mix or similar input. Choose the loopback input for the computer playback device you will be listening to (for example, 'Speakers (loopback)'. I didn’t think it was for the other way around, i.e. WASAPI provides loopback mode primarily to support acoustic echo cancellation (AEC). On Windows, you can choose the Windows WASAPI Audio Host and then the input in the Recording Device box.

You wouldn’t normally be able to do this as the DAW would lock the ASIO drivers. VoiceMeeter (Windows) Jack (Windows and Mac) iShowU Audio Capture (Mac only) Soundflower (Mac only) Black Hole (Mac only) Rogue Amoeba Loopback (Mac only).

My understanding of the loopback function was that it output the audio from ASIO drivers Line Outs, into the windows audio drivers stream, so you could then stream from an application using the windows audio devices (non-ASIO), and be able to hear the ASIO output.
